Time 2h40m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 17

For the Tart Shell:
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup cold butter, cut into small pieces
3 tablespoons ice water
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
For the Custard:
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 cups whole milk
2 large egg yolks
2 tablespoons butter, cut into small pieces
1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
For the Fruit Topping:
3 to 4 cups sliced fresh fruit, such as strawberries, peaches, nectarines, mangoes, or berries
For Glazing:
1/4 cup apricot preserve

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Process the flour and butter in a food processor until coarse crumbs form.
  • With the motor running, add the water and lemon zest through the feed tube and process until the dough leaves the sides of the bowl.
  • Gather the dough into a ball, flatten, wrap in waxed paper, and refrigerate for 30 minutes or just until firm enough to roll out. If not using immediately, wrap with plastic and refrigerate for up to three days or freeze up to three months.
  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Place the flour and butter into a medium bowl.
  • Cut in the butter with a pastry blender or 2 knives until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  • Add the water and lemon zest. Stir until the dough holds together.
  • Gather the dough into a ball, flatten, wrap in waxed paper, and refrigerate for 30 minutes or just until firm enough to roll out. If not using immediately, wrap with plastic and refrigerate for up to three days or freeze up to three months.
  • Press the prepared tart dough evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9- or 10-inch tart pan with a removable bottom. Freeze for 20 to 30 minutes until very firm.
  • Preheat the oven to 425 F. Using a fork, prick the bottom of the tart shell at 1-inch intervals.
  • Line the pastry snugly with foil.
  • Bake 12 to 15 minutes until crust is set and just beginning to brown.
  • Remove the foil and bake until the crust is golden brown, 10 to 12 additional minutes. Set the crust on a wire rack and cool completely.
  • Gather the ingredients.
  • In a medium saucepan, mix the sugar, flour, and salt. Whisk in the milk until the mixture has a smooth texture. Make sure the whisk reaches the corners of the pan.
  • Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat and, whisking constantly, boil for 4 to 5 minutes until the mixture thickens. Remove the pan from the heat.
  • In a small bowl, whisk the egg yolks.
  • Gradually whisk in about 1 cup of the hot milk mixture.
  • Pour the egg yolk mixture into the saucepan and, whisking constantly, simmer for 2 to 3 minutes until slightly thicker. Remove the pan from the heat.
  • Add the butter and vanilla and stir until the butter is melted.
  • Strain the custard through a fine sieve set over a medium bowl.
  • Place plastic wrap directly on the surface of the custard to keep a skin from forming. Refrigerate until cool, about 1 hour.
  • Gather the shell, custard, fruit, and preserve.
  • In a small saucepan over medium heat, warm the preserve until slightly thinner in consistency, about 5 minutes.
  • ​ Stir the chilled custard and spread it into the prepared crust.
  • Top with the fresh fruit of your choice.
  • Brush the fruit with the preserve. Serve the tart right away or refrigerate, covered, for up to 24 hours. Enjoy.

Tips:

  • For the perfect custard filling, use fresh eggs and whole milk. Eggs provide richness and structure, while whole milk adds a creamy texture.
  • Strain the custard mixture before pouring it into the tart shell. This will remove any lumps and ensure a smooth filling.
  • Bake the tart in a preheated oven. This will help to prevent the custard from curdling.
  • Do not over-bake the tart. The custard should be set but still slightly wobbly in the center.
  • Let the tart cool completely before serving. This will allow the custard to firm up and the flavors to meld.
  • For a special touch, garnish the tart with fresh fruit, whipped cream, or a dusting of powdered sugar.

Conclusion:

Custard tarts are a delicious and versatile dessert that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a creamy custard filling and a flaky tart shell, these tarts are sure to be a hit at your next gathering. Whether you choose to make a classic custard tart or a more elaborate version with fresh fruit or a flavored custard, you are sure to enjoy this timeless dessert.
