Photo: Strawberry-Peanut Butter Tart Recipe
Ingredients
- 12 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened, plus more for the pan
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup peanut butter (creamy or crunchy)
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup confectioners' sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup strawberry jam
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Generously butter a 9-inch fluted tart pan with a removable bottom.
Whisk the flour, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Beat the butter, peanut butter and both sugars in a separate bowl with a mixer until smooth. Beat in the egg and vanilla. Add the flour mixture and stir with a wooden spoon until combined.
Press half of the dough into the prepared tart pan. Spread the jam over the dough, leaving a 1/2 -inch border around the edge. Drop about half of the remaining dough over the jam by the tablespoonful; lightly press the rest of the dough into the pan around the edge to form a crust. Bake until golden, 45 to 50 minutes.
Transfer the pan to a rack and let cool. Remove the ring and transfer the tart to a plate.
