Teenie Notes
- Watch the baking time. I adjusted by 15 minutes, only needing the additional 30 minutes of bake time at 350 degrees instead of 45 minutes.
- Some complimentary add-ins: Blueberries, blackberries…
- Work with cold butter! Keep it cold until ready to use.
- A flexible tart that can be made any time of the year, and because of its color – would add to the festivities and holidays (Valentines, 4th of July, Thanksgiving, Christmas).
