Raspberry Tart
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cut into small pieces
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup ice water
- 4 cups fresh raspberries
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/4 teaspoon almond extract
- 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
- 1 tablespoon powdered sugar (for dusting)
Instructions
- In a food processor, combine 1 1/2 cups of flour, 1/4 cup of sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Add the cold butter pieces and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- While pulsing, gradually add the ice water until the dough comes together. Be careful not to overmix. Form the dough into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large bowl, gently toss together 4 cups of raspberries, 1/2 cup of sugar, 2 tablespoons of cornstarch, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, and 1/4 teaspoon of almond extract. Set aside.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough into a 12-inch circle. Carefully transfer the dough to a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom. Trim any excess dough and crimp the edges.
- Spread the raspberry filling evenly over the dough in the tart pan.
- Brush the edges of the dough with the beaten egg for a golden finish.
- Bake the tart for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
- Allow the tart to cool for at least 15 minutes before removing it from the tart pan.
- Dust the cooled tart with powdered sugar before serving.
- Slice and enjoy the delicious raspberry tart!
