Welcome to Foodie Friday! I’m linking up with Annmarie from the Fit Foodie Mama, Esther from Chocolate Runner Girl + Jess from Hello To Fit to create awesome healthy recipes each week! This week’s theme is…Berries! (It’s National Berry Month!)
Have you ever used phyllo dough? I never have, but happened to find a box of it in my fridge (who know how it got there) and decided to make something with it! We were feeling somewhat lazy, so we decided to try to go with something simple, and made our own berry tartlets!
I’d like to think they turned out pretty well! They only require 4 ingredients (assuming that you’re not super ambitious and making the phyllo dough from scratch…)!
We were running low on berries, but if I had it my way, I’d totally top all of these with heaps of berries!
Three Berry Tartlets
Ingredients:
- 4-5 phyllo sheets, cut into 12 4×4 squares
- 2-3 tbsp butter or Earth Balance, melted
- 3/4 cup berry blend*
- 1/4 – 1/2 cup mango passionfruit jam
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Brush each phyllo layer with butter (or just the top if you’re pressed for time). Bake for ~10 minutes, or until dough is lightly browned + crispy.
- Add a small dollop of jam to each phyllo tart shell.
- Top with berries and serve!
*If you’re using frozen berries, put them back in the oven for ~10 minutes!

Me too! :D Built in portion control!
I’ve made little pumpkin pies in those shells. My guys loved them. I like mixed berries….raspberries, blackberries, and strawberries. I’m loving a hot pepper jam that I found at the local farmers market, spicy and sweet! Yum!

omg phylo dough is used to make bak la va or however you spell it – pre celiac diagnosis i used to love that! so good :) as far as pokemon go – I’m am ALL for it – everyone needs to stop hating :) another suggestion for the dough – after baking – mix PB and greek yogurt for like a cookie dough type filling :)

Baklava! I adore baklava! My friend used to surprise me with a piece of it when it was my birthday or if I was feeling down about an exam or something in med school! :O That PB + greek yogurt combo sounds amazing! :D I’ll have to try that next!
And yessss for Pokemon Go! :P
Genius! And so simple, I love it. I would make it….. however, I tend to eat berries by the handful when they are around so they never last long here!
Phylo dough is something I have only messed around with when making baklava <3 oooooh man, that stuff is guuuuud.
