Whats for Dessert - Nectarine and Almond Tart p6

Recipe Review:  Nectarine and Almond Tart - Whats for Dessert p6

Picked a whole lot of blackberries today, and the kids asked for blackberry tart.  I followed this recipe with only minor tweaks - used vanilla powder in the pastry, left out the almond essence in the frangipane filling, and used blackberries instead of nectarines.

This is absolutely the BEST fruit tart I have ever made - and so easy too.  Could easily have served this up to guests.  Would be equally delicious with any fruit I think, so is a very versatile recipe.

And I still have the other half of the pastry in the freezer, so can whip up another one in no time flat.

5/5 for sure.  Thanks Tenina  :-*

Karen that looks so lovely. I am jealous of you and Amanda picking your blackberries. I will have to use nectarines.

Made this again yesterday, but used rapadura sugar in the pastry and in the frangipane filling, and IMHO even nicer than the original - delicious  ;D ;D ;D
