Number Of Ingredients 20

Crust:
Nonstick vegetable oil spray
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt
3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature, cut into 1" pieces
2/3 cup powdered sugar
Filling and assembly:
1 Meyer lemon or thin-skinned regular lemon
1 cup sugar
3 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon finely grated lemon zest
3 large eggs
2 large egg yolks
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
2/3 cup fresh lemon juice, preferably Meyer lemon
Special Equipment
A 9"-diameter springform pan

Steps:

  • For crust:
  • Coat springform pan with nonstick spray. Whisk flour, cornstarch, and salt in a small bowl; set aside. Place butter and powdered sugar in a food processor. Pulse until mixture is smooth. Add dry ingredients to food processor and pulse until mixture resembles medium-size pebbles (dough will not come together completely). Transfer dough to prepared pan. Using your fingers, press dough evenly onto bottom and 1 1/2" up sides of pan. DO AHEAD: Crust can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and chill.
  • For filling and assembly:
  • Using a mandoline, slice lemon into paper-thin rounds. Remove seeds. (If using a regular lemon, blanch slices in boiling water for 4 minutes, drain, and let cool before proceeding). Mix sugar, honey, and lemon zest in a medium bowl. Add lemon slices and toss to coat. Let sit until lemon is softened and sugar is dissolved, 30-45 minutes. DO AHEAD: Lemon slice mixture can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill.
  • Place rack in upper third of oven; preheat to 325°F. Bake crust until center is firm to the touch and edges are beginning to turn golden brown, 30-35 minutes.
  • When crust is almost done baking, whisk eggs and egg yolks in a medium bowl to blend. Whisk flour, cornstarch, and salt in a small bowl; add to egg mixture and whisk to combine. Whisk in lemon juice. Add lemon slice mixture; mix gently to combine.
  • Reduce oven temperature to 300°F. Pour filling into hot crust. Bake until filling is set and slightly puffed around edges, 25-30 minutes. Transfer pan to a wire rack; let cool completely. Chill for at least 4 hours, then unmold. Serve cold. DO AHEAD: Tart can be made 2 days ahead. Cover and keep chilled.

Tips:

  • To make sure your shortbread crust is perfectly crumbly, be sure to use cold butter and work it into the flour mixture quickly. Overworking the dough will make it tough.
  • Don't overcook the lemon curd. It should be thick and spreadable, but not too firm. If you overcook it, it will become grainy.
  • If you don't have a kitchen torch, you can brown the meringue with a broiler. Just keep a close eye on it so that it doesn't burn.
  • This tart is best served chilled. You can make it ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

This lemon honey tart is a delicious and refreshing dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The sweet and tangy lemon curd pairs perfectly with the buttery shortbread crust, and the meringue adds a light and airy texture. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make this tart at home and enjoy a taste of summer all year long.
