Grilled Fruit Phyllo Tart
TOTAL TIME: Prep: 30 min. Grill: 10 min.
YIELD: 12 servings.
This tart was a hit at my friend's baby shower. It reminds me of a fruit salad that my mother used to make with cream cheese and whipped topping. Everyone loved the flaky crust, and the bright colors make it a pretty addition to any spread. —Laura McAllister, Morganton, North Carolina
Ingredients
-
3 tablespoons butter, melted
-
4 teaspoons canola oil
-
8 sheets phyllo dough (14x9-inch size)
-
1 large lemon
-
3 medium peaches, peeled and halved
-
2 cups large fresh strawberries, stems removed
-
4 slices fresh pineapple (1/2 inch thick)
-
1/3 cup packed brown sugar

Directions
-
1.
Preheat oven to 400°. In a small bowl, mix butter and oil. Brush a 15x10x1-in. baking pan with some of the butter mixture. Place 1 sheet of phyllo dough into prepared pan; brush with butter mixture. Layer with 7 additional phyllo sheets, brushing each layer. (Keep remaining phyllo covered with a damp towel to prevent it from drying out.) Bake 5-7 minutes or until golden brown (phyllo will puff up during baking). Cool completely.

Place fruit on oiled grill rack. Grill, covered, over medium heat until fruit is tender, turning once, 8-10 minutes for pineapple slices and peaches, 4-5 minutes for strawberries. Remove and set aside.
