8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted

6 eggs, lightly beaten

9-inch partially baked Sweet Buttery Tart Crust, 1 inch deep (see related recipe)

1-½ cups blueberries, rinsed, sorted, and dried

Confectioners' (powdered) sugar

1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

2. Whisk the lemon juice, grated zest and melted butter in a medium-size bowl. Beat in the eggs and granulated sugar; mix well.
