Berry lovers, rejoice: Spring is finally here, and that means goodbye to frozen winter fruit and hello to fresh, juicy berries. I have the perfect way to celebrate these delightful little fruits: this fresh berry tart recipe.

Just the word “tart” can be enough to send even experienced cooks fleeing from the kitchen, but have no fear — this berry tart is super simple and allows all the berry flavors — such as benefit-rich blueberries — to shine through.

Because the fruit tart crust has to chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour, this is a terrific recipe to prep the night before. Try taking this to your next barbecue — just be ready to share the recipe!

What Is a Tart?

Simply put, fruit tarts like this fresh berry tart are dishes baked in pastry shells without a top that often contain jelly, custard and/or fruit. Some tart recipes call for all types of decadent — and sometimes unhealthy — ingredients, but fruit tart recipes can be healthy and easy to make.

As you probably guessed, this berry tart is one of the healthier fruit tart recipe choices out there thanks to the healthy berries and gluten-free flour, which are just some of the stars of this recipe:

How to Make Berry Tart

We’ll start by mixing together the berries and jam and letting them hang out in the fridge. Then, using a food processor or blender, cut the butter into the flour.

Once the butter is evenly dispersed, add in the eggs and nutrition-rich maple syrup, and stir it all up to combine. Shape the dough into a ball, and wrap in plastic.

Place in the refrigerator for at least an hour — overnight is fine.

When you’re ready to get the berry tart going, preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit, and line a tart pan with parchment paper. Press the dough into the pan gently, and slide into the oven.

Let the dough bake for about 20 minutes or until the crust is lightly browned around the edges.
