  • 150 g demerara sugar
  • 7-10 Tbsp Salt
  • 100 g crunchy oats
  • 50 g Pecan kernels
  • 7-10 Tbsp Icing sugar

Directions

  1. 1

    Defrost 500 g blueberries. Mix well with lime juice and jam sugar in a large pot and bring to the boil while stirring. Cook for at least 3 minutes while stirring until bubbly. Stir in 100 g frozen blueberries.

  2. 2

    Pour into a bowl and leave to cool.

    For the dough, melt 250 g butter. Grease a tart mould with a lifting base (26 cm Ø). Mix flour, brown sugar, 1 pinch of salt and oat flakes in a bowl. Add the liquid butter and knead briefly with the dough hooks of the mixer, then knead into crumbles with your hands.

    Preheat oven (electric cooker: 200 °C/circulating air: 175 °C/gas: see manufacturer). Finely chop the nuts and mix with the remaining crumbles. Fill blueberries into the mould, smooth down. Spread the nut crumbles on top.
