    This blackberry and apple tart is the result of a morning's apple and blackberry picking at a local farm. Phyllo dough is a great substitute for regular pastry.

    Ingredients:
    3 medium apples, peeled, cored and thinly sliced
    1/2 dry pint of blackberries
    1/4 cup sugar
    2 tbsp lemon juice
    8 sheets phyllo dough

    Preparation:
    Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Toss apples slices and blackberries in a medium bowl with sugar and lemon juice. Meanwhile, remove eight sheets of phyllo dough from the pack. I use 14-inch by 9-inch sheets. If yours are 14 by 18, then cut them in half. Lay the phyllo sheets on a clean work surface or cutting board.

    To prevent the sheets from drying out, cover with plastic or wax wrap and then with a damp cloth.

    Removing one sheet at a time and covering the remainder, spray each sheet with butter-flavored cooking spray, then lay sheet in a 9-inch pie dish, with the sides hanging over the edge. Repeat with remaining sheets, forming a circular pattern.
    Fill the center with the apple and blackberries, then bring up the sides of the dough and fold in, leaving a gap in the center. Spray with butter-flavored spray or brush with egg white.

    Bake for 30 minutes, until the crust is golden brown.
