Tarte de Amêndoa, or Almond Tart, is a classic Portuguese dessert featuring a sweet almond filling in a flaky pastry crust.

Ingredients - Serves 8

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a tart pan with the pastry dough.
In a saucepan, combine the ground almonds, sugar, and butter. Cook over medium heat until the sugar has melted and the mixture is smooth.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let it cool slightly. Then, beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the almond extract.
Pour the almond mixture into the prepared tart shell.
Bake for 30 minutes, or until the tart is golden and set.
Let the tart cool before slicing and serving.
