Pear-Berry Breakfast Tarts image

When my kids were small, I could never get pancakes on the table while they were all still hot. Then I got the idea for these breakfast tarts. They're a good and simple recipe for any busy family. -Joan Elbourn, Gardner, Massachusetts

Time 1h5m

Yield 10 servings.

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup butter, softened
1 cup sugar, divided
2 large eggs, room temperature
2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 cups chopped peeled pears (about 2 large)
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons water
1/2 cup fresh raspberries
1 large egg white
3 to 5 tablespoons 2% milk, divided
1-1/3 cups confectioners' sugar
Food coloring, optional

Steps:

  • Cream butter and 1/2 cup sugar until light and fluffy, 5-7 minutes. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. In another bowl, whisk flour and baking powder; gradually beat into creamed mixture to form a dough. Divide dough in half; shape each into a rectangle. Wrap and refrigerate 1 hour., Meanwhile, in a small saucepan over medium heat, combine pears and remaining sugar. Cook and stir until sugar is dissolved and pears are softened, 6-8 minutes. In a small bowl, mix cornstarch and water until smooth; stir into pear mixture. Return to a boil, stirring constantly; cook and stir 1-2 minutes or until thickened. Remove from heat; cool. Stir in raspberries., Preheat oven to 350°. On a lightly floured surface, roll half the dough into a 15x8-in. rectangle. Cut into ten 4x3-in. rectangles. Transfer to parchment-lined baking sheets; spoon about 2 tablespoons filling over each pastry to within 1/2 in. of edges. Roll remaining dough into a 15x8-in. rectangle; cut into ten 4x3-in. rectangles and place over filling. Press edges with a fork to seal. Whisk egg white and 1 tablespoon milk; brush over pastries. Bake until golden brown and filling is bubbly, 20-25 minutes., Remove from baking sheets to wire racks to cool. For icing, mix confectioners' sugar and enough of remaining milk to reach desired consistency; tint with food coloring if desired. Spread or drizzle on pastries.

These tarts are a bit too sweet for my taste. I might reduce the amount of sugar next time.

I'm not a big fan of pears, but these tarts changed my mind. The sweetness of the pears paired perfectly with the tartness of the berries.
