One word of advice, prep the <strong><a title=\"cherry recipes\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/02\/recipes-for-national-cherry-month\/\">cherries<\/a> <\/strong>before diving into the rest of the recipe because they do take a while.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cherry Tart<\/strong><br \/>\n<em>serves 12-15<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>INGREDIENTS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2 pounds of cherries<br \/>\n4 sheets of 13\u201d x 8\u201d phyllo dough (keep refrigerated until needed)<br \/>\n1\/3 cup of almonds crushed into powder<br \/>\n\u00bd teaspoon of ground cinnamon<br \/>\n1 tablespoon of sugar*<br \/>\n6 tablespoons of butter<!--more--><\/p>\n<p><strong>INSTRUCTIONS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1. Pit the cherries and cut in half. We used 50 percent Rainier cherries (the yellow ones) and 50 percent regular cherries. Place the cherries in a bowl.<\/p>\n<p>2. Preheat oven to 375\u00b0F. Use a piece of parchment paper to line a rimmed baking sheet<\/p>\n<p>3. Melt 6 tablespoons of butter and divide into two small bowls.<\/p>\n<p>4. In the first butter bowl add the sugar and cinnamon and mix well.<\/p>\n<p>5. In the second butter bowl add the crushed almonds and mix well. We crushed the almonds with a mortar and pestle, but you can also use a food processor<\/p>\n<p>6. Remove the phyllo dough from the refrigerator and peel off two sheets<\/p>\n<p>7. Lay the phyllo on the baking sheet so that half of it hangs off the side. With a pastry brush, brush half the almond\/butter mixture on the phyllo and then fold the hanging phyllo over like a book closing.<\/p>\n<p>8. On top of the folded phyllo brush a layer of cinnamon\/butter.<\/p>\n<p>9. Place another two sheets of phyllo over the first and repeat the almond\/butter and cinnamon butter applications. You\u2019ll have a total of 8 layers of phyllo and two each of almond\/butter and two each of cinnamon\/butter<\/p>\n<p>10. Take your cherries and pour over the top, dispersing into a single layer<\/p>\n<p>11. Bake in the oven for 20 minutes<\/p>\n<p>*You can skip the added sugar altogether and double the almond amount if you prefer.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-101814\" alt=\"cherry tart square\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/cherry-tart-square.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/cherry-tart-square.jpg 800w, https:\/\/dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/cherry-tart-square-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/cherry-tart-square-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>ALSO TRY THIS:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.truefoodmovement.com\/roasted-spaghetti-squash-recipe\" target=\"_blank\">Quick and Easy Roasted Spaghetti Squash<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.truefoodmovement.com\/turkey-kebab-recipe\" target=\"_blank\">Turkey Kebabs<\/a> with Pineapple and Sweet Potatoes<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a title=\"jalapeno cherry limeade\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/07\/drink-up-these-fizzy-jalapeno-cherry-limeades-are-a-hot-twist-on-a-cool-classic\/\">Fizzy Jalapeno Cherry Limeade<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>Recipe and photos by TrueFoodMovement<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By TrueFoodMovement, a food blog that explores the healthier side of life.
