Pro Tips

#1

Fold the curd and custard together until just combined to maintain the desired consistency.

#2

Ensure the pastry edges are firmly sealed to prevent the filling from leaking during cooking.

#3

Work in batches to avoid overcrowding the air fryer basket for even browning.

#4

Cool the bars on a wire rack to keep the pastry crispy.
