Taste of Home Bakeable's June 2022 Challenge: Vanilla Cream Fruit Tart ***UPDATED

Image
***UPDATED 6/25/23*** I've taken on the challenge of the  Taste of Home Bakeable's Challenge . For the month of June, it's the Vanilla Cream Fruit Tart . This recipe calls for a 12” pizza pan but since I had decided to cut the recipe in half, I used a 9” pie pan.  What’s wonderful about a fruit tart is you can use whatever fruit your heart desires. I used strawberries, blueberries, kiwis, and mandarin oranges.  If  you plan on keeping your fruit tart longer than a day, consider coating the crust with a thin layer of melted chocolate—it can be white, semisweet, milk, or dark chocolate—prior to filling. Not only does it coat the crust and keep it from absorbing moisture, but it also adds an additional "surprise" element of flavor!    This fruit & cream tart is easier than making a classic summer pie but fancier than a down-home fruit cobbler. It looks dramatic, elegant, and downright impressive, but it's actually simple to make. Sounds good,  ri...

Easy Freezer Strawberry Jam Recipe

Image
Recently, a friend of mine went strawberry picking and made some jam with her bounty. My mom and mother-in-law make it too but instead of waiting for someone to share it with me, I decided to make it myself.  This is by far the easiest recipe to make strawberry jam without cooking the fruit. It's soft, spreadable, and delicious. My youngest grandson is in love with this strawberry jam. I guess I'll have to keep on making it.  I didn't go berry picking because honestly, I'm not all about bending over for hours.  I picked up a couple of pounds of strawberries at my local grocery store and it worked out just fine. If you think you could never make jam, you are mistaken. Give it a try with any fruit you choose. I strongly suggest using instant pectin because I bought the kind you have to cook and didn't realize it at the time. It still turned out tasty 😋  Ingredients 2  pounds  of  Fresh Strawberries  3/4   cup   of Sugar 2.5   tablesp...
