Ingredients
- 1 sheet store-bought puff pastry sheet
- 2 cups fresh blueberries
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon water
- 1 tablespoon powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Roll out the puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface until it is roughly a 10x12-inch rectangle. Transfer the pastry to the prepared baking sheet.
Step 3
Using a sharp knife, gently score a 1-inch border around the edges of the pastry without cutting all the way through. This will form the crust.
Step 4
In a medium bowl, combine the blueberries, granulated sugar, lemon zest, and cornstarch. Toss until the blueberries are evenly coated.
Step 5
Spoon the blueberry mixture evenly onto the center of the pastry, keeping it within the scored border.
Step 6
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to make an egg wash. Brush the egg wash onto the edges of the pastry to give it a golden finish as it bakes.
Step 7
Bake the tart in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown and the blueberries are bubbling.
Step 8
Remove the tart from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes on the baking sheet.
Step 9
Optional: Dust the tart with powdered sugar before serving for a touch of sweetness.
Step 10
Slice into portions and serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your effortless blueberry tart!
