Matcha Almond Tart

I am getting into almond tart lately.
I promise never hate this forever.


Easy to arrange various kinds of almond tart.

Everyone loves basic caramelized almond tart.
My best friend loves cocoa type.
My family loves matcha type.

Just add your favorite flavor into filling.

Matcha flavor spreads over in my mouth. Heavenly☆




** Matcha Almond Tart recipe**

<tart base> for 15cm (6 inch )  2 tart molds or 18cm (7 inch )1 tart mold
15g unsalted butter
40g sugar powder
1/2 egg
150g pastry flour
15g almond powder

1. Put room temperature butter in a bowl. Add sugar powder and mix them.
2. Add egg to the bowl and mix them until smooth.
3. Add almond powder and combine them. Make one batch.
4. Wrap tart dough and keep it in the fridge for 12-24 hour.
5. Cut tart dough in half (possible to keep another half in freezer). Press the dough on the table with wrap or flour not to stick. If the tart dough gets melting, keep it back in the fridge, and start to press again. Transfer the dough into tart mold.
7. Press the dough onto bottom and sides of tart mold firmly and keep it in the fridge again for 1 hour.
8. Put the baking paper on tart dough and put tart stones onto it.
8. Bake the tart dough in preheated oven at 180°C for 12 minutes. Remove tart stones and baking paper and put it back to the oven and bake it for 5 minutes. If the dough is baked completely, don't mind (we bake the dough again with filling later).
