This Blueberry Tart is delicious, lemony and oh so refreshing. It is easy and comes together very fast. If you are a blueberry fan, which I am, this is your dessert! There is a hint of lemon in the cooked portion and then you heap on fresh blueberries and chill. This won’t last long in your house, it doesn’t in mine!
How to Make a Blueberry Tart
1. You need a 9 inch springform pan for this recipe. The tart pops out easily and presents so beautiful with the crust showing on the sides.
2. Preheat the oven to 375°.
3. Coat the springform pan with cooking spray on the sides and the bottom. After making the crust and putting in the pan, you want to push it all around the bottom of the pan and up the sides, just a little.
4. Put one cup of flour, 1/3 cup of granulated sugar and salt in a food processor. Cut the butter into slices and add tot he flour mixture. Pulse the machine until the butter is cut into small, equal size pieces.
Add the egg yolks and pulse until everything is well blended.

5. Pour the dough into the springform pan and push it around until you get an even crust. I like to use a piece of plastic wrap placed on top of the dough. Then I use my fingers to push the dough over the bottom and up the sides just a little.

6. In a bowl, place three cups of blueberries. Then mix in one tablespoon of flour, 1/3 cup of granulated sugar, 1 Tbsp. flour, lemon zest and lemon juice with the spices. Pour this mixture onto the crust and bake for 1 hour or until the blueberry mixture is bubbling. It seems like a long time, but you really want this blueberry mixture to become like jam. It takes a minute or two for the flour and sugar to do their magic and to get the crust cooked.
7. Once you take this out of the oven, place enough fresh blueberries, about 3 cups, over the top to completely cover the baked layer. Cool until room temperature.
8. Place in the refrigerator for two hours or over night. Before serving, dust the top with powdered sugar.
