Lemon tart is one of the original greats – a timeless dessert that cleanses the palate with a blast of citrus, while soothing a sweet tooth at the same time.
In a bowl, whisk eggs, sugar, cream, lemon juice and zest
Stand for 5 to 6 minutes.
Pour mixture into pastry shell and bake for 20 to 30 minutes, until the mixture is just set
Cool for 15 minutes or until room temperature
Decorate with thin lemon slices, finger lime pearls, or even a light dusting of icing sugar
Notes
Will freeze well in an airtight container for up to 3 months. Allow the tart to defrost in the fridge before serving. Make ahead: once it’s baked, the tart will keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
