When you think of French pumpkins, there are various types of pumpkins such as Citrouille, Potiron, Potimarron, etc…This recipe uses a pumpkin called Potimarron (close to Japanese chestnut pumpkin) to make a biscuit-based pumpkin tart. I will make I added an accent to the taste by using Lotus Biscoff biscuits, which go well with coffee.
