Step 1

Cut the butter into little cubes and place it in the fridge for 15 min.

Step 2

In a mixer, add flour, powdered sugar, almond flour, and salt. Mix well.

Step 3

Add the butter cubes and blend until all incorporated to a sandy texture.

Step 4

Add the eggs and blend just until a dough is formed. It's ok if you still have some dry parts that didn't incorporate completely.

Step 5

Take the dough out of the mixer and just bring all the dough together. Don't work it, we don't want to develop any unnecessary gluten bonds.

Step 6

Wrap the dough and place it in the fridge for at least 3 hours (maximum a day).

Step 7

On a floured surface, split the dough into two parts. The other half you are not using at that moment- wrap and place in the fridge.

Step 8

Using a rolling pin, open the dough to a 1/3 cm thickness.

Step 9

So now it goes like this- If you want to make a big tart, open it a little bigger than the tart pan. Carefully cover the pan with the dough and press the dough into the edges. If you decide to do a small individual tart- score the dough with the tart rings- that's your tart base. Cut strips of dough and press them to the ring edges. Make sure you lightly press the ring to the tart base.

Step 10

Clean the edges of the tart with the dull side of the knife.

Step 11

Place the tart in the freezer for 30 min.

Step 12

Preheat the oven to 350F or 175C.

Step 13

Make holes in the base with a fork.

Step 14

Place parchment paper on top of the frozen tart dough and fill them with raw chickpeas. We will bake them and then remove the chickpeas and continue baking. That technique called "Blind Baking". Blind Baking (sometimes called pre-baking) is the process of baking a pie crust or other pastry without the filling. Blind baking a pie crust is necessary when it will be filled with an unbaked filling (such as with pastry cream), in which case the crust must be fully baked.

Step 15

Bake the tarts for 12 min.

Step 16

Remove the parchment paper and the raw chickpeas and keep baking for another 10-12 min.

Step 17

Remove from the oven and place on a net to cool down completely.

Step 18

Pipe your filling cream into the tart base.

Step 19

Decorate with beautiful toppings (fruits for example). Invite your lovers over and finish it all together.

Step 20

YASSS!
