Here is the first recipe from this Sunday's dinner. I came up with the idea Saturday and just kind of went with it.
Cream Cheese Nectarine Tart
Crust: 1 1/4 cup AP flour
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter (cold)
1 egg
1 T cream or half and half
This crust is VERY easy. It is a very rich crust that is a cross between shortbread and pie dough. In a mixer beat together the flour, sugar and butter. Add egg and cream, mix a little more (don't mix too much though, the less the better) Roll it into a ball and refrigerate for an hour at least. Once it is chilled roll it out like any other pie crust and put in preferably a tart pan. Chill until filling is prepared.
Filling: 1 8-oz box cream cheese 1 lemon, juice and zest 1 egg 1/4-1/2 cup sugar (taste it to make sure it is as sweet as you would like) Beat the ingredients together, either by hand or in mixer. This is pretty much like a cheesecake filling. 2 Nectarines 2 T sugar 1 t cinnamon Cut nectarines and toss with sugar and cinnamon.
Crumble Topping: 2 T butter 2 T flour 1 T brown sugar 1 t cinnamon Mix with hands until crumbly
Assemble: Fill tart with cream cheese. Spread nectarines around and add crumble on top. Bake at 350 until crust is brown, 30-40 minutes.
