Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/4 cups (150g) all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1/2 cup (115g) cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • 1 large egg yolk
  • 1/2 cup (120ml) lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 3/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup (60ml) heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons (30g) unsalted butter
  • Fresh raspberries for topping

Instructions

  1. In a food processor, combine flour, sugar, and salt. Add cold butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add egg yolk and pulse until the dough comes together. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  2. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out the chilled dough on a floured surface to fit a 9-inch tart pan. Press it into the pan and trim the edges. Line the crust with parchment paper and fill with baking weights. Blind-bake for 15 minutes, then remove weights and bake for another 5 minutes. Let cool completely.
  3. In a medium saucepan, whisk together lemon juice, lemon zest, sugar, and eggs. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until thickened (about 8-10 minutes). Remove from heat and stir in heavy cream and butter until smooth.
  4. Pour the lemon filling into the cooled crust and smooth the surface with a spatula. Arrange fresh raspberries on top in a decorative pattern.
  5. Refrigerate the tart for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the filling to set.

Notes

Keep butter cold for a flaky crust. Blind-baking is essential to prevent a soggy crust. Stir the lemon filling constantly to avoid curdling. Chill the tart for at least 2 hours before serving for the best texture.
