BERRY ALMOND BAKEWELL



Berry almond bakewell image

Crisp pastry, sweet raspberries and a nutty frangipane filling make this a lovely dinner party dessert or weekend treat. No one will guess it's low in sugar

Provided by Sara Buenfeld

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h15m

Yield cuts into 12 slices

Number Of Ingredients 10

400g shortcrust pastry cut from a 500g block
100g just-thawed frozen raspberries
25g flaked almonds
75g self-raising flour, plus a little extra for dusting
75g ground almonds
150g Total Sweet (xylitol)
150g softened butter
1 tsp baking powder
½ tsp almond extract
3 large eggs

Steps:

  • Thinly roll out the pastry on a lightly floured surface , then use it to line the base and sides of a 25cm non-stick, loose-based tart tin. You can leave a little overhang of pastry, but trim away any noticeable excess. Prick the base with a fork and chill for 20 mins. Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and put a baking sheet inside to heat up.
  • Line the pastry case with baking parchment, fill with baking beans and cook on the hot sheet for 10 mins - the burst of heat from the baking sheet will help to prevent a soggy bottom. Carefully lift off the paper with the beans and bake for 3 mins more to cook the pastry base. Turn down the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4.
  • For the frangipane, put all the ingredients in a large bowl and beat with an electric whisk until well mixed (alternatively, blitz in a food processor). Scatter the raspberries into the pastry case, spoon over the almond mixture and smooth the top with a knife. Scatter over the flaked almonds and bake for 30-40 mins until golden and firm. Carefully trim any excess pastry from the edge of the tart with a sharp knife before serving.
