Sour-Cherry Frangipane Tart image

An elegant French-inspired tart to showcase delicate sour cherries. Its almond-flour shortbread crust tastes nutty (and doesn't require any rolling) and the frangipane filling provides a silky canvas for the fruit. The finishing touches: confectioners' sugar and cups of hot coffee.

Yield Makes one 9-inch tart

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 stick unsalted butter, melted, plus more for pan
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 1/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1/2 cup almond flour
Kosher salt
2 large eggs
1/3 cup heavy cream
3/4 teaspoon pure almond extract
1/3 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons unbleached all-purpose flour
1/2 cup almond flour
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/2 cups fresh sour cherries, rinsed, drained, and pitted (about 9 ounces)
Confectioners' sugar, for serving

Steps:

  • Crust: Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Butter a 9-inch fluted tart pan with a removable bottom. Pour melted butter over granulated sugar; stir to dissolve. Let cool 10 minutes. Whisk together both flours and 1/2 teaspoon salt; stir into butter mixture until thoroughly combined.
  • Press dough into prepared pan, making sides slightly thicker than bottom. Freeze until firm, 15 minutes. Bake on a rimmed baking sheet until slightly puffed and golden, about 20 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack; let cool completely.
  • Filling: Meanwhile, whisk together eggs, cream, almond extract, and granulated sugar. In another bowl, whisk together both flours and salt, then whisk into egg mixture until smooth. Arrange cherries in cooled crust in a single layer; gently pour batter around them. Bake, rotating once, until golden brown and just set, 35 to 40 minutes. Let tart cool at least 30 minutes, dust with confectioners' sugar, and serve.

This tart was a bit too tart for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I think next time I'll use a different type of cherry, like a sweet cherry.

This tart was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I think next time I'll use less sugar in the filling.

Followed the recipe exactly and it turned out perfectly. The tart was beautiful and delicious. The only thing I would change is to use a different type of cherry, as I found the sour cherries to be a bit too tart for my taste.

This sour cherry frangipane tart was an absolute delight! The tart crust was flaky and buttery, the frangipane filling was rich and almondy, and the sour cherries added a perfect balance of tartness and sweetness. I'll definitely be making this again
