This crostata makes a nice, sturdy, yet soft crust for the fruits. My family would have enjoyed the filling with a touch more sugar, though. Next time, I'll try 1/2 cup sugar in the filling.

I followed this recipe and was amazed. The lemon in the crust with the blueberry and peaches went perfectly. I will definitely be making this again and again.




Excellent fruit dessert

This crostata has a very tender, tasty crust that reflects the combination of butter and egg yolk used in its creation. Although this recipe uses blueberries and peaches, other fruits can be used. This is a rather easy recipe to make and the results are satisfying.




Very Nice

Simple, great tasting dessert. But don't be a moron, pizza stones are cheap but they must be hot, just like an oven before trying to cook something! Don't give a dish a low rating because you're an idiot.

I thought this recipe was just wonderful. Just the right amount of sweetness with a little bit of tartness! No problems with the dough, I let it rest in the frig for a little over 1 hour before rolling, worked quickly, made sure no folds had openings and used enough floor on my board so that it would slide off easy. Came out great! Thanks Tyler, cute and a great chef, OUTSTANDING!




Tasty but difficult to make

The crust tasted wonderful but I was a little discouraged working with the dough. I had difficulty getting the dough onto the pizza stone with the heavy weight of the fruit. Even though I worked quickly, I believe my marble counter may have been too warm to work with dough. Next time, I will place a bowl of icewater on my marble work surface prior to rolling out the dough and I may use frozen fruit to take the weight off the dough so that it will slide off my pizza paddle onto the hot stone without coming apart. Definitely tasty though!




Pizza Stone Crostata Flop

The crust on this recipe fell apart and consequently it leaked all over the oven...the mess was tasty but lacked juiciness because the juice was on the bottom of my oven.... I cooked it on a pizza stone and apparently the stone was not hot enough...adjustment needs to be made for a pizza stone as more viewers would have access to a pizza stone that a pizza oven...although both my Italian husband and I would love one...

I made this w/ blackberries instead of blueberries. It was great......I'd use a little more sugar on the fruit next time!!!!!!!!!!!
