Lemon Curd Almond Tart (Gluten Free)

Course: Dessert
Keyword: Tart

Ingredients

Crust Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup almond flour
  • 1/2 cup gluten free 1:1 flour
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter 1 stick
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 tbsp orange juice or water

Lemon Curd Ingredients

  • 2 egg yolks
  • 2 eggs
  • 3/4 cup cane sugar
  • 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 1-2 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp full fat coconut milk or heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup cold butter 1 stick

Instructions

Crust Instructions

  • Add dry ingredients to a food processor and pulse a couple times. Add butter in one cube at a time and pulse once or twice in between - be sure not to over process. Add in orange juice. This can also be done by hand or with a pie crust hand cutter tool.
  • Once a dough has formed (it will be wetter than most pie crusts - it's basically a cookie dough), press it into a greased tart pan.
  • Pop in the freezer while you make the curd.
  • Once curd is finished, poke the tart with a fork all over. Bake at 350 degrees F. for 12-15 minutes, until golden brown

Lemon Curd Instructions

  • Whisk the eggs, sugar, lemon juice, and zest together in a heat-safe glass bowl or the top of a double boiler.
  • Bring a pot of water to a boil and place the bowl over the boiling water (be sure the bottom of the bowl doesn't touch the water! Pour some out if this is the case). I put a wooden spoon between the pot and the bowl to allow some air to escape.
  • Add in the coconut milk and whisk constantly until mixture has thickened and you can pass a wooden spoon through it and it sticks a bit. Mine has taken anywhere from 10-20 minutes to form. Don't stop whisking!
  • Once it has thickened to your liking, carefully remove from heat and whisk the butter in, one cube at a time. Take your time and really whisk it well!
  • Pour the curd into the fully cooled tart crust and place in the fridge for at least an hour.
  • Serve with lavender infused whipped cream or just on it's own!
