    List of Ingredients




    Pastry:
    1 ½ cups flour
    ½ cup sugar
    1 tsp. baking powder
    ¼ tsp. salt
    1 stick butter, cut into cubes
    1 large egg
    1 ½ tsp vanilla

    Filling:
    ½ cup sugar
    2T flour
    1T quick-cooking tapioca

    1 cup blueberries
    1T lemon juice
    1 tsp. cinnamon

    Recipe



    Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

    For Pastry: Pulse flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in food processor. Add butter and pulse til mixture resembles coarse meal. Add egg and vanilla, pulse til dough just begins to come together. Press dough onto bottom and sides about ¼ inch up of a 9” springform. Chill til firm, about 10 minutes.

    For Filling: Grind 2T sugar with flour and tapioca til tapioca is powdery, then transfer to a large bowl and add the rest of the sugar; add peaches, blueberries, lemon juice and cinnamon, toss gently to coat.

    Spoon filling onto pastry, cover loosely with foil, and bake about 1 ¾ hours til filling is bubbling and crust is golden. remove from oven, run a knife around the edge, and loosen the springform. Cool to warm before cutting.

    After bake edit: Just came out of the oven half an hour ago, and had my first slice - oh - yum! The pastry is like a cross between a sweet biscuit and a cake - crunchy and tender!

    I did peek after an hour, having never baked anything like this for so long, even under foil; I must have had really juicy peaches, because there was LOTS of juice; so for the last half hour, I removed the foil and that seemed to thicken up the juice considerably.

    This is delicious - and easy, too! Oh - and looks gorgeous!
