Why Make This Recipe

Halloween is a time for fun and creativity in the kitchen! These Halloween Black Cherry Jam Tarts are not only delicious but also perfect for the festive season. They are easy to make and bring a spooky twist to your desserts. The rich flavor of black cherry jam combined with a flaky pie crust makes these tarts a delightful treat that everyone will enjoy.

How to Make Halloween Black Cherry Jam Tarts

Ingredients

  • 1 pre-made pie crust
  • 1 cup black cherry jam
  • 1 egg (for egg wash)
  • Powdered sugar (for dusting)

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Roll out the pie crust on a floured surface and cut into circles.
  3. Place half of the circles on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  4. Spoon a small amount of black cherry jam in the center of each circle.
  5. Top each with another pie crust circle and press the edges to seal.
  6. Brush the tops with beaten egg for a golden color.
  7. Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown.
  8. Let cool, then dust with powdered sugar before serving.

How to Serve Halloween Black Cherry Jam Tarts

These tarts are best served warm or at room temperature. You can place them on a platter for a festive display. They also pair well with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for extra sweetness. For added fun, you can cut shapes out of the top crust before sealing them, creating spooky designs.

How to Store Halloween Black Cherry Jam Tarts

To store your tarts, keep them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. If you want to keep them longer, you can refrigerate them for up to a week. To reheat, simply place them in a warm oven for a few minutes.

Tips to Make Halloween Black Cherry Jam Tarts

  • Make sure to seal the edges well to prevent the jam from leaking out during baking.
  • Use a small scoop to measure out the jam for a consistent amount in each tart.
  • You can substitute black cherry jam with other flavors like raspberry or strawberry if preferred.

Variation

You can also add a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg to the jam for extra flavor. For a more unique touch, try adding a cream cheese layer under the jam for richness.

FAQs

Can I use homemade pie crust instead of pre-made?
Yes! You can use a homemade pie crust if you prefer. Just make sure it is rolled out thinly for the best results.

Can I freeze these tarts?
Yes, you can freeze the unbaked tarts. Just freeze them on a tray, then transfer to a bag. Bake from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the bake time.

What other flavors of jam can I use?
You can use any flavor of jam you like! Raspberry, blueberry, or even mixed berry jams work great as alternatives.
