Fruit and Walnut Tart


Yet another lovely dessert idea from the WI ladies. Super easy and failsafe. You can make it even easier if you use ready made all butter shortcrust or even buy a ready made pastry case. I made my shortcrust, which I have posted many times before and lined a medium fluted flan tin. Serve warm with lashings of clothed cream. Or custard. 

Make/buy your all butter shortcrust and line the flan tin, chill while you prep. Pre heat your fan oven to 180C

4 oz butter
6 oz soft light brown sugar
2 eggs
8 oz mixed dried fruit
2 oz chopped walnuts
1 tablespoon vinegar

In a medium saucepan, melt the butter then stir in the sugar to dissolve. Add the beaten eggs, vinegar, dried fruits and walnuts. Mix well and tip into your prepared pastry case. Bake for 30 mins.

How simple is that! Absolutely delicious too. Equally as good when cold.


Note: I have no idea why the vinegar is in the ingredients. Any ideas?
