RECIPE: LEMON SLICE TART
When life hands you 🍋 — make a tart!
The citrusy tang of a lemon tart is the perfect way to cut through a cold Winter's afternoon...
Summer on a spoon, perhaps?
So we're taking the smooth and zesty crowd pleaser and dialling it up to 11 with our Lemon and Yoghurt Slice biscuit base!
Ingredients:
SLICE 'BISCUIT' BASE
- 8 x Lemon and Yoghurt Slice — probably safer to just buy our 21 Slice 'Naked' Pack 😊
- 90g Melted Butter
LEMON CURD (Courtesy of taste.com.au)
- 3 x Lemons
- 4 x Eggs
- 1 Cup Caster Sugar
- 125g Butter, Chopped
——
How to:
- Lightly grease a 2cm deep, 24cm loose based round flan tin.
- In a food processor on a low speed, blend the Lemon and Yoghurt Slice to a crumb consistency.
- Combine the Slice crumb and butter in a bowl, then press into the sides and base of your flan tin. Pop it in the fridge for 1 hour.
- To make your lemon curd, finely grate the rind of 1 lemon. Juice all lemons. Whisk the eggs and sugar in a heatproof bowl until well combined. Add the lemon rind and 2/3 cup of lemon juice, whisking constantly until combined. Place the bowl over a saucepan of simmering water (being careful not to let the water touch the base of the bowl). Cook, stirring with a wooden spoon, for 20-25 minutes until thick and custard-like. Do not allow to boil. Remove from heat and whisk in the butter.
- Pour your lemon curd into the chilled tart base. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight. Dust with icing sugar to serve (if you're being particularly fancy...)
