Ingredients
  

For the Tarts
  • 1 package puff pastry, thawed
  • 1 cup blueberries, fresh or frozen
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 large egg, beaten (for egg wash)
For the Lemon Glaze
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1-2 tablespoons lemon juice Adjust to reach desired consistency.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Roll out your thawed puff pastry on a lightly floured surface and cut into four equal squares.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine the blueberries, sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Gently toss to coat the blueberries.
  4. Place the pastry squares on a parchment-lined baking sheet and create a border by making shallow cuts about half an inch from the edge of each square.
  5. Add a generous spoonful of the blueberry filling in the center of each pastry square.
  6. Brush the edges with the beaten egg for a golden color once baked.
Baking
  1. Bake the tarts in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.
Glazing and Serving
  1. While the tarts are baking, mix the powdered sugar and lemon juice together in a small bowl to make the glaze.
  2. Once the tarts are out of the oven and slightly cooled, drizzle the lemon glaze over the top.
  3. Let them cool for a few minutes, then enjoy your heavenly Blueberry Puff Pastry Tarts!

Notes

For substitutions, other fruits like raspberries or strawberries can be used. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days or freeze before baking for up to two months.
