This easy berry tart contains a home made, sugar cookie-like crust and a scrumptious, jammy berry filling. I adore it with ice cream or whipped cream!
Typically, the best desserts really are the very best, which is the argument for making this straightforward berry tart. You’ll create a easy, candy tart crust and bake it crammed with contemporary blueberries and strawberries till they bubble and soften right into a jammy filling. Then, you’ll take it excessive with a little bit of berry jam brushed over the tart for extra fruit taste!
What makes the crust particular is that it’s extra like a buttery sugar cookie than a standard flaky pie crust. Merely add butter, sugar, and eggs to a meals processor, then pulse within the flour. It comes collectively extremely quick, is splendidly straightforward, and tastes unimaginable with the berry filling.
Key Substances
- Candy Tart Crust: This sweeter tart dough is actually scrumptious and jogs my memory of a cookie slightly than a conventional pie crust. It combines butter, sugar, flour, salt, and eggs. Within the recipe, we ask that you simply separate one of many eggs and solely add the yolk, then course of and see how nicely the dough holds collectively. You’ll be able to add the reserved egg white if it’s somewhat crumbly.
- Berries: Our images present a blueberry and strawberry tart, however be happy to toss in different berries, like blackberries or raspberries. Cherries could be pretty, too. I want contemporary berries for this tart. In case you use frozen, the filling could also be extra moist than in our images.
- Lime and Sugar: I take advantage of somewhat granulated sugar for the berry filling and the zest and juice of 1 lime. You should utilize lemon if that’s all you have got.
- Jam: See how shiny the tart appears in our images? That’s because of somewhat warmed jam brushed excessive earlier than serving. Use what you’re keen on. Some readers swear by raspberry jam for this, which sounds wonderful.
- Further Butter: I really like dotting some additional butter over the berries earlier than baking. The butter melts and trickles down via the filling because the tart bakes.
My final tip for this tart is that our home made tart dough is well made upfront. So, you may make the dough sooner or later and bake the tart one other. Usually, if nicely wrapped, it stays within the fridge for two days or within the freezer for a month!
