Ingredients

Scale

For the Almond Tart Shells:

  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the Almond Filling:

  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
  • 1/2 cup almond flour

For Topping:

  • 1 cup fresh raspberries
  • 2 tablespoons raspberry jam (optional, for a glossy finish)

Instructions

  1. Make the Tart Shells:
    • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
    • In a food processor, combine almond flour, all-purpose flour, sugar, and salt. Pulse to mix.
    • Add cold butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
    • Add egg yolk and vanilla extract, and pulse until the dough comes together.
    • Press small portions of dough into mini tart pans or a muffin tin, shaping them into shells. Prick the bottoms with a fork to prevent puffing.
    • Bake for 10-12 minutes until lightly golden. Let cool completely.
  2. Prepare the Filling:
    • In a bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
    • Beat in the egg and almond extract.
    • Fold in almond flour until the mixture is smooth.
  3. Assemble and Bake:
    • Spoon the almond filling into the cooled tart shells, filling each about 3/4 full.
    • Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the filling is set and lightly golden.
    • Let cool completely.
  4. Add Topping:
    • Place a few fresh raspberries on top of each tart.
    • If desired, warm raspberry jam and brush it over the raspberries for a glossy finish.

Notes

  • These tarts can be made a day in advance. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
  • Substitute raspberries with your favorite berries or fruits for a twist!
