Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 pound unsalted butter, cold
2 tablespoons cold water
1/4 cup flour
5 cups nectarines and plums seeded and sliced
1 pint blueberries
1 cup sugar
Confectioners' sugar, for dusting
Creme fraiche, for garnish

Steps:

  • Mix flour, sugar and salt in a mixing bowl. Work butter into flour mixture with hands or a pastry blender until it resembles coarse meal. Add enough cold water to bring dough together into a ball, handling dough as little as possible. Wrap dough ball in plastic wrap. Chill at least 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Roll the dough into a free form circle, approximately 14-inches in diameter. Place on baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Sprinkle center of dough with 1/4 cup of flour. Toss nectarines, plums and blueberries with 1 cup of sugar. Spread mixture in center of dough to within 3 inches of edge. Fold dough border over the mixture, leaving a circle uncovered in the center. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until the dough is golden brown and fruit is tender.
  • Dust with confectioners' sugar. Serve warm or at room temperature with creme fraiche.
