Slowly add in flour and mix until combined. 4. Press mixture into a tart pan evenly, making sure to place on both the bottom and the sides of the pan.
5. Place in oven for 15 min or until the edges of the crust are slightly browned.
Lemon Filling:
1. As the crust is baking, we can make the lemon filling
2. Mix the sweetened condensed milk, egg yolk, Meyer Lemon Balsamic Vinegar, lemon zest, and lemon juice together in a medium bowl until smoothly combined.
Now let’s combine everything!
1. Once crust is done pull out from the oven and poke holes all around the base of the crust using a fork (helps filling stick!).
2. Pour filling over hot crust and add dollops of the blueberry compote to the top (no need to use all).
3. Using a knife or a toothpick, swirl the blueberry compote around the top of the filling.
4. Place in oven and bake for 20 minutes or until the center has a slight jiggle.
5. Chill in a refrigerator until cold all the way through and enjoy!
