- Heat the oven to 190°C (170°C fan) and lightly butter a 23 cm tart tin.

- Prick the base, line with baking paper, fill with baking beans, and blind bake for 12 minutes.
- Remove the paper and beans, then return the case to the oven for 5 minutes until lightly golden.
- Beat the softened butter and caster sugar until pale and creamy.
- Mix in the ground almonds, plain flour and beaten eggs until smooth.
- Spread the frangipane evenly in the tart case and level the top.
- Scatter the raspberries over the filling and sprinkle with flaked almonds.
- Bake for 28–32 minutes until the filling is set and golden.

Ingredients
- 1 sheet Sweet Shortcrust Pastry ready-rolled
- 125 g Caster Sugar
- 2 Eggs beaten
- 125 g Ground almonds
- 200 g Raspberries fresh
- 2 tbsp Flaked Almonds
- 1 tbsp Plain Flour
- 1 tbsp Apricot Jam warmed
- 125 g Unsalted butter softened
Notes
Use room-temperature butter for a smoother frangipane and even rise.
If the tart browns quickly, cover loosely with foil for the final 10 minutes.
Allow the tart to cool before slicing so the filling can set cleanly.
