  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup butter
  • 4 egg yolk

Filling

To Assemble

  • 4 pink grapefruits
  • 1/4 cup apple jelly

Directions

Crust

  2. Preheat oven to 350 F.
  3. On a lightly floured surface, knead dough for 1 minute. Roll out to just greater than 1/4-inch thick. Line a 9-inch removable-bottom tart shell with crust and trim edges. Chill for 15 minutes. Dock pastry with a fork and bake for 18 minutes. Allow to cool.

Filling

  2. Bake for 25 minutes, until center stops jiggling when tapped. Chill tart for 1 hour before finishing.

  2. Arrange grapefruit sections on tart. Warm apple jelly with 2 Tbsp water and brush grapefruit. Sprinkle outside edge of tart with ground pistachios. Chill until ready to serve.
