INGREDIENTS

2/3 cup packed light brown sugar

1/3 cup maple syrup

2 tablespoons JUSTIN’S® Maple Almond Butter

1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened

1 large egg, as room temp

1 1/2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon salt

DIRECTIONS

  1. Roll the pie dough about ⅛-inch thick. Using a 4-inch-diameter cookie cutter, cut 12 dough circles (rerolling the scraps as needed). Gently press one dough circle into each cavity of a 12-cup muffin pan. Chill the pan in the freezer for 20-30 minutes.
  2. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Whisk together the sugar, maple syrup, Maple Almond Butter, and butter in a mixing bowl. Whisk in the egg, vinegar, vanilla, and salt.
  3. Use a ladle or ¼-cup measuring cup, divide the filling evenly between the shells.
  4. Bake 15-18 minutes, until the filling bubbles and darkens somewhat.
  5. Transfer the pan to a rack and cool 5 minutes, then carefully run a butter knife around the edge to loosen each tart. Let the tarts cool in the pan, then remove. Store in a single layer in an air-tight container in the refrigerator until ready to serve. When ready to serve, bring them to room temperature and enjoy!

Easy Peanut-Ginger Noodles in a round white bowl with wooden chopsticks with fresh ginger in the background

Who hasn’t realized at 5:45 that they forgot to prep dinner? I certainly have. More than once. So often, in fact, that I created a delicious, quick, and healthy meal that uses pantry staples. My Easy Peanut-Ginger Noodles come together in the time it takes you to cook noodles and taste way better than anything you’ll order on an app or pull out of your freezer. Don’t tell anyone, but sometimes I forget to make dinner on purpose so that I have an excuse to make this dish!
