  • The Canadian Butter Tart doesn't get enough credit. To me it should be as famous as any other food Canada has to offer. Its the greatest and on par with Pastel De Nata (personally). The combination of salty and sweet, the flakey pastry, the gooey butter filling. 10/10. If you have never tried or HEARD of a Butter Tart before, do yourself a favour. Follow this recipe and give it a try! You will not be disappointed...thats a promise.

    Canadian here, these look every bit is good as all the ones I've tried! And I've tried a lot. I like mine with raisins the best. They are a mashup of a pecan pie filling and any nut or dried fruit you'd like to add to it. Definitely one for the books

      I agree, this version of them very similarly resembles mini pecan pies. That's not always the case with them. Also, they don't necessarily need to include pecans.. In Canada its between raisins, pecans or nothing at all...
      But whatever it looks like, it's delicious either way!

    Never heard of these, but I have had something similar before. "Pecan tarts" in the USA are basically the same thing as the ones that had the pecans in them. Some places skimp on the pecans and only put two or three in the entire tart, so they're even closer. I may have to try these (but with lots of pecans!) to see if they're better, worse, or about the same.

      These are a Christmas holiday necessity in my family (and, actually, just in the general region where I grew up). These are always included when people give you a tin of holiday treats (another Canadian tradition, gifting each other different treats so that by Christmas eve the treat tray is a totally random assortment of treats, only a few of which we've even made).

    Lol I love how casually you just toss everything together.
    Anyway, in my quest to get to the corn syrup free roots of the pecan pie I discovered the butter tart and the border (Ecclefechan) pie and those are the closest I find to a pecan pie made traditionally so I'm going with a butter pecan pie leaning on the firm side of the butter tart filling.

    • @antichef
      @antichef  4 года назад +5

      After I made this I realized how similar a butter tart is to pecan pie... or at least this version of the butter tart. They don't always have pecans in them and a lot of the time the filling isn't so dark. But this looks almost like mini pecan pie haha

    Tried again today usin castor sugar, very different taste and look, works well with the walnuts I used.

  • @philpaine3068
    @philpaine3068 Год назад

    Walnuts, rather than pecans, is traditional. Straight maple, with raisins, with walnuts, or with both raisins and walnuts are all acceptable. The slightly bitter taste of walnuts balances the sugar and maple syrup. Pecans? No, no, no, according the Great Spirit. Pecans grow nowhere in Canada --- they're a southern thing. The furthest north they grow is southern Illinois. Delicious in a southern pecan pie --- but sacrilege in a butter tart.
