Bramley Apple & Blackberry Flart


A flart is a cross between a flan and a tart.

For a 9" flart, ingredients for the base are:

4 oz plain flour
2 oz butter/marge
1 oz soft brown sugar
1 x large egg.

Crumb flour, fat & sugar together, then mix in the egg.  Mixture will resemble thick, sticky batter.  Grease a 9" springform tin and spread in flart base mixture, drawing the batter up the sides and spreading it about until even-ish.  Bake at 400F for 5mins, then prick base, and cook for further 10-15mins at 350F.  Allow to cool.

For the filling:

Peel, core and chop 4 x large Bramley apples, and stew with a little water, lemon juice and 2 x TBSP honey for 5mins. Take off heat, throw in a dozen large blackberries and then stir until mixture is evenly pink. Pour into flart base.

Place flart into the refridgerator to set.

Serve with whipped double cream.
