Mary Berry’s crust was quick to make as well and definitely a lot flakier with similar ingredients. These are pricey to buy so I will make them because they taste great when they are homemade. The prior ones I made were phenomenal in all departments although the crusts were a bit fussy to make. I have bought fruit tarts before and been disappointed because they look lovely and taste okay. I will do this recipe again yet use the touchy crust from the Great British Baking Show book. I decided to make it in pie shells instead so the sides are slightly higher then add a layer of lemon curd before the custard and the fresh fruit topping. I made a couple of changes since I have an abundance of Meyer lemons in my yard at this time. The one I made before was trickier to work with yet very flaky which I prefer. I made some at Christmas that were wonderful and decided to try this crust instead. I used this recipe to make tarts for Easter. Lumpy custard: If you’re concerned you may have some little lumps in the custard, you can strain it before adding it to the tart shell.If it’s happening too quickly, take it off the heat and whisk vigorously until smooth again. As soon as you see it begin thickening, don’t stop stirring. Stir frequently: When you return the custard mixture to the pan, make sure to keep an eye on it and stir frequently, so you don’t get lumps.Make sure to pour it in gradually, whisking the entire time to keep it smooth. Don’t rush tempering the eggs: When you add a hot liquid to eggs, you need to do it slowly so they don’t scramble.Trimming the pastry: Trim the excess pastry crust edges away right before you bake it, while it’s still cold.Don’t skip chilling: The pastry dough will keep it’s shape better and be a much crisper result if you make sure to chill the dough where stated.Make sure to weigh your ingredients for best results. Weigh your ingredients: Just a little too much or too little flour can have a big effect on baking recipes.I used a combination of blueberries, raspberries, strawberries and blackberries. Choose your favourite fresh fruit and get creative. Berries: While the classic fruit custard tart is topped with loads of fresh berries, just like this one, you can certainly use whatever is in season.If you want to be extra fancy, use vanilla bean paste, or fresh vanilla from the pod so you can see the little specks of vanilla seeds throughout the custard. Vanilla: Use a pure vanilla extract as opposed to vanilla essence as it’s a natural flavouring and tastes so much better.Cornflour: Cornflour (aka cornstarch) is a fine flour used for thickening.Milk: Whole milk (full cream milk) is what you need for the custard filling.Egg: Use large eggs, free-range if you can.Sugars: You’ll need icing sugar (powdered sugar) for the pastry and just regular white sugar for the filling.Butter: Use unsalted butter so that you can control the amount of salt.Flour: Just regular plain flour / all-purpose flour is all you need.Detailed quantities and instructions in the recipe card below.
