Time 1h

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup chopped walnuts
2 tablespoons dry bread crumbs
1 cup sugar
1/3 cup strawberry preserves
4 eggs
1/3 cup fresh lemon juice
6 tablespoons cooled melted unsalted butter
1 pint strawberries, hulled and halved lengthwise

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • Place the walnuts, bread crumbs and three tablespoons of the sugar in a food processor and process until the nuts are finely ground but have not become a paste. Press the nut mixture into the bottom and sides of an eight- or nine-inch straight-sided tart pan. Place in the oven and bake about 10 minutes, until the nut crust just begins to color. Spread the crust with two tablespoons of the preserves.
  • Beat eggs with remaining sugar and lemon juice. Stir in melted butter. Pour this mixture into tart shell, return to oven and bake about 35 minutes, until custard has set.
  • Cool to room temperature, then spread the surface with the remaining preserves and arrange the strawberry slices in a pattern on top.
