Cloudberry Tarts ~ Star Wars The Old Republic


Not toaster safe guys. You will need to warm them in the oven. Sorry.

You will need:



2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup butter, cut into pats
1 large egg
2 tablespoons milk





Whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt. 





Work in the butter with your fingers and the mixture holds together when you squeeze it.  




Whisk the egg and milk together and stir them into the dough, kneading briefly on a well-floured counter if necessary.




Divide the dough in half and shape each half into a smooth rectangle, about 3 by 5 inches. 





I used a pizza cutter to cut mine.  Put some fork holes in the tops and bottoms to vent.




Put filling on half of the squares.




I used apple pie filling the centers but for a different filling try.

Chocolate chips
Brown sugar and cinnamon
other fruits
chocolate and marshmello fluff

Press the tines of the fork around the edges to seal it closed.







Bake at 350  degrees for 20-30 minutes until the edges brown. You can put an egg wash on them to make the tops brown as well but don't worry about it if you are going to ice them.




Serve in the place of pop-tarts for breakfast!
Or for a dessert with ice cream!


 Yum!

This is a easy one, thank goodness. I needed a nap after those Soft Pretzels.

Heaven Peach Crisp



I gathered up some Heaven Peach's from a vendor in Darnassus. I highly recommend them, they are delicious just as they are or in a crisp or a cobbler.

You will need:


6 fresh heaven peaches - peeled, pitted and sliced
1/2 teaspoon almond extract  (or vanilla)
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup quick oats
1 cup white sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter

Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C), and grease an 8 inch square baking dish.




Place the peaches in the bottom of the baking dish, and sprinkle them with almond extract.




In a bowl, combine the flour, sugar, brown sugar, oats, cinnamon, and salt. 
Cut the butter into the flour mixture with a pastry cutter until the mixture resembles crumbs.





Sprinkle the flour mixture in an even layer over the top of the peaches, and bake in the preheated oven for about 45 minutes, until the peaches are bubbling and the topping is browned.




Serve over your favorite ice cream. Best if the crisp is warm.


Yum!
