Tips:

  • To ensure a flaky crust, use a pastry blender or two knives to cut the butter into the flour until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  • When making the filling, be sure to whisk the eggs and sugar together until they are light and fluffy. This will help to create a smooth, creamy filling.
  • To prevent the butter tarts from becoming too brown, cover them with foil after 15 minutes of baking.
  • Butter tarts can be served warm or cold. If you are serving them warm, be sure to let them cool for a few minutes before eating so that the filling has a chance to set.

Conclusion:

Butter tarts are a delicious and classic Canadian dessert. They are perfect for any occasion, and they are always a hit with family and friends. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make your own butter tarts at home. So what are you waiting for? Give this recipe a try today!
