Ingredients
- 1 roll puff pastry
- 1½ cups chopped strawberries (200-
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
EXTRAS
- 8-10 teaspoons Nutella or chocolate spread
- 1/3 cup mini chocolate chips*
- powdered / icing sugar for dusting
*You can use either or a combination.
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 375F (190C). Grease and flour or spray a medium 6 size muffin tin.
- Roll out the puff pastry (either store bought or Homemade) to a 1/8 inch thickness (I roll mine a bit thicker). Using a round cookie cutter, cut about six 3 1/2-4 inch (9-10cm) circles. Place each circle in the prepared muffin/tart pan, with a fork prick each circle a few times.
- Blind bake the tarts. Cover each shell with parchment paper and add dried beans or pie weights on top, bake for approximately 10 minutes. Remove the tart shells from the oven, remove paper and beans, let cool. if you find that the dough is still quite raw, then bake again for about 3-5 minutes. They may have puffed up, gently flatten with a small shot glass.
- While the tarts are baking, in a medium bowl mix together the chopped strawberries, sugar and lemon juice, set aside.
- Place a teaspoon of the spread or chocolate chips on the bottom of the each pastry, then divide the strawberry filling between the tarts.
- Bake for approximately 7-10 minutes, check after about 5 minutes, if the strawberries are browning too much, then place a piece of foil like a tent over them continue baking. The tarts are done once the pastry is golden.
- Once out of the oven, sprinkle with a few chips, and let cool on a wire rack. Dust with powdered sugar before serving or serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Enjoy!
Notes
- I made 6 tarts with my homemade puff pastry which I halved the recipe. The remaining dough I cut strips twisted them and sprinkled them with parmesan cheese and baked. So good!

- If you wish you could use fresh or frozen blueberries, raspberries or even blackberries. The berries should probably be thawed first because the baking time is not very long. You could use chopped peaches or pears or even apple.
- The baked cooled tarts should be stored in an airtight container (single layer) in the fridge or wrapped well in plastic wrap. They will keep for up to 2-3 days. Unfortunately baked fruit does not store well in the freezer.
