Ingredients

  • For the crust:
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 2 tablespoons cold water
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • For the frangipane filling:
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon almond extract
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • For the topping:
  • 1 to 1 1/2 cups fresh raspberries
  • 2 tablespoons sliced almonds
  • 1 tablespoon powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, combine flour, sugar, and salt. Cut in cold butter until crumbly. Add egg yolk and water, mix into dough, shape into a disk, wrap, and chill for 30 minutes.
  2. Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Roll out dough, press into tart pan, trim edges, prick base, and chill for 10 minutes.
  3. Bake crust for about 15 minutes until lightly golden, then set aside.
  4. Cream softened butter and sugar until fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well.
  5. Stir in almond flour, all-purpose flour, vanilla extract, and almond extract until smooth.
  6. Spread frangipane over crust. Arrange raspberries on top and sprinkle with sliced almonds.
  7. Bake for 30–35 minutes until filling is set and golden.
  8. Cool completely, then dust with powdered sugar before serving.

Notes

  • Do not thaw frozen raspberries before using to avoid excess moisture.
  • Chill the dough well to prevent shrinking.
  • Add lemon zest for a citrus twist.
  • Brush with apricot glaze for a shiny finish.
  • Serve with whipped cream or ice cream for extra indulgence.
