Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Almond flour

- 100 grams Unsalted butter
- 1 large Egg
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 150 grams Shelled pistachios
- 150 ml Heavy cream
- 100 grams Mascarpone cheese
- 80 grams Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
In a bowl, mix the almond flour, powdered sugar, and salt.
Add the unsalted butter (cut into small cubes) into the dry ingredients and mix until crumbly.
Add the egg and mix until a dough forms.
Press the dough evenly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom.
Prick the base of the tart with a fork and place in the refrigerator for 10 minutes to chill.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until lightly golden. Let it cool.
In a food processor, blend the pistachios until finely ground.
In a medium-sized bowl, whip the heavy cream until it forms stiff peaks.
In another bowl, mix the ground pistachios, mascarpone cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the pistachio mixture until well combined.
Pour the pistachio filling into the cooled tart crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
Chill the tart in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to set before serving.
Garnish with additional chopped pistachios on top, if desired, before serving.
