Lemon Fruit Tart image

Tangy and sweet, bursting with fresh fruit flavor. The original recipe calls for blueberries, but I use whatever fruit is seasonal. Strawberries, peaches, and raspberries all work well. Also, change the lemon filling to lime, then use fresh mango -- divine! I use my homemade apricot jam to glaze the fruit (recipe #246688). Dessert recipe from "The Simple Art of Perfect Baking" by Flo Braker.

The lemon fruit tart was a bit too sour for my taste, but my friends seemed to enjoy it. I think next time I'll add a bit more sugar to the filling to balance out the tartness.

This lemon tart recipe was an absolute delight! The shortbread crust was buttery and crumbly, providing the perfect base for the tangy lemon filling. I loved the balance of flavors between the sweet and sour elements.
