Raspberry Tart

Ingredients

Directions

The book gives no oven temperature. The 350°F (175°C) in the steps was added when the recipe was transcribed, as a starting point. The book gives no cooking times either; the times in the steps were added in transcription, so check for doneness rather than trusting the clock.

Prepare

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

  2. Place the raspberries in a bowl and sprinkle with sugar to taste.

  3. Fill the pie crust with the sugared raspberries.

Bake and serve

  1. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes until the crust is golden and the raspberries are bubbly.

  2. Let cool before serving.

What each ingredient does

Raspberries
Provide the main fruit filling, supplying flavor, color, and juicy bulk to the tart.
Sugar
Sweetens the raspberries and draws out their juice, which helps form a syrupy filling.
Pie crust
Forms the structure that holds the filling and browns in the oven.

The step that matters

Let cool before serving. Cooling lets the hot juices thicken as they set, so the filling holds its shape when cut instead of running out.
