What a dessert! No matter what work day (or week) you go through, this blueberry tart will yield a big smile on your face or at least a sigh of relief 🙂
Allow yourself to relax in the armchair with a cup of coffee, a generous slice of this ‘blue-purple’ delight, topped with a scoop of ice cream.
The preparation is so simple; plus, you can prepare the dough in advance and freeze it!
Prepare the crust, divide it in half, and place it in the fridge for half an hour; Line a tart pan with the crust; mix blueberries, maple syrup, salt, vanilla, allspice, and cornstarch diluted with water, and place on top of the crust.
Roll out the other part of the dough, cut it into strips, and place it in a two-and-even shape on top of the filling.
Bake until golden, let cool, and serve with vanilla ice cream or white chocolate ice cream.
