Beautiful Breakfast Tart
The Beautiful Breakfast Tart features a homemade granola crust formed from oats, chopped nuts, seeds, honey, butter, and vanilla, baked until golden and crisp. Once cooled, it is filled with creamy Greek yogurt and topped with fresh assorted fruit arranged appealingly. This tart offers a balance of crunchy texture and creamy tang with fresh fruit sweetness, making a refreshing and wholesome morning dish or light dessert.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cup old fashioned rolled oats quick cooking oats can substitute
- 1 cup nuts I used almonds, pistachios, hazelnuts, walnuts, pumpkin seeds, sesame seeds, mixed, chopped
- 1 cup seeds I used almonds, pistachios, hazelnuts, walnuts, pumpkin seeds, sesame seeds, mixed, chopped
- 5 Tbsp butter melted
- 1/4 cup honey or sweetener of your choice
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Greek yogurt about 3 cups; any type of yogurt can be used; may want to strain looser yogurt to thicken
- Fruit assorted; sliced or whole; for topping
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325F.
- First make the granola crust: mix the oats, nuts and seeds, melted butter, honey and vanilla together in a bowl until everything is thoroughly coated.
- Press the mixture into a greased 10" tart pan with a removable bottom (or a pie plate). Use a measuring cup to help press the granola evenly across the pan and up the sides.
- Bake for about 15 minutes, until lightly golden. Let cool. You can make the crust ahead if you want to and fill it the next morning just before serving.
- Fill the tart with Greek yogurt, and smooth out evenly.
- Arrange the fruit on top.
- Serve immediately. The crust will start to soften after you add the yogurt and fruit, so don't wait to long to serve it.
Notes
- Prepare the granola crust a day ahead and fill with yogurt and fruit just before serving to keep the crust crisp.
- Use thick, strained Greek-style yogurt to ensure the tart holds its shape when sliced.
- A 10-inch tart pan is recommended for ample space to arrange fruit attractively.
- For convenience, ready-made granola can be used as a crust substitute, layered at the bottom without baking.
- Serve immediately after assembly to prevent the crust from becoming soggy from the yogurt and fruit moisture.
