Frangipane

 Frangipane:

Posting this so I can find it again! Frangipane is a handy recipe for the filling of any fruit tart, particularly where you do not have enough fruit for fruit only. I make a rectangle tart with frangipane and pears sliced on top. Delish.

5 Tablespoons unsalted butter

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1 egg

1 teaspoon vanilla

1 cup almond flour (measured then sifted)

Cream, the butter and sugar together until light and creamy. At the egg and vanilla and mix well. Sift the almond flour into the mixture and whip for another 30 to 60 seconds.
