    apple almond tart

    Uncategorized

    even though we are not quite out of summer the weather has turned and I’m starting to crave autumn comfort food so i made this almond and apple tart.
    its really easy to make and tastes so nice warm.

    recipe for dough
    200g plain flour
    50g ground almonds
    110g unsalted butter
    2 tbsp caster sugar
    1 egg yolk (keep white for filling)
    pinch of salt
    few drops of almond extract
    in a food processor mix the sugar, flour, salt and almonds with the butter then add the egg yoke and almond extract, pulse until it come together then tip out and roll into a ball and cover and let rest in the fridge for at least 20 minutes.
     
    filling
    1 egg white
    approx 100g ground almonds (add more if mixture to wet)
    50g icing sugar
    few drops of almond extract
     
    mix the icing sugar and ground almonds together then stir into the egg white and add the almond extract and mix until a paste forms
     
    preheat the oven to 180c
    roll out pastry and cut into a circle, spread on the paste then add two apples finely sliced on top and bring the edges of the pastry up and pinch together then brush the pastry with a beaten egg and sprinkle some flaked almonds on top
    bake for approx 20 minutes
    once cooked you can pour on a caramel i just made a sauce in the microwave with melted butter and brown sugar.
