How to Make This Frangipane Tart

Our summer fruit tart sits on a pistachio crust. We start by creaming butter and sugar together. I usually do this in my stand mixer or food processor, although the process can be accomplished by hand. Once the butter and sugar are well combined, we add in a large egg and beat that until is well incorporated.

A mix of all-purpose flour and ground pistachios is added to the sugar mixture and beaten just long enough for the dough to come together.

The dough is formed into a thin disk, wrapped in plastic, and refrigerated for at least an hour. The dough can be made ahead and stored for several days in the refrigerator.

The refrigerated dough is laid out on a lightly floured flat surface. I like to use my hands at this point and press the dough down into as flat a circle as I can. This is a soft dough, so I’ll move the dough around from time to time to make sure it isn’t sticking to the surface.

Roll the dough into a slightly large circle than the 9-inch tart pan. Lay the dough over the pan and press the dough into the bottom and up the sides.

The tart pan is placed in the refrigerator for 15 to 20 minutes to chill. Once chilled the dough is docked with a fork (tiny holes poked in the dough), lined with parchment paper, filled with pie weights and baked for about 15 minutes in a preheated oven. When removed from the oven, the tart pan is placed on a wire rack, the parchment with the pie weights carefully removed, and the tart shell is cooled completely.

The first thing to go in our tart shell is about a half cup of apricot jam or preserves. This serves two purposes. One, it acts as a barrier to keep the juices from our fresh fruit from reaching the tart shell and making it soggy, and it adds a bit of apricot flavor.

Over our jam we spread our pistachio frangipane. The frangipane bakes up into an almost cake like layer for our roasted fresh fruit to rest on.

The apricot slices, red plum slices, whole pitted cherries, and raspberries are arranged over the frangipane.

The tart is baked in a hot oven for about 35 minutes to set the frangipane and roast the fruit.

This tart is exceptional slightly warm. It pairs well with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
