Masa de Tarta de Harina de Almendra

Ingredientes

• 2 cups almond flour (224g or hazelnut flour or a blend of both)
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt (or 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt)
• 5 tablespoons butter (melted)

Preparación

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 350℉.

2. 2

   In a medium bowl, mix together the almond flour, sugar, and salt using a fork. Pour in the melted butter and stir until everything is well combined. Set aside about 1/3 of the mixture and press the remaining 2/3 evenly along the edges and up the sides of a tart pan, leaving the bottom uncovered. Take the reserved portion and press it into the bottom of the pan, ensuring an even layer. Use the bottom of a measuring cup or glass to firmly press the crust into place, smoothing out any uneven spots. It's worth spending extra time here to create a solid crust that won't crumble when sliced. Finally, pierce the base all over with a fork. (recipe note #1)

   Carefully set the tart pan on a rimmed baking sheet to avoid lifting the removable bottom accidentally. For a no-bake filling, bake the crust for 18 to 22 minutes, until it turns lightly golden and smells toasty. If using a baked filling, bake for 15 minutes. Once done, remove from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack (completely for no-bake fillings). Add your filling of choice.
