This recipe for jam tarts is so simple to make that my 3-year-old daughter did most of the work. Make sure not to roll the pastry too thin or put too much jam in.

- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cups water

Combine flour, shortening, sugar, and salt in the bowl of a food processor; pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add water; process until it forms a dough ball. Wrap dough ball in plastic wrap; refrigerate until well chilled, at least 30 minutes.
