Blackberry And Apple Free Form tart
Ingredients
Pastry 2 1/3 cups plain flour 1 tbs icing sugar mixture + extra for dusting Pinch salt 200g chilled unsalted butter, chopped in cubes 1/3 cup iced water (approx.)
300g box Creative Gourmet frozen Blackberries (or use Mixed Berries) 800g can pie apple 1/3 cup caster sugar + 1 tbs extra for sprinkling pastry 1 egg, lightly beaten Icing sugar mixture, for dusting Thick cream or vanilla ice-cream, to serve
Instructions
1. To make pastry, place flour, icing sugar and salt in a food processor. Process to combine. Add butter and pulse until mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. With processor running, add water and briefly process until pastry clumps (add extra water if necessary). Form into a ball. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill for 20 minutes. 2. Preheat oven to 180°C (160°C fan-forced). Line a 30cm tart pan pan or pizza tray with baking paper. 3. Combine frozen berries, apple and sugar in a large bowl. Roll out pastry on a lightly floured surface to form a 35cm circle. Lay pastry over base of prepared pan. Brush base with egg. Place berry mixture into centre of pastry, leaving a 6cm border. Fold pastry edges into toward the centre to partially encase fruit (press pastry to seal any cracks if necessary). Brush with egg and sprinkle with extra caster sugar. Bake for 40-45 minutes until pastry is golden. Remove and cool for 10 minutes. Transfer to a serving plate or board. Dust with icing sugar. Slice and serve with thick cream or vanilla ice-cream.
