Ingredients
Scale
- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 3/4 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cubed
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons cold water
- 2 cups strawberries, sliced
- 1 cup vanilla yogurt
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 large eggs
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 cup lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup lemon zest (about 2 lemons)
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cubed
- Pinch of coarse salt
Instructions
- Make the Lemon Curd: In a medium saucepan over low heat, whisk together the butter, sugar, lemon juice, zest, and salt until combined. Add the eggs one at a time, whisking well after each addition. Cook over low heat for about 8-9 minutes while whisking frequently until thickened. Remove from heat and let cool completely. Chill in the fridge.
- Make the Pie Dough: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, and sea salt. Add chilled butter and mix until it resembles peas. Stir in vanilla extract and cold water until dough comes together. Shape into a ball, divide into quarters, flatten into discs, wrap in plastic, and chill for 15 minutes to 1 hour. Roll out into 5-inch circles and line four 4-inch tart pans. Prick bottoms, line with parchment paper, and add baking beans. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove paper and beans. Let cool completely.
- Assemble the Tarts: In a bowl, whisk together eggs, sugar, and vanilla extract for the filling. Stir in honey yogurt. Place sliced strawberries on cooled crusts and pour custard filling over. Bake for 30-35 minutes until crust is golden and custard is set. Let cool for 5 minutes and drizzle with lemon curd before serving.
Notes
Store leftover tarts in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They stay fresh for about 2-3 days. You can also make the tart crusts ahead of time and fill them just before serving.
