Sweet Blackberry Butter Tarts with Lemon Zest
Ingredients
  • 12 (3 inch) unbaked tart shells
  • 1 cup fresh blackberries, rinsed and patted dry
  • 1 lemon, zested
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch salt
Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to a high temperature of 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius).
2
Arrange pre-baked tart shells on a baking sheet to ensure even cooking.
3
Combine blackberries and lemon zest in a small bowl, mashing them together gently to release their flavors.
4
Spoon the blackberry mixture evenly into the tart shells, making sure each shell is filled to the brim.
5
In a separate bowl, whisk together brown sugar, honey, egg, melted butter, vanilla extract, and salt until well combined.
6
Spoon the sugar mixture evenly over the blackberries in each tart shell, creating a uniform layer.
7
Bake the tarts in the preheated oven for 22 to 27 minutes, or until the filling is bubbly and the shells are golden brown.
8
Note that baking times may vary depending on individual preferences for a gooey or firmer filling.
