Author Notes
We love figs and use them very often from the beginning of the season until the very end. I love Frangipane as well and thought the two would go nicely together; I was right! —ChezUs
Ingredients
-
1/2 cup
almonds
-
1/2 cup
sugar
-
2 teaspoons
almond extract
-
3 tablespoons
unsalted butter, organic
-
2
eggs, organic, cage free
-
1
your favorite pate sable
-
1
pint of figs, cut in half
Directions
-
I use a Dorie Greenspan recipe for the Pate Sable, using a rectangle tart pan and following her instructions for baking. Preheat oven to 375.
-
In a food processor combine the almonds and sugar, pulse until coarse. With the processor running, add the butter one tablespoon at a time.
-
Add the extract and the eggs with the food processor on until mixed.
-
Pour into a pre-baked tart pan and smooth the top. Lay the cut figs in the pattern of your choice, on top of the Frangipane.
-
Bake for 40 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool before removing the tart from the baking pan.
-
Serve. Eat.
