tarte paysanne



It's so easy it's ridiculous!

1 pie crust
3 cups sliced peaches
2 cups mixed berries
1/2 cup sugar
2 tablespoons corn starch
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon crushed lavender blossoms
1/4 cup flour
1 egg yolk

Take your pre-made or home made pie crust roll it out on to a heavily floured pizza pan. It should be about 12" accross.

Combine all dry ingredients in one bowl. In a separate bowl combine all the fruit making sure that all excess juices have been drained off before adding your dry ingredients. Then lightly combine all ingredients.

Lightly crimp up the ends of your pie crust pour in combined ingredients making a mound no larger than 8 inches across. Fold up edges of pie crust as seen in the photo and lightly dust the crust with the egg yolk and sprinkle with sugar.

Bake in a preheated oven at 375F for about 40 minutes. Let cool before serving. Goes great with some vanilla bean ice cream.

ENJOY!!
