Ingredients

Scale

1 ¼ cups (158g) all-purpose flour
⅓ cup (38g) confectioners' sugar
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
8 tablespoons unsalted butter (cut into cubes and chilled)
1 large egg yolk
1 tablespoon heavy cream
½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
¼ cup lemon zest + ½ cup juice (from 4 lemons)
1 large egg + 5 large yolks
⅓ cup honey
Kosher salt
4 tablespoons unsalted butter (cut into 4 pieces and chilled)
2 tablespoons heavy cream
10 ounces (2 cups) blueberries
2 tablespoons cornstarch
¼ cup honey

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare the tart crust by mixing flour, confectioners' sugar, and salt in a bowl. Cut in chilled butter until crumbly. Stir in egg yolk, heavy cream, and vanilla extract until dough forms.
Press the dough into a 9-inch tart pan and chill for 30 minutes. Bake for 20-25 minutes until set.
For the lemon curd, combine lemon juice, zest, honey, eggs, and yolks in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook while stirring until thickened; strain to remove lumps.
Pour the lemon curd into the cooled crust and bake for another 20-25 minutes.
For the blueberry topping, cook blueberries with honey and cornstarch until thickened. Once the tart has cooled slightly, pour the blueberry mixture on top.
