Ingredients
Scale
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice (about 2–3 lemons)
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1/2 cup granulated sugar
3 large eggs
1/4 cup unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1 cup fresh raspberries (plus more for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the vanilla extract and mix until well combined.
Gradually add in the flour and salt. Mix just until the dough comes together.
Press the dough into a 9-inch tart pan evenly across the bottom and up the sides.
Prick the bottom to prevent bubbling.
Bake the crust for about 15-20 minutes, or until lightly golden.
Allow the crust to cool completely while preparing the lemon curd.
In a medium saucepan, whisk together lemon juice, lemon zest, sugar, and eggs until combined.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook while stirring constantly until thickened (about 5-7 minutes).
Remove from heat and whisk in butter pieces until melted and smooth.
Gently fold in the fresh raspberries, leaving some whole.
Pour the lemon raspberry curd into the cooled crust and spread it evenly.
Let it set in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.

A delightful explosion of flavors in a buttery shortbread crust, this raspberry lemon curd tart is easy to make and perfect for any occasion.
