Instructions

1. Soften the butter

   Remove the butter from the refrigerator 10 minutes before starting so it becomes softened.

   Time: PT10M

2. Cream the butter and sugar

   In a bowl, mix the softened butter with the granulated sugar until a smooth, airy consistency is achieved.

   Time: PT5M

3. Incorporate the eggs

   Add the eggs one at a time, beating well between each addition to prevent the mixture from separating.

   Time: PT5M

4. Add the powders and aromatics

   Stir in the almond meal, hazelnut meal, a pinch of salt and a drop of vanilla extract. Mix until a homogeneous batter is obtained.

   Time: PT5M

5. Prepare the sweet crust

   In another bowl, combine the flour, powdered sugar, cold diced butter and the egg yolk until a sandy dough forms. Shape into a ball, wrap in cling film and refrigerate for 15 minutes.

   Time: PT15M

6. Blind bake the crust

   Preheat the oven to 150 °C. Roll out the dough, place it in the tart pan, prick the base, cover with parchment paper and add baking weights. Bake for 30 minutes.

   Time: PT30M

   Temperature: 150°C

7. Cool the crust

   Remove the weights and paper, then let the crust cool on a rack for 10 minutes.

   Time: PT10M

8. Prepare the raspberries

   Wash the raspberries, reserve half raw for decoration and set aside the other half for cooking.

   Time: PT5M

9. Final bake of the tart

   Pour the almond cream into the cooled crust, arrange the reserved raspberries on top, then bake at 180 °C for 20 minutes.

   Time: PT20M

   Temperature: 180°C

10. Let cool

    Remove the tart from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes on the rack before handling.

11. Prepare the soaking syrup

    In a small saucepan, bring the brown sugar, water and rum (if using) to a boil for 3‑4 minutes until fully dissolved. Let cool slightly.

    Time: PT5M

12. Finishing and decoration

    Brush the still‑warm tart with the syrup using a pastry brush, arrange the raw raspberries in a rosette, then lightly dust with powdered sugar.

    Time: PT5M
