Cornstarch would definitely work as a thickening agent, but I don’t know if it would allow the tart to set firm the way gelatin does. That being said, it never hurts to try! If you give it a go I’d love to hear how it turned out.

Do you think cornstarch would work instead?

Hi Ameya, I have not tried to do any substituting for the gelatin; that’s what helps the tart stay firm.

Could you substitute something for the gelatin? I prefer not to use it.

Hi Jasmine, Yes, I always prick the dough before blind baking, sorry if I forgot that in the steps! And a mango tart sounds delicious!

Hi, I was wondering if I needed to prick the dough before baking it. I am making a mango tart with this tart dough recipe

I’m glad to hear that the orange tart turned out so good. My daughter Brianna didn’t like the lemon cream (too tart for her), and immediately asked it I could make it again with orange instead. =)
