To prepare the frangipane tart, start with the shortcrust pastry: in a bowl, briefly work the cold butter into cubes with the granulated sugar using the leaf whisk of the planetary mixer or a mixer with metal blades. Add egg, pinch of salt, lemon zest and work on low speed.


Stir in the flour and baking powder. Knead just enough to obtain a homogeneous dough free from butter streaks. Wrap it in parchment paper and place it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.


In the meantime, prepare the frangipane cream: in a bowl, whip the butter with the granulated sugar in an electric mixer. Then add the eggs and mix quickly.


Then add the sifted 00 flour and the almond flour. Mix everything.


Roll out the shortcrust pastry with a rolling pin to a thickness of 5 mm and place it inside a non-stick tart mold with a diameter of 22 cm. Trim the edges and prick the bottom with the tines of a fork. Fill the shortcrust pastry shell with the prepared frangipane cream and level.


Add the sliced almonds and bake in a preheated oven at 170 degrees for about 40-45 minutes until golden brown. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely before serving.
