Recipe information-Raspberry and Almond Frangipane Tart
1 hour 45 min
Ingredients
- 1 sheet of ready-made puff pastry
- 1 cup of fresh raspberries
- 1/2 cup of almond meal
- 1/2 cup of sugar
- 1/3 cup of butter
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp of almond extract
- 1/4 cup of sliced almonds
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 25 minutes
Total Time: 40 minutes
Instructions
To start, preheat your oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Roll out the puff pastry sheet onto the prepared baking sheet, then use a knife to score a 1-inch border around the edge. Prick the inside of the pastry with a fork to prevent it from puffing up too much in the oven.
Next, in a mixing bowl, cream together the almond meal, sugar, butter, egg, and almond extract until smooth and well combined. Spread this almond frangipane mixture evenly over the center of the puff pastry, within the scored border. Top the frangipane with the fresh raspberries, gently pressing them into the mixture.
Finally, sprinkle the sliced almonds over the top of the tart before placing it in the oven to bake for 25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the frangipane is set. Allow the tart to cool slightly before slicing and serving.
Conclusion
Whether you're hosting a dinner party or simply looking to treat yourself to a special dessert, this Raspberry and Almond Frangipane Tart is sure to delight. With its winning combination of textures and flavors, it's a true taste of British baking at its finest. So why not give it a try and indulge in a slice of sweet perfection?
