Instructions
Make the Crust
Follow the instructions for making a single-crust pie crust.
Press the dough into a 9-inch metal or ceramic tart pan, halfway up the sides of a 9-inch springform pan, or a pie pan.
Bake as the pie crust recipe instructs and cool completely until it's at room temperature.
Make the Pastry Cream
In a medium saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat until almost simmering.
While the milk is heating, combine the sugar, arrowroot, salt, large egg yolks, and whole egg in a medium-sized bowl and whisk thoroughly.
When the milk is ready, slowly pour half of the hot milk into the sugar/egg yolk mixture, whisking quickly the whole time.
While whisking, slowly return the milk/egg mixture to the saucepan with the remaining milk.
Heat over medium heat, stirring frequently until the mixture thickens and just starts to bubble.
Remove the pan from the heat.
Whisk in the butter, vanilla, and almond extract if using.
Pour the finished pastry cream into a shallow dish, cover, and refrigerate until cooled completely.
Assemble the Tart
To assemble the tart pour the cooled pastry cream into the cooled tart shell, smoothing the top.
Top with the berries.
Chill until ready to serve and enjoy!
Notes
You can make the pastry cream and/or the crust as early as the day before if you need to.
Top this tart with whatever fruit is in season. Sliced mangoes or strawberries would also be delicious.
