Capture the essence of
summer with this luscious lemon and blueberry tart.
Lemon
Tart with Blueberries
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose
flour
3/4 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cut into small pieces
2/3 cup powdered sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
4 large eggs
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon peel
2 cups blueberries
1 cup whipping cream, whipped to soft peaks
- Preheat oven to 350°F
(175°C).
- Combine flour, butter,
powdered sugar and salt in a food processor. Pulse until mixture
resembles coarse meal. (Or use a pastry cutter as you would when
preparing a pie crust.)
- Turn out into a 10-inch
tart pan. Press even onto bottom and sides of pan to form a uniform
crust. Bake until crust begins to appear dry, about 20 to 25
minutes.
- Meanwhile, whisk together
sugar, eggs, lemon juice and lemon zest in a large bowl. Pour
into warm, baked tart shell. Continue baking for 20 minutes,
or until filling has set. Remove from oven and let cool to room
temperature.
- Serve tart topped with
blueberries and whipped cream.
Makes 10 servings.
