Patriotic Pie

For Memorial Day (yes it was two months ago) I decided to try my hand at a fresh fruit tart. I have always wanted to make one cause they look so delicious! And berries are in season now, so I couldn’t waste the opportunity.

I used a short dough crust, just flour, sugar and butter. You can’t go wrong there. It is the same recipe I use for New York Cheesecake, which I need to make again. Yummy!

I made lemon curd and added freshly whipped cream for a filling. It lightened the curd just so it wasn’t too overpowering.

Then I topped it with strawberries and blueberries. It wasn’t exactly how I wanted it to look, but it sure tasted good. Especially with a dollop of cream to top it off!
