Tips:

  • To make the salted shortbread crust, you can use a food processor or a stand mixer. If using a food processor, pulse the ingredients until they are well combined and resemble coarse crumbs. If using a stand mixer, beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, then add the flour and salt and mix until just combined.
  • When rolling out the shortbread dough, use a lightly floured surface to prevent it from sticking. You can also use a rolling pin with guides to help you achieve an even thickness.
  • When baking the shortbread crust, prick the bottom with a fork to prevent it from puffing up. You can also use pie weights or dried beans to weigh down the crust while it bakes.
  • For the lemon filling, use fresh lemon juice and zest for the best flavor. You can also add a tablespoon of lemon extract for a more intense lemon flavor.
  • When making the honey glaze, heat the honey and water over low heat until the honey has dissolved. You can also add a tablespoon of lemon juice to the glaze for a more tart flavor.
  • To assemble the tart, spread the lemon filling over the cooled shortbread crust. Then, drizzle the honey glaze over the filling. You can also garnish the tart with fresh lemon slices or zest.

Conclusion:

The lemon honey tart with salted shortbread crust is a delicious and refreshing dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The tart crust is buttery and flaky, and the lemon filling is tangy and sweet. The honey glaze adds a touch of sweetness and shine. This tart is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
