Raspberry Almond Crumb Tart

Thursday, May 9, 2013

As a child, I disliked the texture of berries. I loved the flavors, but the texture was just weird to me. I'm happy to say I've gotten over that. I still don't like to bite into a big strawberry, but cut those up and I'm good. No idea what that's all about. In any case, I now happily embrace berries and love to use them in baking. For my taste, I prefer to use them in a way that lets the flavor of the berries come through. They're plenty sweet on their own without adding much to them. This tart is a lovely way to revel in berry deliciousness.

I do not like summer. Really, what's all the fuss? It's just hot, and I don't like being hot. Of course, if I lived somewhere other than the South, I might feel differently. Here, our summer seems to last half of the year. I don't mean to be start out being so negative, but all of my summer-related whining does have a point. There are a couple of things that I like about summer. Well, now that I think about it, there may just be one: fresh berries.

View a printable recipe or more photos Do you like butter? A lot? Well, look no further. These bars are just for you. This may be the most butter I've ever used in a single recipe. Especially for something made in a small square baking pan. I found this recipe in my "to bake" collection the other day and put it aside to make sooner rather than later. The page was ripped from a magazine, although I'm sad to say I'm not sure which one. From the looks of it, I think it was either Taste of the South or Southern Lady. Considering its Southern origin, I suppose we shouldn't be surprised at the amount of butter. Being a Southern girl myself, I'm certainly no stranger to butter-laden baked goods.

I try to keep my visits to a minimum, but I do love perusing the aisles looking at all of that lovely, mostly unnecessary stuff. Last weekend, [...]

View the original recipe or more photos Most times when I make a recipe, I have spent a good deal of time looking for one with something specific, whether it be an idea I have or just an ingredient I have on hand. If I’m wanting brownies, for instance, I may look through ten cookbooks, [...]
