Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Step 2
Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Let cool slightly.
Step 3
Mix together flour, butter, and powdered sugar in a large bowl until a dough forms. Press dough into a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom.
Step 4
Meanwhile, toss blueberries with cornstarch in a large bowl until evenly coated. Transfer blueberries to a large saucepan over low heat. Add sugar and lemon extract; mix well. Simmer, stirring gently to avoid crushing berries, until sugar dissolves and filling thickens, 5 to 8 minutes.
Step 5
Pour hot blueberry mixture over cooled crust. Let cool before slicing.
