Description

This healthy blackberry tart features a delicate olive oil crust, tart blackberries and fresh lemon for a show-stopper summertime treat!

 

Ingredients

Units Scale

Tart Dough:

  • 1/2 cup Whole Wheat Flour
  • 3/4 cup All Purpose Flour
  • 2 tbsp Brown Sugar
  • 2 tsp Lemon Zest (zest from 1 medium-sized lemon
  • 1/3 cup Olive Oil
  • 1 Egg
  • 1/4 tsp Kosher Salt
  • 3–4 tbsp Ice Water (as needed to bring dough together)

Tart Filling:

  • 16 oz Blackberries (fresh or frozen)
  • 5 tsp Lemon Juice
  • 3 tbsp Sugar
  • 1 tbsp All Purpose Flour
  • 1 tbsp Coarse Sugar (optional for topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F
  2. Spray a tart pan or pie pan with nonstick spray, set aside.
  3. In the bowl of a food processor add all the dough ingredients except water. Pulse together for 10-15 seconds to mix the dough. If the dough seems very crumbly, add ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time to bring the dough together. It should stay together when you pinch with your fingers.
  4. Grab you pie or tart pan and place your dough into the pan. Using your hands or the bottom of a measuring cup, press the dough evenly into the pan. Start at the center of the pan and work your way out to evenly distribute the dough around the entire pan and slightly up the edges, just as you would a pie crust. Refrigerate your dough while you mix up the filling.
  5. In a medium size bowl, add the blackberries, lemon juice, sugar and flour. Mix together gently with a spatula.
  6. Remove your tart crust from the refrigerator and pour the blackberry filling into the crust. Give the pan a gentle shake back and forth to evenly distribute the blackberries. Top the berries with 1 tablespoon of coarse sugar.
  7. Place the tart pan onto a sheet tray (this is a must if you do not want to spend the next day cleaning your oven!) and place into the oven.
  8. Bake at 400° F for 30 minutes.
  9. Remove from the oven and allow to cool at least 10 minutes before digging in. Enjoy!
