Ingredients
- Pastry:
- 1-1/3 cups (325 mL) All-purpose flour
- 1/4 tsp. (1 mL) salt
- 1/2 cup (125 mL) butter or margarine
- 3 Tbsp. (45 mL) ice water
- 1 tsp. (5 mL) white vinegar
- Filling:
- 1/2 cup (125 mL) corn syrup
- 1/4 cup (50 mL) brown sugar
- 1 egg (I prefer Omega-3 eggs)
- 2 Tbsp. (30 mL) butter or margarine, melted
- 1 tsp. (5 mL) each vanilla and white vinegar
- 1/2 cup (125 mL) raisins, preferably sultanas
- Note: I sometimes add a few chopped walnuts or pecans to my butter tarts.
Directions
- Preheat oven to 375 F (190 C)
- Spray using non-stick cooking spray, 10 preferably non-stick, muffin tin cups.
- In a medium bowl, blend flour with salt.
- Using your finger tips or pastry cutter, mix in butter/margarine just until large crumbs begin to form.
- Whisk water with vinegar.
- While stirring flour mixture with a fork, gradually add just enough water mixture for dough to come together.
- Gather into a ball and place on a large piece of plastic wrap.
- Fold plastic wrap over top, then use plastic to flatten dough into a disc.
- Seal with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, whisk corn syrup with brown sugar, egg, butter/margarine, vanilla and vinegar.
- Dough is easiest to roll between two sheets of plastic wrap.
- Roll dough no thicker than 1/4 inch (0.5 cm) thick.
- Then cut out 10 (4 inch / 10 cm) circles, using a lightly floured glass or circle cutter.
- Press circles into muffin cups.
- Divide raisins among tart shells.
- Then fill with corn syrup mixture.
- Bake until a deep golden, 22 - 25 minutes.
- Let stand a couple of minutes.
- Then remove to a rack to cool completely.

I've been baking butter tarts for years and your recipe is almost identical to the one I use. I know how good they are and your recipe deserves "5" forks.
