Swedish Almond Tart
Swedish Almond Tart offers a rich taste of ALMOND in every bite thanks to its almond paste filling and topping of caramelized, glazed almond pieces.
Ingredients
Almond Glaze:
- 100 grams almonds slivered/sliced
- 75 grams of butter unsalted
- 75 grams cream
- 50 grams sugar
- 50 grams of golden syrup
Almond Paste:
- 220 grams of almond meal
- 110 grams sugar
- 50 grams of powdered sugar
- 6 tsp milk
Tart Crust:
- 1 pc 8-inch pie/tart dough
- butter for greasing pan
Instructions
Prepare the almond glaze:
- Place almonds, butter, cream, sugar, and syrup in a small saucepan. Bring to a gentle boil and allow the sugar to dissolve fully.
- To prevent burning, keep the heat on medium-low and stir occasionally. Once the sauce has slightly thickened, turn off the heat.
Prepare the almond paste:
- To start the almond paste, combine almond meal, sugar, powdered sugar, and milk using a food processor.
- Pulse to combine, then check the consistency of the paste. Make sure it's not too wet.
To assemble:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- Place the pie or tart dough in an 8-inch pan greased with butter.
- Add almond paste on top of the tart crust and place in the oven for around 20 minutes or until the top has browned a bit.
- After 20 mins, remove the tart from the oven and spread the glazed almonds on top.
- Return the Swedish almond tart to the oven and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes or until the top is brown. Set aside to cool. Serve.
