Maple Syrup ~ Currant Tarts

Savour the flavour 
of Quebec Maple Syrup
in these sweet butter tarts.


 Yields about 20 tarts


Ingredients:

2 eggs
1 cup maple syrup
2/3 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup butter, melted
1 pinch salt
1 cup currants
(Currants may be substitued for walnuts, raisins etc.)


 Sprinkle bottom of unbaked tart shells with some of the currants. 




Whisk eggs in a large bowl, add maple syrup, 
brown sugar, melted butter and salt.

In a saucepan cook this mixture on 
medium heat for 3-4 minutes, 
stirring constantly, to thicken. 
(Do not overcook).  
 Add remaining currants.

Spoon filling into tart shells.

I divide equally into 20 store bought shells.

At my local store in the pastry division, 
they sell the unbaked shells, frozen,  

Bake 350 for 20-30 mins.


Sorry...2 eggs not 3




Enjoy!!


Another tart with less butter
 and no maple syrup,






Thanks for your visit
