Mid-summer peach tart with blackberry custard

This is a rustic peach tart in the classic French style, where fresh ingredients do the work and it's only as dressy as your presentation cares to be. The peaches bake down into a velvety layer above the custard – stained a vibrant lavender by the berries. <br /> <br />Like any tart, this one pulls from a couple of basic recipes that require a little bit of time to put together, but are simple to execute once you've tried them, and will prove invaluable additions to your pastry repertoire. <br /> <br />It's simple enough to adapt this tart to any ingredients you have on hand; swap the peaches for anything from apricots to poached pears, or the blackberries for, say, blueberries (or omit them altogether and add a dash of almond extract).
