How to Make Healthy Easy Fruit Tarts

This is a fun recipe to do with the kids. By using fruit and fat free yogurt it makes for a healthy desert and a way to kid more fruit and dairy into your diet.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Pre made pie dough
• 4 inch round cutter
• Muffin tins
• Seasonal fruit
• Fat free vanilla yogurt

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Lay dough out flat and cut out 5 rounds from dough. I do not recommend reusing the extra dough. Then use a fork to poke holes in the rounds.

2. Put the rounds in un-greased muffin tins. You will need to make pleats in the dough and pull it up around the edge so the sides do not fall into the tin.

3. Bake for 9-13 minutes until the crust is brown. Let cool completely.

4. Then fill them ¾ the way with the fat free yogurt. Then add your fruit and decorate. I like to use strawberry, blueberry, peaches, kiwis, oranges, or whatever is on sale and in season. This is were you get to be creative.

Tips & Warnings

• Use fruit that is in season it is less expensive and is sweeter.
• You can use frozen yogurt or a flavor of yogart that you like.
• you can also substite pudding.
