Blueberry Butter Tarts Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Mix flour, butter, and powdered sugar together until a dough forms. Press dough into a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Let cool slightly.
• Meanwhile, toss blueberries with cornstarch and place in a saucepan over low heat. Add sugar and lemon extract. Simmer, stirring gently to avoid crushing the berries, until sugar dissolves and filling thickens, 5 to 8 minutes.
• Pour blueberry filling over the cooled crust. Let cool before slicing.

Steps:

• Roll out pastry and cut to fit tart tins (I use mini tarts but you can use muffin tins-this will increase the cooking time) preheat oven to 375°F.
• In large bowl, whisk egg, syrup, lemon juice and vanilla.
• In medium bowl, mix sugar and flour.
• Stir into egg mixture with butter.
• Divide berries into uncooked pastry shells.
• Pour egg mixture to top of shells.
• Bake 18-23 minutes.
• Remove tarts from tins immediately or the sugar will harden and they will stick tarts will firm up as they cool.

Steps:

• Special equipment: a 9-inch springform pan
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Coat a 9-inch springform pan with cooking spray.
• Combine 1 cup of the flour, 1 1/2 tablespoons of the granulated sugar and the salt in a food processor and pulse to combine. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse meal with some large lumps. Add the egg yolks and pulse until blended.
• Place the dough in the springform pan, and press it evenly against the bottom and about 1 inch up the sides. Toss 2 1/2 cups of the berries, the lemon zest, juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, remaining 1 tablespoon flour and remaining 1/3 cup granulated sugar in a medium bowl. Pour the berry mixture into the shell and bake until vigorously bubbling, about 1 hour. Remove from the oven and immediately top with the remaining 1 1/2 cups blueberries.
• Just before serving, dust with confectioners' sugar by tapping it through a fine-mesh sieve. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine flour, sugar and salt; cut in butter until crumbly. Add vinegar, tossing with a fork to moisten. Press onto bottom and up the sides of a lightly greased 9-in. tart pan with removable bottom. , For filling, lightly smash 2 cups blueberries in a bowl. Combine the sugar, flour, cinnamon and nutmeg; stir into smashed blueberries. Spread mixture evenly into crust; sprinkle with 1 cup of the remaining whole blueberries. Place tart pan on a baking sheet., Bake at 400° for 40-45 minutes or until crust is browned and filling is bubbly. Remove from the oven; arrange remaining berries over top. Cool on a wire rack. Store in the refrigerator.

Steps:

• Set oven to 375°F (set oven to bottom-lowest rack).
• Prepare a cookie sheet, leave the foil liners on the shells and place on sheet.
• In a bowl, whisk together egg with syrup, juice and vanilla.
• In another bowl stir sugar and flour.
• Stir/whisk the flour mixture into the egg mixture along with the butter.
• Divide the berries equally among the shells.
• Pour the egg mixture over the berries, filling to the top.
• Bake for about 17-23 minutes (tarts will firm up when they are cooled).
• Can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 days.

Steps:

• To make crust: In a mixer, cream butter and sugar together until smooth and fluffy. Mix in yolks, vanilla and salt. Add flour all at once and mix just to combine. Add cream or milk and mix just until smooth. Form into a ball, flatten into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate, at least 1 hour or overnight.
• On a floured surface, roll dough into a circle to fit a 10-inch tart pan. Transfer to pan and lightly press in, making sure dough rises about 1/4 inch above rim. Refrigerate in pan 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake until barely golden, about 30 minutes. Check halfway through baking and prick any bubbles with a sharp knife. Let cool to room temperature.
• To make filling: whisk together sugar and cornstarch to remove any lumps. Whisk in egg, yolks, melted butter, buttermilk, vanilla or vanilla scrapings, salt and nutmeg, and pour into tart shell. Sprinkle surface evenly with 1 1/2 cups blueberries.
• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Bake tart until surface is barely golden and still wobbly in the center, 35 to 45 minutes. Remove and let cool to room temperature. Serve at room temperature or lightly chilled, with a dollop of whipped cream (if using) and remaining blueberries scattered over each serving.
