Raspberry Rhapsody Tarts

  • Author: Chef Sally

Description

Delicate buttery tarts filled with a sweet raspberry compote and topped with fresh raspberries.


Ingredients

Scale

For the Crust:

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 34 tablespoons ice water
  • 2 cups fresh raspberries
  • 1/4 cup raspberry jam
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
  • Powdered sugar for dusting

Instructions

1. Prepare the Crust:

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). In a food processor, combine flour, sugar, and salt. Add chilled butter and pulse until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  2. Gradually add ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until dough comes together. Shape into a disk, wrap in plastic, and chill for 30 minutes.
  3. Roll out dough on a floured surface and cut into circles to fit tart molds. Press dough into molds and trim edges. Prick bottoms with a fork and chill for 10 minutes.
  4. In a saucepan, combine 1 cup raspberries, jam, lemon juice, and cornstarch. Cook over medium heat until thickened, about 5 minutes. Let cool slightly.
  5. Fill tart shells with raspberry compote. Top with remaining fresh raspberries. Brush edges with egg wash.
  6. Bake for 20-25 minutes until crust is golden. Cool on a wire rack, then dust with powdered sugar before serving.
