This week's recipe was so delicious and light. Perfect for summer. I did alter the garnishing, but stayed true to Dorie's buttery crust and strawberries. I substituted the strawberry jam for peach-cinnamon. I also made a lavender simple syrup that I glazed the berries with, instead of just sugar. I topped off the tarts with a cinnamon-sugar creme fraiche to compliment the peach-cinnamon jam filling.
Lavender Simple Syrup:
1/3 cup lavender
1/4 cup water
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
Bring ingredients to a boil. Remove from heat and let rest for 20 minutes. Strain and save.
