Prep Time 20 minutes
Cook Time 40 minutes
Total Time 1 hour 30 minutes
Servings 1 tart (4 mini tarts)

Ingredients
  

Pastry

  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup cold water

Marionberry Filling

  • 3 cups fresh marionberries
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 3 tablespoons flour
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon rum or bourbon optional

Crumble Topping

  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1/3 cup flour
  • 1/3 cup oatmeal/rolled oats
  • 3 tablespoons melted butter

Instructions
 

  • Make the pastry and place in the refrigerator to chill for at least 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degree fahrenheit (176 degrees celsius).
  • In one large tart pan or four mini tart pans, roll out the dough and place in the desired tart pan(s).
  • In a small sauce pan, melt the butter over medium heat until only lightly brown.
  • In a mixing bowl, beat together the eggs and sugar until thick and creamy (about 3-5 minutes). Add the rest of the ingredients and stir to combine.
  • Make the crumble: melt the butter in a small sauce pan. While the butter is melting, mix all of the dry ingredients. Remove the melted butter from the heat, add the dry ingredients to the saucepan until equally incorporated. Set aside
  • Place the marionberries in an even layer at the bottom of the tart shell.
  • Pour the egg and sugar mixture over the berries.
  • Place a nip of unsalted butter (about 1 teaspoon) on each mini tart or 4-5 teaspoons on the large tart and then cover with the crumble topping. Pinch the sides of the tart over the edge of the envelope the tart and prevent any deliciousness from escaping (see finished tart above as an example – nothing fancy, rustic is fine).
  • Bake the tart(s) in a preheated 350-degree oven for about 40 minutes (30 minutes approximately for mini tarts – check at 25 minutes), until topping is lightly browned.
  • Cool and then enjoy with your favorite vanilla ice cream, coffee or tea!
