Almond Frangipane
Marked for Revision Time: 10 min Yields: tart worth (or 6 croissants) Cost: $5.30 per tart worth Difficulty: 2/10
From Dad, who got it from an old recipe for Twelfth Night Frangipane Cake, which uses this as a filling and involves hiding 2 coins inside the tart. Quite quick to make, works great in croissants or as filling for a tart flan. The ground almonds don’t really need to be sifted.
