Dziriat Recipe - Authentic Algerian Almond Tarts

Ingredients

Servings:
4
  • 2 cups almond flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup butter (softened)
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 cup blanched almonds (for decoration)
  • 1 cup powdered sugar (for dusting)

Instructions

6 steps

  1. Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a tart pan.

    Ensure the oven is fully preheated for even baking.
  2. Prepare the Dough

    In a mixing bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, then mix in vanilla extract.

    Use room temperature butter for better mixing.
  3. Combine Dry Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, mix almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually incorporate this into the wet mixture.

    Sift almond flour to remove lumps.
  4. Fill the Tart Pan

    Pour the batter into the prepared tart pan, smoothing the top with a spatula. Place blanched almonds on top for decoration.

    Leave some space at the top as the tarts will rise.
  5. Bake the Tarts

    Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown. A toothpick inserted should come out clean.

    Check for doneness a few minutes before the timer goes off.
  6. Cool and Serve

    Allow the tarts to cool completely. Dust with powdered sugar before serving.

    Serve with tea for a traditional touch.
