Project Description

SERVES : Makes 2 tarts

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 sheets of Mountain Bread of your choice

  • 1 cup of almond meal

  • 1 tsp of vanilla essence

  • 1 egg white

  • 1 tbsp of honey

  • 3 tbsp of flaked natural almonds

METHOD

  1. Pre-heat oven to 160ºc (320ºf)
  2. Grease 2 x small pie dishes (approx. 10cm in diameter) with a small amount of butter. Using some clean paper towel ensures you don’t need to much butter to coat the whole dish.
  3. Cut 2 x squares about the size of your pie dish from the Mountain Bread. Layer in the dishes, overlapping on the bottom.
  4. To make the almond filling, mix the almond meal, vanilla, egg white and honey in a small bowl well.
  5. Spoon half the almond mixture into the first Mountain Bread tart case, levelling the top as much as possible.
  6. Repeat with the second tart.
  7. Use kitchen scissors to trim any excess Mountain Bread off edges (be sure to leave a lip, but anything too large may burn).
  8. Top the tarts with flaked almonds.
  9. Bake for 15 minutes or until the tart is firm and the Mountain Bread is crisp.
  10. Serve sprinkled with extra almond meal & a drizzle of honey.
