Ingredients of Grape Tart

For the crust

• 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled and diced
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 2-3 tablespoons cold water

For the filling

• 2 cups red or black grapes, washed and stemmed
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice

For the glaze

• 1/4 cup apricot jam or jelly
• 1 tablespoon water

Instructions

• In a food processor, combine the flour, sugar, and salt. Add the chilled butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
• Add cold water, one tablespoon at a time, and pulse until the dough comes together.
• Gather the dough into a ball, flatten it into a disk, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
• Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
• On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough into a circle large enough to fit into your tart pan. Press the dough into the pan, trimming any excess.
• In a bowl, mix the grapes, sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice until the grapes are coated evenly.
• Arrange the grape mixture evenly over the crust in the tart pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the crust is golden and the grapes are soft.
• In a small saucepan, heat the apricot jam or jelly with water over low heat until melted and smooth.
• Brush the warm glaze over the grapes to give the tart a beautiful shine.
• Allow the tart to cool before removing it from the pan. Slice and serve either at room temperature or chilled.
