- Chill the dough for 10-15 minutes before pressing it into a tart tin.
- Press the dough evenly into the bottom and up the sides of the tart tin.
- Bake the crust covered with foil for 25-30 minutes until lightly golden.
- Meanwhile, whisk together lemon zest, lemon juice, eggs, and remaining lavender sugar. Gradually whisk in ¼ cup of flour.

Notes
Use culinary lavender for safety and the best flavor infusion. Adjust the sugar levels to your preference for sweetness.
