Yield Makes 1 nine-inch tart

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/2 recipe Cookie Crust
1/2 recipe Pastry Cream
5 ripe apricots, pitted and cut into 3/4-inch-thick wedges (3/4 pound)
1 cup blackberries (1/2 pint)
1/4 cup apricot jam

Steps:

  • Prepare cookie-crust dough. Heat oven to 350 degrees. Bake shell until golden, about 30 minutes. Remove from oven to cool.
  • When tart shell is completely cool, fill with pastry cream, using a small offset spatula to smooth top. Arrange apricot wedges in a ring around outer edge of tart. Fill center with blackberries.
  • Place apricot jam and 1 tablespoon water in a small saucepan over medium heat until warm and thin. Pass through a fine-mesh sieve. Using a pastry brush, coat apricots and blackberries with jam. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

This tart was a bit too tart for my taste, but it was still very good. I think next time I'll use more apricots and fewer blackberries.

The crust was a bit dry, but the fruit filling was delicious. I think I'll try a different crust recipe next time.

This tart was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still very good. I think next time I'll use less sugar in the filling.

I'm not a big fan of fruit tarts, but this one changed my mind. The crust was perfect and the fruit filling was amazing. I especially loved the blackberries. They added a nice tartness to the tart.

The tart was beautiful, but the fruit filling was a bit runny. I think I'll cook it for a bit longer next time.
