    Blueberry pie who? These blueberry tarts are way more fun!

    Just kidding, I love a good blueberry pie, but who doesn't love bite-sized desserts like these tarts? I love when desserts are bite-sized cause I always want to try a bunch of different treats at dinner parties!

    I make these a lot during the holidays and everyone loves that they're like mini pies! It's fun to top them with a scoop of ice cream too.

    Something I like most is that they're made with canned pie filling, so they're inexpensive to make (blueberries aren't cheap these days!)

    Ingredients

    • Frozen Tart Shells
    • Canned Blueberry Pie Filling
    • Cornstarch
    • Vanilla Extract
    • Lemon Juice

    See the recipe card below for the ingredient measurements. 

    Ingredients including frozen tart shells, blueberry pie filling, cornstarch, vanilla extract, and lemon juice.

    Step-by-Step Instructions

    Step 1 - Prepare: Preheat the oven to 350° F.

    Step 2 - Mix: To a bowl, mix the canned pie filling and cornstarch. Add the vanilla extract and lemon juice and mix again.

    Filling mixture combined in a bowl.

    Step 3 - Bake: Line two baking sheets with the tart shells (12 on each) and fill the shells ½ full with the blueberry mixture. Bake for 20-22 minutes until the edges are golden. Rest until firm and serve slightly warm or at room temperature.

    Storage

    Store in an airtight container (once room temperature) in the fridge for up to one week or the freezer for up to three months.

    Helpful Tips

    • Don't overfill the tart shells! They will boil over the shells while they bake if there's too much filling in them.
    • Wait to serve until they are fully set/cooled otherwise, they will be runny and fall apart.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Why are my tarts runny?

    They likely are not yet fully set and need more time to rest or not enough cornstarch was used to thicken the filling.

    Why are my tarts falling apart?

    If there is too much filling in the tarts, the shell won't be strong enough to hold them. ½ full is all that's needed.
