1 tart

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 Recipe Flaky Butter Pastry
Flour for rolling
1 pint Ripe blackberries, about 2 C
1 tablespoon Lemon juice
1 teaspoon Framboise or kirsch (opt.)
¼ cup Sugar
2½ tablespoon All-purpose flour
1 teaspoon Unsalted butter

Directions

Roll the dough as directed for the desired tart size. Transfer the dough to a baking sheet and refrigerate while you prepare the berries.

In a medium bowl, place the blackberries and toss with the lemon juice and framboise if desired and all but 1 T of the sugar. Set aside.

In a small bowl, combine the 2½ tablespoons flour with the remaining sugar. Remove the dough from the refrigerator and sprinkle the flour-sugar mixture evenly over the dough, leaving a border uncovered as directed above. Arrange the fruit evenly over the flour-sugar mixture. Fold the rim of dough over the fruit, crimping the seams lightly with moistened fingers. Shave the butter on top of the berries.

Bake the tart in a preheated 400'F oven as directed above.
