Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter 230g, 2 sticks, room temperature
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon almond extract optional
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 310g
- 1 cup almonds 115g, finely ground, sliced or slivered
- 2 1/2 teaspoons rosemary optional, chopped, fresh
- 1 blueberry lemon curd 4 cups, batch
- 1/4 cup blueberries for garnish, fresh
- 1/4 cup almond for garnish, chopped, toasted
- mint for garnish, a few sprigs
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and set rack in middle.
- To make the crust: Beat together the butter, sugar, salt, and extracts on medium speed until smooth and whipped, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the flour and ground almonds and rosemary and beat on low until mixed and crumbs cling together when squeezed, 1 to 2 minutes. Divide the dough into 6 balls (140g each) and press each ball into the bottom and up the sides of 6 (5-inch) removable bottom tart pans, pressing and smoothing out the dough with your fingers to form an even crust in each tart shell.; prick the bottoms all over with a fork.
- Freeze crusts for 15 minutes, then place on a baking sheet and bake until they're light golden brown in the middle and slightly darker on the edges, 25 to 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely before removing the sides of the pans and adding the filling.
- Fill each cooled shell with blueberry-lemon curd and chill for at least an hour, if curd is not pre-chilled. Garnish each with a few blueberries, chopped almonds and a mint sprig or two.
