Almond, Tangelo And Blueberry Tarts
Delicately flavoured almond tarts with just a hint of citrus. A beautiful light tart.
This Blueberry Almond Frangipane is the kind of effortless bake that looks impressive but couldn’t be easier. There’s no pastry to roll, no blind baking, and absolutely no fuss, just a simple gluten free almond batter that comes together in minutes and bakes into a soft, buttery frangipane studded with juicy blueberries.
It’s naturally gluten free thanks to almond meal, beautifully moist, and rich without being heavy. Serve it warm with a dollop of cream or yoghurt for an easy dessert, or enjoy a slice with coffee for a not-too-sweet afternoon treat. Simple, rustic, and utterly delicious.
