NECTARINE TART
A beautiful dessert made from any great summer fruit - figs, nectarines, apricots, plums - that, yes, takes a little time. The reward is in the wow factor you get from the result - and in the flavors it provides. Brushing the pastry with a slick of good preserves before you add the fruit will create a thick syrup on the bottom that helps keep the pastry from becoming soggy. Then cut the fruit into quarters or eighths, depending on their size, then crowd the wedges so that they stand at attention in tight concentric circles on a pastry shell. Dust the whole thing with sugar and baste the top with melted butter. Cook and cool the finished tart, then serve with crème fraîche, whipped cream, or a few scoops of your favorite ice cream.

Steps:
- Blend flour, salt and 2 tablespoons sugar in a bowl or food processor. Dice 8 tablespoons of the butter. Use a pastry blender or two knives to blend flour mixture and butter, or pulse them together in a food processor to make a crumbly mixture. Beat the egg yolk with 3 tablespoons cold water. Dribble it over the flour mixture, then stir or pulse slowly until the mixture starts clumping together. A bit more water may be necessary. Gather dough in a loose ball and form into a disk on a lightly floured surface.
- Heat oven to 375 degrees. Roll out dough and line a 10-inch loose-bottom tart pan. Line pastry with a sheet of foil and spread pastry weights or dry beans on top. Bake 12 minutes. Meanwhile, melt the remaining butter, cooking it on low until it turns a light nut brown. Pit fruit (except figs) and cut in eighths or, if fruit is small, fourths. After 12 minutes, remove foil and weights from pastry. Return pastry to oven and continue baking until it is lightly browned, another 8 to 10 minutes. Remove pastry from oven and increase temperature to 400 degrees.
- Brush pastry with preserves. Arrange fruit in tight concentric circles, starting by placing it around the perimeter, skin side down, against the vertical sides of the pastry and standing it up as much as possible. Brush with melted butter. Dust with remaining sugar. Bake about 35 to 40 minutes, until edges have browned but fruit has not collapsed. Cool before serving with crème fraîche.

RUSTIC BERRY TART
From EatingWell: Summer 2004, The EatingWell Diabetes Cookbook (2005). The secret to this free-form tart is the layer of ground almonds under the berries: it thickens the juices, prevents a soggy crust and delivers an exquisite background flavor for the intense berries. Exchanges: 2 other carbohydrate, 1 fat (2 Carbohydrate Serving). NOTE: Prep time includes 1 hour refrigeration time.

Steps:
- TO PREPARE CRUST:.
- Whisk whole-wheat flour, all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons sugar and salt in a medium bowl.
- Cut in butter with a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with a few larger pieces.
- Add oil and stir with a fork to blend.
- Mix 1/4 cup water, egg yolk and 1 teaspoon lemon juice (or vinegar) in a measuring cup.
- Add just enough of the egg yolk mixture to the flour mixture, stirring with a fork, until the dough clumps together. (Add a little water if the dough seems too dry.)
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead several times.
- Form the dough into a ball, then flatten into a disk.
- Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 425°F Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil and coat with cooking spray.
- TO PREPARE FILLING AND ASSEMBLE TART:.
- Spread almonds in a small baking pan. Bake until light golden and fragrant, about 5 minutes. Let cool.
- Combine whole-wheat flour, 1/4 cup sugar (or Splenda) and the toasted almonds in a food processor or blender; process until the almonds are ground.
- Roll the dough into a rough 13- to 14-inch circle on a lightly floured surface, about 1/4 inch thick. Roll it back over the rolling pin, brush off excess flour, and transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
- Spread the almond mixture over the pastry, leaving a 2-inch border all around.
- Toss berries with the remaining 3 tablespoons sugar (or Splenda) and 2 teaspoons lemon juice in a large bowl; spoon over the almond mixture.
- Fold the border up and over the filling, pleating as necessary.
- Blend the reserved egg white and 1 tablespoon water with a fork; brush lightly over the tart rim. Sprinkle with the remaining 1 teaspoon sugar.
- Bake the tart for 15 minutes at 425°F.
- Reduce oven temperature to 350°F and bake until the crust is golden and the juices are bubbling, 30 to 40 minutes.
- Leaving the tart on the parchment (or foil), carefully slide it onto a wire rack. Let cool.
- Shortly before serving, melt jam in a small saucepan over low heat; brush over the berries.
- Cut the tart into wedges and serve.
- MAKE AHEAD TIP: Prepare crust through Step 1; wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 2 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
- INGREDIENT NOTE: Whole-wheat pastry flour is milled from soft wheat. It contains less gluten than regular whole-wheat flour and helps ensure a tender result in delicate baked goods while providing the nutritional benefits of whole grains. Available in large supermarkets and in natural-foods stores. Store in the freezer.
- TIP: To separate eggs safely: Use an egg separator, an inexpensive gadget found in cookware stores; separating eggs by passing the yolk back and forth between pieces of eggshell or your hands can expose the eggs to bacteria.
RUSTIC NECTARINE TART
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Place folded pastry on a lightly floured work surface; roll out to a 12-by-14-inch rectangle. Trim edges to make even.
- Place pastry on a parchment-lined baking sheet. With a sharp paring knife, lightly score dough to form a 1-inch border. Using a fork, prick dough inside the border every 1/2 inch. Sprinkle the border with 2 teaspoons sugar. Refrigerate until slightly firm, about 10 minutes (or up to 1 day, covered with plastic wrap).
- Bake chilled dough until puffed and golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, gently toss sliced nectarines with flour, remaining 1/3 cup sugar, and the salt.
- With a fork, press dough inside border to make level; arrange nectarines in rows on top (or pile nectarines on top and then spread evenly). Bake, tented with foil, until nectarines have softened, about 10 minutes. Remove from oven and brush nectarines with warm jelly. Let cool completely, about 20 minutes, before cutting and serving.
