Ingredients

  • Refrigerated butter-flavored cooking spray
  • 1 quart fresh blueberries
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon grated lemon zest
  • 1/3 cup sugar substitute
  • Unbleached all-purpose flour, for dusting
  • 1 sheet frozen puff pastry (1/2 of a 17.3 oz. package), thawed
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • Frozen light whipped topping, thawed

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400F. Coat a nonstick baking sheet with cooking spray.
  2. Place the berries in a bowl. Stir in the cornstarch, lemon zest and sugar substitute, making sure that all berries are well coated.
  3. On a lightly floured board, roll the puff pastry to a 12 x 14-inch rectangle. Place on the prepared baking sheet.
  4. Mound the berries on the pastry, leaving a 1 ½ inch border. Fold in the four corners. Using wet fingers, bring up the border of the dough over the edge of the berries, pleating as you go to form a rustic free-form oval or rectangle. Sprinkle the berries with lemon juice.
  5. Generously coat the top of the tart with cooking spray and bake 40-45 minutes until the berries are cooked and the pastry is golden.
  6. Serve warm or at room temperature with a dollop of light whipped topping, if desired.
