Pecan Tarts

Ingredients

  • 8 sheets phyllo dough, thawed
  • 2 tablespoons non-hydrogenated margarine, melted and slightly cooled
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 cup light corn syrup
  • 2/3 cups old fashioned oats
  • 1 cup pecans, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • pinch salt
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1 egg white, beaten

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Prepare two mini muffin pans with nonstick cooking spray.

Place one sheet of the phyllo dough on a cutting board. Spritz with nonstick cooking spray. Repeat with 3 more layers, spraying between each layer. Cut the dough into circles using a 2 1/2-inch round cookie cutter or cut into 2 inch squares using a knife or pizza cutter.
Place one piece of dough into each well of the muffin pans. Repeat with the remaining 4 sheets of dough.

Combine all the remaining ingredients in a mixing bowl. Spoon one tablespoon of the batter into each prepared dough shell. Bake for 23-25 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool at room temperature. If serving the following day, refrigerate after cooled.
