This Rustic Black Cherry Tart is the perfect dessert to accompany a wild game feast or any outdoor gathering. With its buttery crust and sweet-tart black cherry filling, it's sure to impress.
Ingredients: 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour. 1/4 cup granulated sugar. 1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cubed. 1/4 teaspoon salt. 3 tablespoons ice water. 2 cups fresh or frozen black cherries, pitted. 1/4 cup granulated sugar. 2 tablespoons cornstarch. 1 tablespoon lemon juice. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. 1 egg, beaten for egg wash. Powdered sugar, for dusting.
Instructions: Warm the oven up to 190C 375F. Put flour, sugar, butter, and salt in a food processor and blend them together. Use pulses to break up the mixture into large crumbs. Pulse the food processor as you add ice water, one tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes together. Place the dough on a floured surface and roll it out into a disk. Put it in the fridge for 30 minutes after wrapping it in plastic wrap. Put cherries, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and vanilla extract in a bowl and mix them together. Toss until the cherries are covered all over. Roll the dough out into a circle about 12 inches across on a floured surface. Move to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Place the cherry mixture in the middle of the dough, leaving some space around the edges. Fold the dough's edges over the filling and pleat them if you need to. Use an egg wash to cover the edges of the dough. Put it in the oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling boils over. Take it out of the oven and let it cool down a bit before you serve. Before you serve, sprinkle with powdered sugar.
