How to make almond tart with peaches step by step

Step 1 - prepare the shortcrust pastry

• Quickly knead the dough from the given ingredients - add a little cold water if the dough doesn't want to combine into a uniform mass.
  375 g wheat flour - all-purpose, 30 g sugar, 170 g butter, 1 egg, a little cold water
  
• Briefly knead the dough on the counter and divide into two portions - approximately 2/3 and 1/3 in size.
  

Step 2 - prepare the pan

• Grease the tart pan with butter and sprinkle with flour or breadcrumbs.
• Roll out the larger portion of dough thinly to a size slightly larger than the tart pan.
  
• Carefully transfer the dough to the pan and thoroughly line the bottom and sides of the pan with it.
  
• Trim the excess dough with a sharp knife and add the trimmings to the reserved piece of dough.
• Place the pan with the dough in the refrigerator to chill - for about an hour.

Step 3 - prepare the almond cream

• Beat together butter and powdered sugar for a few minutes - until the mixture becomes fluffy and light in color.
  110 g butter, 100 g powdered sugar
  
• Add one egg at a time and half of the flour to the butter mixture - mix briefly on low speed of the mixer - just until combined.
  2 eggs , 75 g wheat flour
  
• Add the ground almonds and mix briefly.
  100 g almonds

Step 4 - prepare the tart

• Spread the almond cream over the chilled dough and smooth the surface.
  
• Wash the peaches and slice them.
  approx 400 g peaches
• Arrange the fruit tightly on the almond cream.
  

Step 5 - prepare the dough lattice

• Roll out the reserved dough thinly and cut into strips.
  
• Arrange them into a decorative lattice on top of the tart.
  
• Carefully seal the strips with the dough and trim the excess dough with a sharp knife.
• If you wish, you can lightly knead these pieces, roll them out, and cut out small cookies with cutters, which can also be placed on top of the cake, or baked separately.
• You can additionally brush the top of the dough with an egg beaten with a little milk.

Step 6 - bake the tart

• Place the tart pan in an oven preheated to 180 degrees Celsius (top/bottom heat mode) and bake for about 50 minutes.
• After baking, let the cake cool, and before serving, sprinkle with a little powdered sugar.
