Lemon Glaze Tart

Tart with blackberry jam and lemon glaze.
I made this tart with an olive oil crust, filled with blackberry jam and finished with a delicious lemon glaze. It’s a simple yet special dessert: the flavors blend perfectly together, creating a truly unique taste contrast. The crust is pleasantly biscuit-like and light, making it ideal to start the day with a nutritious breakfast or for a special snack.

Let’s get messy… Enjoy the recipe. Giusi.

Ingredients for the Lemon Glaze Tart

  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup raw cane sugar (or granulated)
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil (or vegetable oil)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 cup blackberry jam
  • 2 egg whites
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Steps for the Lemon Glaze Tart

  • In a bowl, pour the flour and eggs and mix with a fork, add the sugar, the teaspoon of baking powder, and mix.
    At this point, start adding the oil a little at a time, begin to knead with your hands until you form a smooth and homogeneous dough.
    When the crust is ready, wrap it in plastic wrap and place it in the fridge to rest for an hour.

  • Take the dough from the fridge and place it on a lightly floured sheet of parchment paper and roll out the dough with a rolling pin.

  • With a teaspoon, place the jam near the edges.
    Take the edges and fold them inward until the jam is covered (see photo).

  • In a container, pour the powdered sugar, the two egg whites, and the tablespoon of lemon juice and beat with electric beaters until you create a firm consistency.

  • Place and level the lemon glaze over the surface of the crust.
    With the help of a spoon, create stripes with the blackberry jam.

    I made the tart directly on a sheet of parchment paper and then placed it on the oven rack. But if you prefer, place it inside a mold.

  • Bake at 350°F in a preheated static oven for 30-35 minutes.
    Let the tart cool completely before serving.
