Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• ¼ cup white sugar
• 1 teaspoon lemon extract
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch
• ½ cup powdered sugar
• 1 cup butter, at room temperature
• 3 cups blueberries

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 2

Mix flour, butter, and powdered sugar together until a dough forms. Press dough into a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom.

Step 3

Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Let cool slightly.

Step 4

Meanwhile, toss blueberries with cornstarch and place in a saucepan over low heat. Add sugar and lemon extract. Simmer, stirring gently to avoid crushing the berries, until sugar dissolves and filling thickens, 5 to 8 minutes.

Step 5

Pour blueberry filling over the cooled crust. Let cool before slicing.
