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.

    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

    Submitted by Mingasmokey on 18. January 2015 - 13:52.

    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

    Submitted by NicoleDianna on 29. July 2014 - 09:37.

    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!
