1
Do this step the day before.
-
2
Make the cherry compote.
-
3
Make the tart dough and let chill overnight.
-
4
Roll the chilled dough to 3 mm thickness and line the tart pan with the dough.
-
5
For the dough, please refer to
-
6
To prevent the crust from expanding, poke many holes in the bottom with a fork.
-
7
Chill in the refrigerator for an hour to prevent shrinkage.
-
8
(Crumble dough) Put the cold butter and other ingredients in a bowl.
-
9
Use your hand to crumble up the butter while coating it in the dry ingredients.
-
10
When it is all crumbly, put in the refrigerator to chill until ready to use.
-
11
Line the chilled tart crust with kitchen parchment paper and fill with pie weights.
-
12
Bake in an oven preheated to 180C for 12 minutes.
-
13
Take it out of the oven, remove the weights, and bake for an additional 5 minutes until the bottom is baked.
-
14
Let cool in the tart pan.
-
15
It won't be cooked through, as it will be baked again later.
-
16
If it happens to expand, use the back of a spoon to smooth it down while it's still hot.
-
17
(Almond cream) Bring the butter to room temperature.
-
18
Put the butter in a bowl and sift the powdered sugar into the bowl.
-
19
Mix with a whisk until smooth.
-
20
Add the well-beaten egg in five portions, mixing well with each addition.
-
21
Please bring the egg to room temperature before using.
-
22
If you use a cold egg, it will separate.
-
23
If it happens to separate, add a bit of almond flour and mix.
-
24
Next, add the kirsch and mix well.
-
25
Sift the almond flour into the bowl and mix.
-
26
Then, sift the cake flour into the batter and mix.
-
27
It's ready when evenly combined.
-
28
If there's air in it, it will cause it to expand while baking, so try your best not to whip it.
-
29
Once the tart crust has completely cooled, fill with half of Step 13 and smooth with a rubber spatula.
-
30
Carefully press a generous portion of the well-dried cherries slightly into the batter.
-
31
Top the cherries with the remaining almond cream and smooth with a rubber spatula.
-
32
Sprinkle the top of the tart with the chilled crumbles.
-
33
Bake in an oven preheated to 180C for 40 minutes.
-
34
Once baked, let cool in the tart pan.
-
35
Once completely cooled, remove from the pan.
-
36
Once cooled, use a tea strainer to dust powdered sugar over the top.
-
37
I had some leftover cherries, so I used a few to top the tart.
-
38
It's even more delicious if you let it sit for at least half a day before eating.
-
39
It's also delicious when chilled in the refrigerator.
