Lemon Blueberry Tart! – Jane’s Patisserie

A creamy lemon blueberry tart with a biscuit base, lemon filling with a blueberry coulis swirl and whipped cream on high – good summer season bake.

So this pudding is my new favorite obsession, it’s so filled with flavour and excellent for the hotter days if you need one thing fruity and light-weight – it’s DELICIOUS.

Lemon Bakes

So in relation to the bakes of the world, I’m at all times and totally obsessive about all issues lemon. I do know, it’s such a preferred flavour that that is in all probability fairly apparent, however I just do adore it.

I like a lemon bake akin to my lemon meringue blondies, my no-bake lemon cheesecake, and even my lemon and blueberry blondies. I simply adore the zingy and zesty lemon flavour that mixes into no matter themed bake you’ve got, SO properly. It cuts by means of the sweetness, the flavour profile by no means fails, and you may simply put lemon into so many different bakes as properly.

Blueberry Bakes

In terms of the blueberry bakes that I’ve printed, most are additionally mixed with lemon. Such because the blondies I discussed above, my lemon and blueberry rolls, and even my lemon and blueberry cake. I do know, it’s an obsession. In my third ebook I do have my blueberry pie although, and that’s simply unbelievable.

Blueberries, particularly out of season (clearly), are a bit tasteless when they’re contemporary and never cooked. Whenever you bake a blueberry, the color explodes and so does the flavour and it’s simply completely great.

Biscuit base

So, though this recipe is baked, I went for a biscuit base. The idea of this bake is just like a key lime pie (recipe in my first ebook), and it’s extremely simple to make, and it additionally doesn’t soak by means of a biscuit base. I used the identical idea as my different biscuit bottomed tarts akin to my easter chocolate tart.

I used a digestive biscuit, and a few melted butter. You should utilize a block butter or a baking unfold, each work properly. I used the full-fat digestive because it’s the most effective to make use of. If you wish to use a light-weight biscuit, chocolate coated biscuit or crammed biscuit you’ll need to use 1/2-2/3 of the butter as they want much less.

Lemon filling

The lemon filling is a straightforward 4 ingredient combination, that in case you haven’t seen this fashion of filling earlier than might sound a bit bizarre, however belief the method, I promise.

• Condensed milk – I used one tin of full-fat condensed milk on this recipe, the low fats one might not bake the identical and never set.
• Lemon – I used the zest and juice of two commonplace sized lemons, you probably have an enormous lemon you’ll need to use in all probability just one.
• Egg – you solely want the egg yolk, however you employ two. You may freeze the whites to make one thing else sooner or later akin to meringue.

Blueberry coulis

I needed to swirl some blueberries into the combination in addition to including some regular blueberries, however the one approach to actually do that is utilizing a coulis or jam. As a result of it’s blueberries, I made a decision to make my very own blueberry coulis because it’s extremely simple.

• Blueberries – I used contemporary blueberries for this, however frozen does work for the coulis.
• Cornflour – one tablespoon is designed to assist thicken the coulis which is essential
• Lemon – lemon juice helps every little thing blueberry style higher but in addition balances the sweetness
• Sugar – a bit sprinkle of sugar to assist with the tartness and steadiness the flavour as properly

After making a blueberry coulis, the place all of the elements go right into a pan and mash down and thicken, I additionally sprinkle on some blueberries earlier than baking, as a result of why would you not simply add some extra?!

Ornament

I needed so as to add a ornament, as a result of I at all times do. I added a bit swirl of sweetened whipped cream which is double cream whipped with some icing sugar (You possibly can’t use squirty cream as it would deflate nearly instantly), however that is elective. 

I sprinkled over some additional lemon zest as properly, however you after all depart this off or add much more blueberries. The ornament is a steadiness of sweetness in addition to simply ending off the tart.
