Ingredients
- All-purpose flour, for dusting
- 2 sheets frozen puff pastry, thawed
- 1 pint blueberries
- 2 cups halved strawberries
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
- 1 lemon, juiced
- Kosher salt
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar, plus more for serving
- 1 tablespoon vanilla
- 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, for garnish
Instructions
- For the tarts: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line 2 sheet pans with parchment paper.
- On a lightly floured work surface, lay out the puff pastry. Cut the puff pastry sheets in half, making 4 rectangles. Place 2 puff pastry rectangles on each sheet pan. Set aside.
- Add the blueberries and strawberries to separate bowls. Divide the granulated sugar, cornstarch and lemon juice between the bowls. Season each with a pinch of salt and stir until well combined.
- Divide the blueberries between 2 of the puff pastry rectangles, leaving a 1/4-inch border on all sides. Do the same with the strawberries and the remaining puff pastry rectangles. Pinch the corners of each rectangle, creating a slight lip. Brush the edges with the cream.
- Bake in the lower half of the oven until golden and crisp, about 20 minutes.
- For the whipped cream: While the tarts bake, add the cream, powdered sugar and vanilla to a large bowl. Using a hand mixer or whisk, whip until soft and billowy. Transfer to a serving bowl and chill until ready to serve.
- Transfer the tarts to a cutting board. Let the tarts cool slightly before slicing approximately 6 times across each tart to create thin slices. Transfer to a serving platter. Scatter the mint leaves over the tart pieces and sprinkle with powdered sugar. Serve alongside the whipped cream.

I’m giving it 4 stars because of its potential however I did have some issues with the cook time and overall rise of the pastry puff. I’ll have to experiment with how I rolled out the pastry and will also use an egg wash next time instead of cream. Once it cooled it caramelized more than burnt so it was still yummy. Will make again.
I made this fruit tart recipe at least 5 times. It is so easy and I know the carbs must be less than I think. I recntly made with slice apples since this is apple season. I melted some apricot preserves with a little butter and used a pastry brush to brush the glaze on and it came out excellent. it looks like you got it from a high-end patry store. Thank you Ree.
I made this recipe last night, and it looks and tastes amazing. However, I did have the same issue with it burning. I tried the oven at 400 for 20 minutes and it was the same deal with burning on the bottom of my pastry.
Delightful
It was wonderful for a dessert after playing bridge. I made three… one blueberry, one strawberry and one raspberry! Everyone loved them.
Sooo delish! My grandson loves it!
I made this today and it came out really good and yes I did forget to put cornstarch but once I did remember I just sprinkled cornstarch on top of the fruit and combined it roughly and added some more lemon juice.
Baked on the bottom rack on parchment paper in a pan. 20 min.Came out crispy on the bottom and yummy so I’m giving it five stars

I would brush the puff pastry with an egg wash prior to putting on fruit to add a barrier and keep that pastry bottom from getting soggy.
So easy and delicious!
Cooked as instructed and the pastry got burnt. I think 425 for 20 minutes is way too long to bake this.
Did anyone else have this issue? The video doesn’t show her brushing the pastry with cream but the instructions says to brush with cream. Maybe an egg wash would be a better option. Quick and easy but didn’t meet my expectations.
