- 4slices firm bread – white, wheat, or sweet, such as raisin, cinnamon swirl, or challah
- 2–3teaspoons unsalted butter, softened
- 4 tablespoons canned fruit pie filling (apple, cherry, peach, blueberry)

- 4. Remove “tarts” and let cool for about 5 minutes before cutting and serving (filling will be very hot). Serve plain, dusted with powdered sugar, or with a favorite ice cream or frozen yogurt.
