Leave it to me to finish my Recipe Redux recipe the day before I have to post it 
I didn’t know if I would be able to participate this month, now that I’m living at my grandparent’s house – will I be able to bake??
Luckily I don’t think I’ll have a problem. Granted, I probably won’t be cooking as much as I usually do, but if I can at least do a little bit I’ll be fine! I’ve been so busy moving/setting up the garage sale that I don’t even have much time for experimenting in the kitchen anyway.
This month’s theme:
“Floral Flavors – Nothing brightens up a dish like a real flower! Whether you live in the northern or the southern hemisphere, edible flowers can add flavor and aroma to salads, breads, spreads, desserts or dips. Make your recipe bloom with rose water, flowering herbs, floral teas, dried lavender blossoms or even fresh flowers like nasturtiums, violets, borage, squash, sunflowers or pretty much any blossom in a vegetable garden.”
Flowers?! Um, okay. Definitely a little out of my comfort zone, but that’s why I love the Recipe ReDux – it challenges me to try new things! I decided to go with dried lavender, which I found at my local health food store.
Doesn’t a blueberry tart totally sound like something you’d find at Grandma’s house? I had to run outside (to try to find my flour sack for pictures… didn’t find it) and when I walked into the house it just smelled like a grandma’s house should smell. <3
Tarts are actually super duper easy. The only downside is that you have to let the dough chill for a half hour before you bake it. But you can take that time and eat some lunch like it did! Plus the dough is made with whole wheat flour. Bonus!
OKAY. Let’s do it. I used wild blueberries from camp that I froze last summer. They’re smaller than store bloobs and, in my opinion, way better. We’re gonna coat them in some lemon juice, lavender, and coconut sugar.
Coconut sugar? I <3 that stuff. It’s so much better than white sugar and it’s basically a superfood.
Once we roll out the dough, we spoon the bloob mixture into the center and start folding it all around. Then we brush the top with some melted buttah + more coconut sugar <3
This is kind of a mini tart. I didn’t want to make a normal-sized tart because I only have one bag of bloobs left. Gotta save some for my oats
Look at that juice dripping!!!

This looks simply amazing and blueberries are so sweet and plump right now! Tweak the crust to make it gluten free and I’m set with a dish for a family get together

You’re right! I’ve never worked with gluten free flour before but I’m sure it would work fine!
Yum! Look at those juicy berries! What a gorgeous tart!

Thanks, Kelly!
Wow this looks absolutely to die for! I am loving that blueberries are in season because I’m obsessed and eat way too many. This tart looks so simple, I love how few of ingredients it is. And smart with using a dried flower, I don’t know why I didn’t think to do that after searching for days for an edible flower at all the local places!

Thanks Christine! I feel like I’m getting better everyday!!
This looks SO delicious. Love blueberries and haven’t baked with them yet this spring/summer. Bet it would be amazing with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream.
I forgot to say how good it would be with ice cream, didn’t I

Thanks Cassie! I love taking pictures of my recipes!
Omigosh this looks amazing! Wow <3 <3 <3 I have tried so hard to come up with recipes, but it is just not working
Don’t stress about coming up with new recipes! What helped me was making a lot of other bloggers’ recipes and seeing how they combine different ingredients!
I love the coconut sugar for baking, too! It gives such a great color. And lavender and blueberries sounds like a perfect combination!
Coconut sugar is wonderful! Thank you
Oh wow, this looks heavenly!! Now I’m hungry
Thank you, Liz!
