Instructions
For the Crust
- Combine flours, salt, and herbs in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse to combine.
- Add the butter and pulse until the dough resembles coarse sand.
- Add 3 Tbsp of water and lemon juice. Pulse until the dough comes together. Add the additional 1 Tbsp of water, if the dough needs it to come together.
For the Tart
- Preheat your oven to 400F.
- Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface to roughly 13 inches in diameter.
- Place crust on a baking sheet or stone.
- Layer the ham strips, red onion slices, and asparagus spears on the crust, leaving a 1 inch border uncovered.
- Gently fold the border up over the filling. (Be sure it doesn’t tear, or the next step won’t work too well.)
- Pour the beaten eggs into the crust and place the tart in the oven.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, until the eggs has set, the asparagus is roasted, and the crust is golden.
- Remove the tart from the oven and let is rest for 5 minutes before serving.
