Preparation 30 minutes preparation + 20 minutes cooking

1
Prepare short crust pastry by combining butter, at room temperature, with sugar and then eggs. Combine flour with a pinch of salt and grated zest of half a lemon and add it to the mixture.

2
Wrap in foil and set aside for 30 minutes. In a bowl, strain ricotta through a sieve and combine with sugar, two egg yolks and one whole egg, orange and lemon zest, a pinch of cinnamon and rum.

3
Mix well, stir in candied fruit. Combine. Roll out ¾ of the pastry dough (1/8 inch thick) and line bottom and side of a round buttered tart pan. Fill with ricotta mixture, spreading evenly.

4
Roll out remaining dough, cut strips to cover the edge of the tart and create a lattice across the filling. Brush with beaten egg and bake in a 350°F oven until crust looks golden and crisp. Set out to cool. Dust with vanilla sugar before serving.
