This sugar pie is not healthy. It is a pie that is overloaded with sugar and fat, so you can probably say that it is quite unhealthy.
But it tastes divinely good, so who cares?
Besides, it’s also a great way to make use of any excess of sourdough starter, if you happen to have some.
Tarte Au Sucre, or sugar pie, origins from France, but I suppose you have already figured that out. I found the recipe in a book written by Jan Hedh, a Swedish baker and pastry chef. The original recipe didn’t contain any sourdough starter, but I wanted to give it a try, and the result was over my expectations.
Serve it with some whipped cream an strawberry or raspberry jam to a cup of strong coffee, and you will be considered a genius by your friends.
No, I’m not kidding. It does taste that good.
