Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a food processor, combine the all-purpose flour and almonds. Pulse until the almonds are finely ground and well mixed with the flour.
- Add the unsalted butter to the mixture. Continue to pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Press the crust mixture evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom.
- Bake the crust in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes or until it turns a light golden brown. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely before adding the filling.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the passion fruit, lemon zest, lemon juice, and sugar. Mix well until the sugar is completely dissolved.
- Add the egg yolk and light sour cream to the mixture, whisking to combine until the filling is smooth and creamy.
- Pour the filling into the cooled crust, spreading it evenly.
- Bake the tart in the oven (still at 350°F / 175°C) for an additional 25-30 minutes, or until the filling is set and slightly firm to the touch.
- Let the tart cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the filling to set completely.
- Once chilled, remove the tart from the pan, slice, and serve.
Tips:
- Use fresh passion fruit pulp for the best flavor. If fresh passion fruits are not available, you can use frozen or canned passion fruit pulp.
- When zesting lemons, make sure to avoid the white pith, as it can add bitterness to your tart.
- Chill the tart crust in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before baking to prevent it from shrinking.
- Use a food processor to finely grind the almonds and flour together for a smooth, cohesive crust.
- Allow the tart to cool completely before serving, to let the filling set and make slicing easier.
- For an extra touch, garnish the tart with fresh passion fruit seeds or a dollop of whipped cream.
This passionfruit tart is a unique and delicious dessert that brings together the vibrant flavors of passion fruit and lemon in a creamy, satisfying filling. With a bit of time and patience, you can create a tart that not only looks stunning but also tastes phenomenal.
