Ingredients
    Crust Ingredients:
  • 1 cup cake flour
  • 3 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1/3 cup butter (softened)
  • Filling Ingredients:
  • 1 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup 1 1/2 sticks butter, softened
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2/3 cup evaporated milk
  • 1/4 cup light corn syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • icing sugar
  • Topping:
  • 1 cup fresh orange juice
  • 2-3 tsp Stevia or sugar
  • tbsp champagne vinegar (or rice vinegar)
  • 1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 dash salt
  • lb fresh blueberries
  • 1 lb fresh strawberries (halved)
  • 1 large peach (cut into wedges (I use a bag of thawed, frozen peaches))
  • ¼ cup fresh basil leaves (optional)
Instructions
    NOTE: If you don’t have a skillet, I believe you can bake this in a greased 9-inch square baking dish (I’d use a glass one if you have it, and check it early and often. Remove when there’s some jiggle left.)
  1. Combine orange juice, sugar and champagne vinegar in a small saucepan over medium heat and bring to a boil. Cook for 15 minutes until reduced to about a half cup. Whisk in olive oil and salt and let stand for 2 minutes
  2. Combine blueberries, strawberries and peach slices in a large bowl. Add vinaigrette about 20 minutes before serving so that fruit is able to marinate...I think it tastes best if allowed to sit refrigerated until ready to use. Garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired.
