How to Make Mixed Fruit Tart
1. Make the Crust (Golden, Buttery, Perfect)
Mix flour and sugar.
Add cold butter and rub it in until it looks like crumbs.
Add egg yolk and cold water.
Mix until it becomes a soft dough.
Press into a tart pan, poke holes with a fork, and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 15–18 minutes until lightly golden.
The smell? Pure buttery heaven.
2. Make the Silky Vanilla Custard
Heat milk in a saucepan.
In another bowl, whisk sugar, egg yolks, and cornstarch.
Pour the hot milk into the mixture slowly (unless you want scrambled eggs 💀), whisking constantly.
Return to the stove and cook until thick and smooth.
Add vanilla + butter. Stir until glossy.
Taste one spoon.
Tell your soul to calm down.
Let it cool slightly.
3. Fill the Tart (The Magic Moment)
Pour the custard into your cooled crust.
Smooth it out like a creamy golden pillow.
Your kitchen now smells like a fancy Paris bakery.
4. Arrange the Fruits Like Edible Art
Slice strawberries, kiwi, mango… place everything in circles, lines, spirals — whatever looks stunning.
Honestly, this is the part where you feel like a dessert designer.
Each piece of fruit adds a new burst of color and flavor.
Your eyes are already eating it.
5. Add the Glossy Glaze (The Final Flex)
Brush the warm apricot glaze over the fruit.
Suddenly it looks shiny, professional, irresistible.
Your brain: “Eat it now.”
