Strawberry Tart

Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups white flour
  • 1.5 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 6 tbsp butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tbsp whole milk
  • 1 pint strawberries, hulled and cut in half (depending on the size of your pan, you may need less)
Preheat oven to 350. Lightly grease a spring-form pan. We used an 8.5 inch pan.
Mix together flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon in a bowl.
In a separate bowl, cream the butter and sugar. Add the eggs and milk. Mix the dry and wet ingredients. Do not overmix. This is important.
Spread the mixture into the bottom of the pan. Press the strawberry halves deeply into the batter, making several concentric rings.
Bake for 30-40 minutes, until a toothpick comes out pretty clean.

Thoughts: Pretty delish, and very easy to make. I might have sprinkled the top of the tart with sugar and cinnamon before baking it, just to add a little more flavor. The more strawberries you can fit on top, the better. Don't worry about making a pretty pattern. Just add all sorts of strawberries.
