What Started it all:
Mangoes, Almond Extract, Yellow Pie Dough, Toppings,
This delightful Mango Almond Tart combines the tropical sweetness of mangoes with the subtle nuttiness of almond extract, all nestled in a buttery yellow pie dough. Perfect for a refreshing dessert that will impress your guests!
Ingredients
- 2 ripe mangoes, peeled and diced
- 1 teaspoon almond extract
- 1 pre-made yellow pie dough (enough for a 9-inch tart)
- Whipped cream or coconut cream
- Sliced almonds
- Fresh mint leaves (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Roll out the yellow pie dough and fit it into a 9-inch tart pan. Press the dough into the edges and trim any excess. Prick the bottom with a fork to prevent bubbling.
- Place a piece of parchment paper over the crust and fill it with pie weights or dried beans. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Remove the weights and parchment and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes until lightly golden. Allow to cool.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the diced mangoes and almond extract. Gently toss to coat the mangoes evenly.
- Once the crust has cooled, fill it with the mango mixture, spreading it evenly across the tart.
- Top the tart with whipped cream or coconut cream, sprinkle with sliced almonds, and garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired.
- Refrigerate the tart for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld. Slice and enjoy!
