Recipe's preparation

    Crust
  1. Pre heat oven to 175deg C.  Line bottom of 23cm pie dish with baking paper, grease sides with oil or butter

  2. Place almonds in tmix bowl and chop 10-15 secs speed 10 until almond meal/flour consistency

  3. Add salt and turbo for 3 bursts until combined

  4. Add coconut oil and egg and turbo until dough forms (approx 5 secs) warning: it will be reasonably sticky

  5. Transfer dough to centre of pie tin, press dough evenly over base and up sides of tin.

  6. Bake in oven for 15-20 mins until firm and golden.  Remove and let cool

  7. Lemon Citrus Filling
  8. In bowl add eggs, honey & coconut oil (melted).  Mix speed 4, 10 secs (or until smooth)

  9. Add lemon juice heat 5 mins/80deg/speed 4 until starts to thicken.  Note: this may take 30 secs longer but watch closely as it will thicken very quickly.

  10. Pour onto cooled pastry base.  Allow to cool.  Serve with icing sugar sprinkled over the top and lashings of whipped cream!

Tip

Serve without whipped cream it it becomes dairy free too!

To blanch your own almonds, place them in a bowl and pour boiling water over and leave to sit for 5 mins.  Then just rub together in your hands and the skins will slip off.

    Delicious! Thickened at 4 1/2 minutes.i didn't have enough almonds for base, so topped up with 60 grams cashews. Yum 😊

    Does it matter if I don't use blanched almonds? Could I just use normal almonds?

    It's a delicious dessert and I agree that making double the lemon filling is making the tart perfect. I'll definitely make it again and again

    This was delicious! I took advice from comments and doubled the lemon filling. My base was very crumbly though, so not sure what I did wrong. Any ideas?

    Hi, I have just made this for my guests this evening. I had to substitute cashews for the base,as i didnt have almonds, so am hoping this will be ok. It's all looking very nice and I also doubled the lemon mixture as I didn't have enough filling, even though I actually put it into a small cheesecake tin. Thanks for the recipe, I cant wait to hear some comments from my guests.

    Will definitely be a go to recipe for any place I am taking a dessert. 

    The almond meal pastry was the easiest and tastiest I have ever made. Not overly sticky and hard to work with like other gluten free pastries I have tried to make. 

    No one could believe it was gluten and dairy free and so delicious. 

    next next time I will increase the lemon filling as I didn't quite have enough to fill my pastry shell as thick as I would have liked. 

    Delicious!
