Berry Peachy Tarts, Results

whole peach
1/2 tbsp lemon juice
handfull berries
15 phillo cups


Cut up one peach, squirt lemon juice over peaches, and blend to a puree consistency. If you're serving right away, the lemon juice isn't necessary, but I was blending up the peaches the night before, assembling in the morning. I find that when cutting/blending most fruits it's beneficial to add the natural preserving benefits of lemon juice.
I love to use an immersion blender, just throwing everything into a mason jar to do the blending.




I bought pre-cooked phillo cups in trays of 15 so there was no prep for the cups. If you aren't buying premade, prep according to package directions.




Pour pureed peach into cups, top with berry. I used blueberries as they are in season right now.



Two words: Yum-Ee!!

Berry Peachy Tarts

I'm supposed to bring a "non-messy, non-greasy, healthy (if possible) finger-food type snack" to church Sunday.

*sigh*

Can't do my health bars.

Or brownies.

Veggie sticks & dip?
Messy.

How about (drumroll please...)

berry peachy tarts

Yeah, I just came up with that.

Yeah, I do well sometimes.

I wonder if there's already a recipe out there for this.

Probably, but I'm going to do it my way anyhow!

I have phillo puffs in the freezer just waiting for something special!

I'll cut up a fresh peach, then puree it, adding just a touch of lemon juice.

Then I'll quickly bake the puffs, then fill them with the pureed peach and put a berry on top! (Whichever berry is in season right now!)

Voila!

I'll let you know how it went, and hopefully add some pictures, too.
