Favorite Strawberry Tart

Directions

• Step 1

  PREPARE dough for single pie crust according to recipe directions. Ease crust into 10-inch tart pan; trim edges to fit. Preheat oven to 375ºF. Thoroughly prick bottom and sides of crust with a fork. Using a pastry brush, paint egg white all over crust. Bake crust 10 to 12 minutes, or until lightly browned. Cool completely.

• Step 2

  PREPARE pudding using the 1 1/4 cups milk. Spoon the pudding mixture into the cooled crust. Arrange strawberries, stem end down, on top of pudding.

• Step 3

  MELT jam in microwave for 30 seconds on MEDIUM (50% power). Stir, then microwave an additional 30 seconds to thoroughly melt. Using a clean pastry brush, paint strawberries with jam, then drizzle any remaining jam over the tart.

• Step 4

  REFRIGERATE tart until serving time. Serve with whipped topping, if desired.

• Step 5

  Any variety of fruit can be used in this versatile tart. Try kiwis and mandarin oranges with an apricot glaze, fresh peaches with a peach glaze, or blueberries and raspberries with a raspberry glaze.
