Directions
Grease the outside of a baking tin approx.
14" x 14" x 2" deep and cover with the pastry, turning over the edges to make a firm rim.
Place the tin on a baking sheet, prick the pastry all over and bake at 400° F for 15 minutes.
Remove from oven and remove the pastry very carefully onto a baking sheet.
Return to the oven and bake for about 5 minutes until the inside is golden brown.
Cool.
Blend cream cheese, sugar, lemon peel and cream and beat until smooth.
Chill for 2 hrs.
Slice bananas and sprinkle with lemon juice.
Assemble the tart, starting with a layer of cream cheese mixture and covering it with rows of fruit.
Heat the jam and glaze the fruit with it.
Refrigerate for one hour before serving.
