Ingredients
For the dough:
- 1–1/4 cup (160 gm) all-purpose flour
- ¾ cup (70 gm) almond flour
- ½ cup (100 gm) sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 11 tablespoons (155 gm) cold unsalted butter, cubed
- 1–1/2 tablespoons milk or water
For the filling:
- 8 ounces hulled and quartered strawberries (about 1–1/2 cups)
- 8 ounces rhubarb, trimmed and cut into 1” pieces
- ¼ cup (50 gm) sugar
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons sliced almonds
- Whipped cream, for serving if desired
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Combine the flour, almond flour, sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Use a pastry cutter or the back of two forks to cut the butter into the dry ingredients until there are small pea-sized clumps throughout and the mixture is sandy in appearance. Add the milk or water and stir together just until a dough comes together. Pat about 2/3 of the mixture into the bottom and sides of a 4-1/4” x 13-3/4” tart pan with a removable bottom (you can also use a large 9” round tart pan). Place the pan and the remaining crumbs in the fridge while you prepare the filling.
- For the filling, combine the quartered strawberries and chopped rhubarb in a bowl with the sugar, cornstarch, vanilla, and lemon zest. Stir together until combined and spread into the bottom of the tart pan. Sprinkle the remaining crumbs over the fruit filling and then top with the almonds. Bake in the preheated oven for about 45 minutes or until the crust and crumbles are golden brown and the fruit filling is bubbling. Allow to cool slightly and serve with whipped cream.
