All-Star Berry Tart
- 1 homemade or store-bought pie crust (not in pan)
- Pastry cream:
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 cups milk
- 2 large egg yolks
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Topping:
- 1 cup apricot jam
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 pints fresh blueberries
- 2 pints fresh raspberries
- Follow package instructions to fit crust into a 9-inch tart pan with removable bottom, and bake until light golden.
- Make pastry cream: Mix flour, cornstarch and sugar in a bowl. Add 1/3 cup milk; beat until smooth. Whisk in yolks. In a pan, bring remaining milk to a simmer. Whisking constantly, pour hot milk into yolk mixture. Pour back into pan and bring to a boil, stirring. Boil for 2 minutes, whisking. Remove from heat; beat in butter and vanilla. Pour into a bowl; press plastic wrap directly onto surface of pastry cream. Chill 1 hour.
- Finish tart: Stir jam, lemon juice and 2 Tbsp. water in a pan over low heat until jam melts; strain. Remove crust from tart pan; brush with jam glaze. Spread pastry cream evenly. Arrange raspberries in center, forming a star. Fill in remaining surface with blueberries. Brush tart with remaining glaze.
