Makes 30 tarts or two 8
× 1 1/4-inch (20 × 3 cm) open-face pies
There are several ways
to roll out the dough for these tarts or pies. You can use two clean plastic
produce bags cut along two sides and opened up to create two sheets. Or you can
roll it between wax or parchment paper. And, of course, there is the
old-fashioned method of using the countertop. All methods require a dusting of
flour to prevent the dough from sticking.
1 recipe Blueberry Mince Tart or Pie Filling
1 recipe Tart and Pie Pastry
For Tarts:
Roll out one of the two
balls of dough to form a circle of pastry 12 inches (30 cm) in diameter. Cut
the dough using a 3 1/2-inch (9 cm) diameter cutter or lid from a wide-mouth
Mason jar. Lift the circles with a pancake lifter and place each in a lightly
oiled or nonstick muffin cup or tart tin. Repeat with the second ball of dough.
Gather any loose scraps and reroll until all the dough is used up, making a
total of about 30 tart shells. Spoon about 3 tablespoons (45 mL) of the
blueberry filling into each tart shell. Bake the tarts at 350°F (180°C) for 20
to 25 minutes or until the crusts are golden brown. Remove the tarts from the
tins while they are still warm and allow to cool on a wire rack.

For Pies:
Roll out one of the two
dough pieces to form a circle of pastry 12 inches (30 cm) in diameter.
Carefully lift the dough with one or two pancake flippers and position the
dough onto a slightly oiled 8-inch (20 cm) pie dish. Arrange the dough in the
pie dish using small amounts of dough to fill any gaps and patch any broken
areas. Trim any excess overhang with a knife and flute the edges by pressing
into the pie dough towards the center of the pie at the edge with the thumb of
one hand, and using the forefinger and thumb on your other hand to crimp the
crust. Continue this method all around the perimeter of the pie shell to give
the pie a decorative look. Put half of the blueberry mince filling into the pie
shell. Repeat the whole procedure to make the second pie. Bake at 350°F (180°C)
for 45 to 50 minutes.
