How to Make Sweet Cherry Almond Tart
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Prepare the tart crust: In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, and salt. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the ice water until the dough just comes together. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill for at least 30 minutes.
- Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface and fit it into a 9-inch tart pan. Trim and crimp the edges.
- Prick the bottom of the crust with a fork and blind bake for 15 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool slightly.
- Prepare the cherry filling: In a bowl, gently toss the cherries with almond extract, sugar, and cornstarch.
- Spread the cherry mixture evenly over the cooled crust.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, cream, and almond flour. Pour this mixture over the cherries.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown.
- Let the tart cool completely on a wire rack before serving. Garnish with sliced almonds (optional).
