Rustic Blueberry Peach Tart

I’ve got a super-duper simple dessert for you today!  One of my favorites to make {um, because it requires almost no skill} and so easy to make it your own with any fruits you desire. Now, I love a good home made pie crust -- there really is nothing better than biting into a flaky, buttery, hand-kneaded crust made with love, butter, flour and ice water.... but MAN can that be a tough thing to achieve.  When I have extra fruit lying around, I’d love to make a pie but I’d love to not have to make crust.  So I substitute....Store. Bought. Refrigerated. Crust.  It’s shameful...I know....I can hardly look at you all as I type.....................

But soon enough I’m shoving a piece of this warm rustic fruit tart into my mouth.  Maybe it’s dolloped with whipped cream...or maybe it’s topped with luscious vanilla ice cream...either way, I’m taking it down like it’s straight from my Grammy’s oven.  Store bought pie crust has come a long way!  Really!!  Just be sure to get the refrigerated dough that’s rolled up, not the stuff already frozen in a pie-tin.  That you might regret...

1 c. blueberries
