Blueberry and Meyer Lemon Puffed Pastry Tart

Ingredients:

  • 1 sheet of puff pastry, thawed
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 2 tablespoons sugar (adjust to taste)
  • 1 tablespoon corn starch
  • Zest of 1 Meyer lemon
  • Juice of 1 Meyer lemon
  • 1 egg (for egg wash)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry sheet to fit your baking sheet. Transfer to the prepared sheet, trimming any excess.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine the fresh blueberries, sugar, corn starch, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Toss until the blueberries are evenly coated.
  4. Spoon the blueberry mixture into the center of the pastry, leaving a border of about 1 inch around the edges.
  5. Fold the edges of the puff pastry over the filling, pressing gently to secure. Be careful not to cover the blueberries completely.
  6. Beat the egg and brush it over the exposed pastry edges for a beautiful golden finish.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.
  8. Once out of the oven, let it cool for a few minutes before slicing.
  9. Dust with powdered sugar if desired, and serve warm or at room temperature.
