Recipe Introduction


Tiny tarts make the perfect size sweet-treat for your next dinner party or special weekend brunch.





List of Ingredients



• 1/2 cup water
  
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  
• 2 cups fresh or frozen, thawed blueberries
  
• For the Tart Shells:
  
• 2 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
  
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  
• 1 teaspoon salt
  
• 6 tablespoons canola oil
  
• 1/3 cup water
  






Instructions



1. To prepare tart shells, in a medium bowl, stir together flour, sugar, and salt. Stir in oil and water until mixture forms a dough.
   
2. Divide dough in half. Roll each half into a ball. Wrap each ball in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
   
3. Preheat oven to 425F°. On a floured surface, using a floured rolling pin, roll each dough half out to a large circle. Using a 3-inch round biscuit cutter, cut out 6 circles from each piece of dough. Fit dough circles into twelve 2 1/2-inch tart pans and press into place. Place pans on baking sheets.
   
4. Bake tart shells until golden, about 15 minutes. Place baking sheets on wire racks and cool. Remove shells from pans.
   
5. In a large saucepan, combine water, sugar, cornstarch, and cinnamon. Bring mixture to a boil over medium heat and simmer, stirring, for 8 minutes. Stir in blueberries gently. Remove from heat. Divide filling evenly among shells. Chill completely before serving.
