This Strawberry Blueberry Tart is a delicious and beautiful way to celebrate the summer. The contrasting textures and taste of cooked and raw blueberries combined with the sweetness of fresh, juicy strawberries is irresistible. The red and blue colors of the berries makes this Strawberry Blueberry Tart perfect for the Fourth of July!  Serve with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream if you’re having a dairy meal. Enjoy!

Note: I bake my All-Purpose Crusts in a flan ring placed on a parchment-lined cookie sheet, as opposed to a pan where you have to push the bottom up through the ring to free it. With a flan ring, you just wait til the tart cools a bit and then carefully lift the ring off the tart before sliding it onto a serving plate.
