Whenever pies and tarts are made at my house, it's always with pre-made crusts. Don't get me wrong, they're always deliciously buttery so there's no complaining. It definitely saves time and anxiety.
Buuuut, I've always wanted to make one! There's something about being able to make your own tart crust that really appeals to me. I know, I'm getting more domestic every day.
It definitely came out much better than I had anticipated. A bit unfortunate about the fork marks though (they were mandatory).
I still had tons of that butternut squash spread leftover, so I filled the bottom of the tart crust with it. I sprinkled some extra cinnamon to give it a little kick, and then covered the entire thing in custard. Duh.
The slice looks really pretty. Tasted pretty darn good too! It really was a perfect way to use the squash spread. As for the crust, well, the amount of butter and sugar in it was perfect! It wasn't overpowering at all (as in, I didn't feel guilty having two slices in one sitting).
