Raspberry Tartlets

These elegant raspberry tartlets feature a buttery, flaky crust filled with luscious raspberry jam and topped with fresh raspberries and a dusting of powdered sugar—perfect for a delightful dessert.

📋 Ingredients:

For the Tart Crust:

  • 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • ¼ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 2 tablespoons ice water

For the Raspberry Filling:

  • ¾ cup raspberry jam
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice

For Topping:

  • 1 cup fresh raspberries
  • 1 tablespoon powdered sugar (for dusting)

👩‍🍳 Directions:

  1. Make the Crust:
    • In a food processor or mixing bowl, combine flour, butter, and powdered sugar. Pulse or mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
    • Add egg yolk and ice water, mixing until dough forms. Wrap in plastic and chill for 30 minutes.
  2. Bake the Tart Shells:
    • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
    • Roll out the dough on a floured surface and cut into circles to fit mini tartlet pans. Press the dough into the pans and trim excess.
    • Prick the bottom with a fork and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden. Let cool completely.
  3. Assemble the Tartlets:
    • Warm the raspberry jam with lemon juice until smooth. Spoon into the cooled tart shells.
    • Arrange fresh raspberries on top.
  4. Finishing Touches:
    • Lightly dust with powdered sugar before serving.

💡 Tips:

  • For extra shine, brush the raspberries with a thin layer of warmed apricot jam.
  • Store in the fridge for up to 2 days.
  • Serve with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent treat!
