FRESH STRAWBERRY TART
This free-form strawberry tart in a buttercrust pastry is thickly glazed and beautiful. You can use a tart pan, but going free-form is kind of fun. Be sure to use perfectly ripe, sweet strawberries.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place pastry dough on a lightly floured work surface. Roll out dough to a round disk about 1/8-inch thick and 12 inches in diameter. Transfer to prepared baking sheet.
- Brush outside 2 inches around the edges of circle lightly with water. Tightly curl up a bit of the edge of the dough to give it a rounder shape with a slightly thickened edge. If some edges are thicker than others, pinch off excess and add to thinner edges forming a circle with even edges. Roll each edge again just once to make the edges thick enough to crimp. Crimp crust with your floured fingers.
- Use a fork to "dock" the bottom surface, covering it with tiny holes to prevent the dough from bubbling up as it bakes.
- Bake in preheated oven until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool about 10 minutes. Do not turn off the oven.
- Place cream cheese, creme fraiche, egg yolk, sugar, salt, vanilla, and lemon zest in mixing bowl. Mix together thoroughly. Carefully pour a thin layer of mixture evenly into pastry shell (you may not need all the cheese mixture).
- Transfer filled tart to oven. Bake until cheese layer is set and crust is browned, about 20 minutes. Let tart cool completely to room temperature before adding berries.
- Arrange berries cut side down, pointy end out starting with the larger berries around the edges. You can lean strawberries up a bit as your work your way toward the center. Cut some berry halves in half again to fit into any gaps on the cheese layer.
- Place apricot jam and 2 teaspoons water in saucepan. Heat over low heat until thin enough to brush. Let cool slightly before brushing generously over all berries and crust. Transfer tart to serving plate.

Steps:
- In a stand mixer, combine dry ingredients for crust and stir to mix. On low speed, add butter until the flour is crumbly and the butter is the size of peas.
- Mix egg yolk and milk together then add to flour mixture until just combined (about 15 seconds).
- Remove the mixture from the bowl and put on a floured surface. Knead quickly until it just comes together. The dough will be dotted with butter spots throughout. Tightly wrap in plastic wrap, refrigerate and let it rest for 15-20 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In the meantime, in a large bowl toss together ingredients for the fruit filling; set aside.
- Remove pastry ball from refrigerator and place on a floured surface or a floured Silpat. (Just rolling between 2 pieces of plastic wrap may be easier.) Place the plastic wrap on top of the dough ball and proceed to roll out until approximately 12 inches across and 1/8 inch thick. Transfer crust to a baking sheet.
- Ladle filling in the center, leaving a few inches of dough around the edges and pull over the free edges on top of the fruit filling leaving the center exposed. Brush the dough edges with egg wash and top with sugar in the raw or brown sugar.
- Cook for 55 minutes or until crust is browned and the fruit is bubbling.
GLUTEN- AND DAIRY-FREE FRESH FRUIT TART
My rendition of the fresh fruit tart I grew up infatuated with is free of gluten and dairy but full of luxurious flavors. The silky rich pastry cream is at once insanely vanilla-forward, custardy and an excellent contrast to the super-short, salty-sweet and buttery (without actually having real butter!) crust. Fresh seasonal fruit on top is the crowning glory. This recipe does require a few hours of waiting for the components to chill, bake, cool and set, but it all pays off in the end when you slice into your gorgeous fruit tart. With that said, there's a lot you can do ahead of time. The filling can be made the night before and kept covered and refrigerated until it comes time to assemble the final fruit tart; the tart crust can also be baked ahead of time.

Steps:
- For the filling. Add the almond milk, vanilla extract and salt in a small saucepan and bring to just under a boil over medium heat. Meanwhile, add the sugar, tapioca flour and egg in a medium bowl and whisk until combined.
- As the almond milk comes just below a boil, stream about half of it into the egg mixture, whisking constantly, then pour the egg mixture back into the saucepan. Cook over medium heat and whisk vigorously until thick and bubbly (you want the tapioca starch to fully thicken), for about 4 minutes.
- Transfer to a bowl and cover with plastic wrap touching the surface of the filling so it will not form a skin. Refrigerate until fully cool and set, for at least 4 hours and up to 8 hours.
- For the crust: Grease a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom with nonstick cooking spray.
- Make the crust. Add the gluten-free all-purpose flour, almond flour, oat flour, tapioca flour, sugar and salt into a food processor. Whisk to combine. Add the cubed vegan butter on top. Run the food processor on medium until the dough begins to form clumps, about 2 minutes. Scrape down the sides and bottom. Pour in the water 1 tablespoon at a time. Run the food processor until the dough comes together in a smooth cohesive mass, 3 to 5 minutes more.
- Transfer the dough into the prepared tart pan. Press the dough evenly along the bottom and sides, trimming off any excess with a small knife. Smooth the bottom with a flat-bottomed measuring cup or slightly damp hands. If there are any bare spots, patch it up using the trimmed off dough. Dock the bottom of the crust with a fork. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Bake the tart until golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes. Let cool completely.
- For the topping: To assemble the tart, remove the cooled crust from the pan and onto a serving plate. Spread the filling evenly over the crust, smoothing the surface using the back of a spoon. Arrange the strawberries, kiwi, blueberries and blackberries on top in whatever design you prefer. Refrigerate the fruit tart to set for at least 3 hours and up to 8 hours before serving.
FREE-FORM FRUIT TART
Chef's Note: Any fruit normally served uncooked will be perfect in this type of tart. Avoid apples, pears, bananas, peaches and apricots because they discolor, even when glazed. The best fruit to use include berries, kiwis, oranges, seedless grapes, mangos and papayas.

Steps:
- Spread pastry cream evenly on the bottom of the crust. Arrange fruit in overlapping concentric rows, beginning at outside edge and working in towards the center. For a "fruit salad" tart, toss fruit in a bowl with a drop of Kirsch (optional). Pile the fruit on the pastry cream.
- Edge the crust with the nuts and sprinkle on fruit at the edge of the tart. Either brush glaze on the fruit or sprinkle with confectioner's sugar.
- For the dough: Place flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder in a food processor fitted with a metal blade. Pulse 3 or 4 times to mix. Add butter and pulse about 12 to 15 times until the mixture is reduced to a fine powder. Do not allow to become pasty. Add egg and liquid, and continue to pulse until the dough forms a ball.
- Remove dough from work bowl to a lightly floured work surface and pat into a 5-inch disk. Use immediately, or wrap in plastic and chill until firm before using.
- To make a free-form tart crust, roll dough to a 12-inch disk and transfer it to a parchment- or foil-lined cookie sheet, or the back of a jelly-roll pan. Using a plate or cardboard disk as a pattern, trim the dough to an even 12-inch diameter. Fold under 1/2-inch of dough along the edge of the dough, then flute the edge as if it were a pie, to make the edge stand up. Use the thumb and index finger of one hand on the outside of the tart shell and the index finger of the other hand on the inside and pinch gently from the outside while pressing lightly from the inside. Repeat all around the edge of the crust.
- Pierce the dough with a fork before baking. Place the dough on the middle rack of a preheated 400 degree oven. Lower temperature to 350 and bake for about 20 minutes. Remove the pan from oven and transfer to a rack to cool. For the Pastry Cream: Combine sugar, flour and salt in a 1 to 1 1/2-quart non-reactive saucepan. Stir with a small whisk to mix. Whisk in milk, then egg and yolk. Place over low heat, whisking constantly, until the pastry cream thickens and comes to a boil. Allow to boil 10 or 15 seconds, whisking constantly.
- Remove from heat and whisk in vanilla and butter. Scrape the pastry cream into a non-reactive bowl and press plastic wrap against the surface. Refrigerate until cold, about 1 hour. Stir in liqueur just before using pastry cream. For the glaze: In a small saucepan bring the preserves and water or liqueur to a simmer, stirring often. Strain into another pan and return to a boil. Allow to cool for 5 minutes. NOTE: If tart is mostly red fruit, use currant jelly and strawberry or raspberry preserves.
