fruit tart

Adapted from: Smitten Kitchen

This fruit tart tastes like the most delicious corncake, cornmuffin you have ever had with jam spread all over it. It is sweet, tangy, crispy, crunchy, and more than you could ask for in a desert.

It's perfect

and

I think you should try it this weekend.

In your food processor mix up 1 1/2 cups of all purpose flour, 1/2 cup of cornmeal, 2 tsp of baking powder, 1/2 tsp of salt, 9 tbs of softened unsalted butter, 2 large eggs, and 1/8 tsp of almond extract.


Once it is mixed up take out a little over a 1/4 of it and roll it into some plastic wrap. Seal it up and throw it in the refrigerator until you are done.


Pour the rest of it into your tart pan.


Now the fun part !!! Spread it all around with your fingertips and make it look pretty...


Then empty 1 jar of preserves into the center of it. You can use any kind you like. My favorite is raspberry so that is what I used here.


Then take out your log of dough from the fridge. Slice it thinly and arrange it beautifully onto the top of your tart.



Like so...


Bake it in a 375 degree oven for about 25 minutes until it is all golden brown.


Slice up a piece of heaven and enjoy. It's also great for breakfast!!


Enjoy !!!
