Ingredients
- 2 pâte feuilletée
- 175 g almond powder
- 100 g sugar
- 2 eggs
- 75 g butter
- 45 ml amaretto
- 1 egg yolk
Steps
-
Put one of the pâte feuilletée in a cake tin, prick the dough with a fork.
-
In a bowl, mix the almond powder, the sugar, the eggs and the melted butter. Add the amaretto.
-
If you want a lighter result that doesn’t taste like a [pithiviers feuilleté] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pithivier), add at least 100 g of crème pâtissière to make the “real” frangipane.
-
Pour the mix into the cake tin and hide the fève.
-
Put the second pâte feuilletée on top, sealing the edges well.
-
Make patterns on the top and brush with egg yolk.
-
Bake for 30 minutes at 200°C. Check the cooking regularly!
