Ingredients for Almond Blackberry Tart

  • Blackberry
  • 1 ½ cups almond meal
  • All Purpose Flour
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • Unsalted Butter

How to Make Almond Blackberry Tart

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Grease a 9-inch springform tart pan or individual tartlet pans with cooking spray or butter.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups almond meal, ½ cup all-purpose flour, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
  4. Cut in ½ cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  5. Stir in ¼ cup honey or agave syrup, 1 large egg, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and ½ teaspoon almond extract until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and gently arrange 1 ½ cups fresh blackberries on top, pressing them lightly into the batter.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the blackberries are bubbling slightly. Let cool completely before serving.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
