Daring Bakers June Challenge - Bakewell Tart..er..Pudding

The June Daring Bakers' challenge was hosted by Jasmine of Confessions of a Cardamom Addict and Annemarie of Ambrosia and Nectar. They chose a Traditional (UK) Bakewell Tart... er... pudding that was inspired by a rich baking history dating back to the 1800's in England.

Finally a challenge that allowed me to bring out my as-yet-unused tart pan. The Bakewell Tart consists of three parts - a sweet pastry, jam and frangipane, a lovely almond filling. I opted to do a classic flavour combination of almond paired with raspberry jam and ended up with, in my opinion, a very authentic tasting tart.

The crust was solid and held everything together. The jam was seedless store-bought and provided a splash of sweetness and the frangipane was light in texture and the star of the tart. It cut beautifully and tasted even better cold the next day.

I really enjoyed this challenge. The tart was easy to prepare, looks impressive and was extremely edible. I will make it a point to work with frangipane again - I loved it.

Oh yea, I was excited to use the tart pan I don't get to use very often too!

Hope mine turns out as well as yours did!

Well done, well done! I agree on the fragipane - I didn't even know what it was before this challenge. The husband ate most of the leftover batter, which was a sure sign that the tart was going to be pretty great. I agree on the leftover/cold point too - I've been eating the little tartlettes I made out of the fridge in the morning. This challenge is going to gain me another five pounds! Cheers.
