Ingredients of Blackberry Tart 

Tart Crust:

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• ⅓ cup granulated sugar
• ½ teaspoon kosher salt
• 10 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted 
• 1 ½ teaspoons almond extract

Creme & Blackberry Filling:

• 4 cups fresh blackberries 
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 2 egg room temperature
• 1 egg yolk
• 1/2 cup lemon juice

• 1 cup unsalted butter cold
• ½ teaspoon salt

Equipment

• 9-inch tart pan
• Mixing bowls
• Baking sheet
• Oven
• Whisk

Making Process

Step:1- Preheat the oven to 400°F.

Step:2- Mix together the flour, sugar and salt in a bowl. Make dough by mixing melted butter and almond extract.

Step:3- Spread dough evenly in a 9 inch tart pan and bake for 10-15 minutes.

Step:4- Mix sugar, eggs, egg yolks, salt and lemon juice together in a bowl. Do not add water. Keep stirring until the mixture thickens. This may take 10-15 minutes. The mixture should be very thick and look like curd. Sugar, yolk will be cooked and become grainy. Allow the mixture to cool.

Step:5- After the mixture has cooled, add 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter to the blender and blend well. Mix the mixture well after each addition. The cream will thicken and the mixture will start to take on a light yellow color.

Step:6- Once the cream is ready, pour the cream into the prepared shell. The mixture will spread evenly in the pan.

Step:7-  Add blackberries. Refrigerate for 1-2 hours before serving. The cream must be cooled. Blackberry tart is cool and served it either with whipped cream or ice cream or plain.
