Amarena cherry & almond tart image

This sweet and sour cherry and almond tart from Lina Stores is the ultimate Italian treat. Serve up a slice as the perfect end to any meal

Provided by Lina Stores

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h20m

Yield Makes 12 slices

Number Of Ingredients 11

125g butter
125g golden caster sugar
225g plain flour
½ egg or 1 egg yolk
125g butter , at room temperature
125g golden caster sugar
3 medium eggs
1 lemon , zested
125g finely ground almonds or almond flour
120g Fabbri amarena cherries (see tip)
icing sugar , for dusting (optional)

Steps:

  • Mix together the butter, sugar, flour, a pinch of salt and the egg in a food processor to make a dough, then wrap and leave to rest in the fridge for 30 mins. The dough should be cold but still easy to work with by the time you roll it out.
  • Meanwhile, make the frangipane filling. Melt the butter in a pan over a low heat, then set aside to cool slightly. Beat the sugar with the eggs and lemon zest in a bowl until creamy. Pour in the melted butter while continuing to beat, then add the ground almonds (or almond flour) and fold into the mixture. Heat oven to 175C/155C fan/gas 3½.
  • Line a buttered tart tin or ring mould (approximately 23cm) with the rolled-out pastry dough, then trim any overhanging edges. Spread the frangipane evenly into the tin and arrange the cherries on top with some of their syrup, so the top of the tart is covered in a thin layer.
  • Put the tart in the oven and bake for about 40-45 mins until golden brown, puffed and firm to the touch. Leave to cool on a rack. Dust with some icing sugar, if you like, before serving in slices.

Tips:

  • Use fresh cherries for the best flavor. If fresh cherries are not available, frozen cherries can be used after thawing and draining.
  • Toast the almonds before adding them to the crust. This will give them a richer flavor.
  • Make sure the mascarpone is cold before using. This will help it hold its shape in the tart.
  • If the tart crust is too dry, add a little bit of water until it comes together.
  • If the tart is too runny, chill it for longer before serving.
  • Serve the tart with fresh whipped cream or a dollop of crème fraîche.

Conclusion:

This cherry almond lemon mascarpone tart is a delicious and elegant dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of sweet cherries, nutty almonds, and tangy lemon is sure to please everyone at the table.
