Time 1h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup shelled pistachios
1 vanilla bean, scraped
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
½ cup confectioners' sugar, plus more for decorating
1 egg
1 egg white
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
1 tablespoon brandy
2 tablespoons lemon zest
8 fresh figs
cooking spray

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spray four 3 3/4 inch (9.5 centimeter) tart pans with cooking spray.
  • In food processor, process nuts and vanilla bean to a fine texture. Sift flour and confectioner's sugar together, and add to nuts; pulse to combine. Add egg, egg white, butter, brandy, and lemon zest. Pulse to combine. Slice 6 figs into 3/4 inch (2 centimeter) thick slices, and stir into batter. Divide batter into tart pans. Cut remaining figs into thin slices, and arrange over batter in each tart pan.
  • Bake until tarts are set and golden brown, about 40 minutes. When cool, sprinkle with additional confectioner's sugar.
