Rustic Blueberry & Apple Tart
January 28, 2008
After much talk today at the office of baking and cooking I came in from the cold craving something baked and warm. Looking around my kitchen (and not wanting to go back out into the cold) I decided to see what I could throw together in order to have a warm dessert. This tart turned out great and used some apples that were too dry to eat on their own, but were perfect for baking. It was so simple I can’t believe I haven’t tried this before. Enjoy it piping warm, topped with some yummy vanilla ice cream (or Creme Caramel flavour like I had on hand).

Cook/Prep Time: Aprox 45 min. total
Serves: 4 big slices
Ingredients:
1 large pie crust (make your own from scratch or buy pre-made)
2 medium sized apples - peeled and thinly sliced
1 cup frozen blueberries - thawed and drained
1 heaping tablespoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon corn starch
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
Directions:
Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Peel and slice up apples, defrost and drain blueberries. Combine with sugar, cinnamon, and corn starch in a bowl, mixing well. Lay out pie crust in a regular or deep dish pie plate. Spoon fruit mixture into center while trying to level mixture. Fold over sides of pie crust over fruit leaving center slightly visible. Bake aprox. 20 minutes or until pie crust is browned slightly, flaky, and fruit filling is bubbling. Let cool slightly, slice up and serve warm topped with your favorite vanilla-based ice cream.
