Description
A simple, showstopping tart with bright lemon curd-like custard studded with juicy blueberries, set in a crisp tart shell.
Ingredients
- 1 pre-made tart shell (9-inch)
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 1 cup lemon juice
- 1 cup sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter (melted and cooled)
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and place a rack in the center.
- Crack the eggs into a medium bowl, add the sugar, and whisk briskly until the mixture lightens and becomes frothy.
- Stir in the lemon juice, lemon zest, and cornstarch until completely smooth and lump-free.
- Pour in the melted butter and whisk until the filling is glossy and combined.
- Gently fold the fresh blueberries into the filling.
- Pour the mixture into the pre-made tart shell, spreading it out evenly.
- Bake for 25–30 minutes, until set at the edges and slightly wobbly in the center.
- Remove from the oven and let cool on a rack; chill for at least an hour before slicing.
Notes
Serve with whipped cream or crème fraîche. Tastes best when chilled.
