1

For the pastry, preheat the oven to 180C and lightly dust a work surface with flour.

With a loose-bottomed tart tin (approximately 24cm in diameter) gently drape this over your rolling pin and then unroll into the tin.

Place in the oven for 10 minutes or until the base and sides are just beginning to turn golden.

9

For the frangipane filling, cream the butter and sugar together until pale and fluffy and add the almond meal, flour, vanilla and eggs. Mix until smooth.

10

Now, spoon the frangipane mix across the base of your tart and smooth out.
