Peach Tart & Corn and Tomato Gratin

As promised, the following are two recipes made with the freshest of ingredients.The Corn and Tomato Gratin is a bit labor intensive, but well worth the trouble.




Peach Tart

2 eggs, well beaten
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 cup shortening(make sure to use trans-fat free)
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups all-purpose flour
4 cups sliced peaches
1/4 cup butter
cinnamon

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Generously grease a 14 x 9 x 2 inch baking sheet.
2. In large mixing bowl, blend together eggs, 1 cup sugar, shortening and salt until fluffy. Gradually beat in flour.
3. Spread dough evenly over bottom of prepared pan using hands. Dredge your hands in flour in order to smooth out the dough as the dough is sticky.
4. Arrange peach slices evenly over dough. Dot with butter. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup sugar and cinnamon.
5. Bake for 35 minutes.

This recipe works well at sea level or at high altitude since there isn't any leavening ingredients.



I never said it wasn't fattening...but then it is dessert and isn't supposed to be low calorie!
