- Use high-quality almonds for the best flavor. Toasting the almonds before using enhances their flavor even more.
- Make sure the butter is cold when you add it to the flour mixture. This will help to create a flaky crust.
- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the crust tough.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out. This will help to prevent the dough from shrinking in the oven.
- Bake the pie crust until it is golden brown. This will help to ensure that the crust is cooked through.
- Make sure the pudding is completely cool before pouring it into the pie crust. This will help to prevent the pudding from curdling.
- Chill the pie for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow the pudding to set and the flavors to meld.
