Apple Almond Tart
This tart made mainly with almond flour and covered with apple is delicious, perfect at any time of the day…
This is a super, really super easy tart recipe, mix all the ingredients for the “batter” or “crust” whatever you want to call it…pour on the pan, layer the slices of apples on the batter and bake.
– Is this a tart even it does not have a crust?
Okay, let’s call it crustless tart…
– Why is this tart is so easy to bake?
Because it is crustless…no need to fuss with pie crust… it is made with almond flour with a layer of apple, the texture is between a cake and pie. Moist and buttery.
– What the difference between this almond tart and frangipane?
Both are made with almond flour…frangipane is more of a filling, as this is more like cake batter, egg and butter.
– How easy it to make this apple almond tart?
As a matter of fact, it so easy that I already made a three times. The tart stays super fresh and moist for a couple of days or you can store in the refrigerator and bring to room temperature when serving.
Should I use vanilla or almond extract?
It is really up to you, I tried both and both are delicious, but my husband prefers the one baked with almond extract…feel free to use whatever flavor you like.
