Maple Butter Tarts

Maple Butter Tarts

These are a big hit every time I make them. They are an addition to a basket donated at a local fundraiser full of maple products. Sweet with a smooth flavor, they pair well with your favorite vanilla ice cream or whipped cream!

Yield:
16 3-inch tarts
Servings:

Ingredients

  • 16 (3 inch) unbaked tart shells
  • 1 cup raisins
  • ¾ cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup butter, softened
  • 2 eggs
  • ½ cup maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch salt

Directions

Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 2
Place tart shells on a baking sheet; sprinkle raisins evenly into the bottom of tart shells.

Step 3
Beat brown sugar and butter together in a bowl until smooth; whisk in eggs, maple syrup, flour, vanilla extract, and salt. Fill each tart shell 3/4 full with maple syrup mixture.

Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven until filling is set and shells are golden, about 16 minutes. Turn the baking sheet halfway through the baking time for even baking.

Cook’s Notes:

For the pastry, I use the recipe on the Tenderflake(R) shortening package, and freeze any leftover dough. You can also purchase ready-to-bake tart shells in the freezer section of the grocery store.
