Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare Tart Crust: In a mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour and cold, cubed unsalted butter. Mix until the texture resembles coarse crumbs. Slowly add cold water, mixing until a dough forms. Chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  2. Bake Crust: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out the chilled dough and fit it into tart pans. Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown, then cool.
  3. Make Custard: Whisk together honey, room temperature eggs, and vanilla yogurt until smooth. Pour into the pre-baked tart shells. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 20 minutes until edges are set.
  4. Prepare Lemon Curd: In a saucepan, combine lemon juice, zest, and sugar. Whisk continuously until thickened. Allow to cool, then drizzle over the tarts.
  5. Cool and Serve: Let the tarts cool completely, then top with sliced strawberries. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
