About our Lemon Tart Recipe
This gorgeous lemon tart, or tart au citron in French, is so versatile it can be perfect for a special dinner party or simply a picnic in summer. The lovely buttery pastry and zesty filling is wonderful served with a scoop of clotted cream.
Why does my lemon tart crack?
The most common reasons why your tart has cracked is because the oven was too hot or the tart baked too long and overbaked. We recommend pulling your lemon tart from the oven when it's still a little jiggly in the middle when the pan is gently shaken.
