Blueberry Lemon Tart
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cut into small pieces
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup ice water
- 2 cups fresh blueberries
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- Zest of 1 lemon
- Juice of 1 lemon
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
Instructions
- In a food processor, combine 1 1/2 cups of flour, 1/4 cup of sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Add the cold butter pieces and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- While pulsing, gradually add the ice water until the dough comes together. Be careful not to overmix. Shape the dough into a disk, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large bowl, gently toss the blueberries with 1/2 cup of sugar, cornstarch, lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla extract until well combined. Set aside.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough into a 12-inch circle. Carefully transfer the dough to a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom. Press the dough into the bottom and up the sides of the pan. Trim any excess dough.
- Pour the blueberry mixture into the prepared crust.
- Brush the edges of the crust with the beaten egg to create a golden brown finish.
- Bake the tart for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the blueberry filling is bubbling. If the crust starts to brown too quickly, cover the edges with foil.
- Allow the tart to cool completely before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
