Lemon Blueberry Tart
This blueberry tart is made with a homemade gluten free pastry crust. The ingredients are pretty basic. I replaced half of the rice flour with millet flour giving it a nutritional boost and buttery flavor. It has a thick crumbly, cookie-like crust, on the outer edges, and the bottom crust under the filling is slightly cake like. The buttery millet crust is filled with slightly sweetened, creamy lemon custard and fresh BC Blueberries. The perfect summer dessert!

Lemony Lemon Cake
I think it's important for everyone to have a great, reliable, and a killer cake recipe that they can pull out when the need arises. There are always get-togethers, potlucks, and pool parties when you just want to bake a homemade cake that is both pleasing to the eye and to the palate. This one is mine and dare I say, it could be yours too. Bursting with bright lemon flavor, this cake's got a great softer crumb and tender moist texture.

Finally, the cake is decorated with lemon curd which adds an explosion of lemon flavor to every bite.
