shortcrust

  1. For the shortcrust pastry, preheat the oven to 200 ° C. Put the flour with all the ingredients in a large bowl and knead everything quickly. Let the dough rest for about 15 minutes and then roll it out into a tart pan. Bake the dough base in the oven until the edge is a little brownish. Let rest for 5 minutes after baking.

lemon cream

  1. For the lemon cream, stir all the ingredients in a tall mug with a hand mixer and, if the cream is too sour, add a little sugar to taste.
  1. Now pour the lemon cream over the dough. It can be more cream than tart base.
  1. Bake everything in the oven until the lemon mixture turns a little brown. Take the tart out of the oven and let it cool down. Cloud later with powdered sugar.
  1. Whip the cream with a scraped-out vanilla pod until stiff and serve with the tart.
