- Sweet Pastry Crust
- Flour1 ¼ cups
- Sugar⅔ cups
- Salt¼ tsp
- Butter · diced8 tbsp
- Blueberry3 cups
- Cornstarch2 tbsp
- Lemon8 tsp
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- For the pastry, whisk together flour, sugar and salt. Cut in the butter cubes with your fingertips or a pastry cutter until coarse. Add water one tablespoon at a time until a dough forms.
- Press the dough evenly across the bottom and 3/4 to 1 inch up the sides of a 9-inch tart shell, preferably with a removable bottom. Bake for 15 minutes, until light golden brown. Let cool while you make the filling.
- In a pot over medium-high heat, combine 1/4 cup water and 2 cups blueberries. Cook about 5 minutes, until the berries are soft and the mixture is bright purple.
- Dissolve the cornstarch in 2 tablespoons cold water in a small bowl, then stir it into the blueberries with the sugar, lemon zest and lemon juice. Combine well.
- Simmer 5-10 minutes, until the mixture thickens.
- Remove from the heat and stir in the remaining 1 cup of fresh blueberries.
- Pour into the cooled crust and refrigerate 4 hours, or until set and cool.
- To serve, push the removable bottom up to lift the tart out of the ring, and serve from the pan base.
