Ingredients
  

1 cup almond flour

1/4 cup all-purpose flour

1/4 cup confectioners' sugar

1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened

1/2 tsp vanilla extract

1/4 tsp almond extract

1/4 tsp salt

1 large egg yolk

1 cup fresh raspberries (plus extra for garnish)

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1 tbsp cornstarch

1 tbsp lemon juice

Sliced almonds (for topping)

Powdered sugar (for dusting, optional)

Instructions
 

Make the tart dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, all-purpose flour, and confectioners' sugar. Add softened butter, vanilla extract, almond extract, salt, and egg yolk. Mix until a dough forms. If the mixture is too dry, add a teaspoon of cold water as needed.

    Chill the dough: Shape the dough into a disc, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

      Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

        Roll out the dough: On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1/8 inch thick. Cut into circles that fit into a mini muffin tin. Press the circles into the muffin cups to form the tart shells. Prick the bottom with a fork.

          Blind bake the shells: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes or until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before removing from the tin.

            Prepare the raspberry filling: In a medium bowl, combine fresh raspberries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Gently toss until the raspberries are coated.

              Fill the tart shells: Spoon the raspberry filling into each tart shell, allowing the raspberries to overflow slightly.

                Bake the filled tarts: Return the filled tart shells to the oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the raspberries are slightly bubbly.

                  Garnish and serve: Remove from the oven, and allow to cool completely. Top with sliced almonds and dust with powdered sugar if desired. Serve at room temperature or chilled.
