The number of butter tart recipes in Canada could fill a book on its own. I mean is there anything more Canadian than Butter Tarts? Every single Canadian Mom or Grandma has butter tart recipes to boast about. In fact butter tarts are one of my favourite desserts. They are even yummier than my second favourite – lemon tarts and desserts. So let’s talk butter tart recipes.
Butter Tart recipes are generally pretty simple to find and if you start to ask around you will see that everybody has an opinion on what kind they love. Soupy, liquid, buttery gooey butter tart recipes are my personal favourite. I am definitely not team walnuts or raisins. Just love them smooth and buttery.

Oh, this is perfect for Canada Day! (But NEVER raisins!) Lol
I agree -I can’t stand raisins in mine.
I love butter tarts and have always wanted to make them but have never tried. Looks like I came to the right place! Going now to check them all out and get baking!
I LOVE butter tarts.. I’ve never made them though – you’ve motivated me.
Butter tarts are our fave! No raisins or pecans though. Just yummy sweet filling
I agree 100 % – the filling is the best part!
My mom always used currants in her recipe and they were wonderful. Just make sure you soak them in some warm water before adding them to your recipe
Going to try these for school! Never made before. Can I put cream cheese in them?
NO I definitely would not use cream cheese in them. That will change them entirely.
I make my filling with raisins, coconut and pecans. Butter, brown sugar, egg and milk
so have you ever experienced boiling over with your tarts? I’ve tried not filling them as much but my Canadian recipe always boils over and then there is very little left in the tart! Someone told me adding a little vinegar will help. Your thoughts?
I put a dab of butter on top of my tarts and they never boil over.
That’s interesting. I have never tried that. I will try it next time we make them. Thanks Lynn.
