This raspberry frangipane tart is one of the most wonderful, classic French desserts, perfect for a dinner party or any special occasion. This raspberry tart is an incredible depth of flavor. The frangipane filling and the delicate notes of raspberries contribute a beautiful balance.

Note about the Ingredients
- Check my Sweet Pastry Recipe for all the details for the tart shell.
- The almond filling is made with butter, sugar, eggs, and ground almonds (Use good quality ground almonds for best results)
- Raspberry Filling: check my raspberry filling recipe for all the details. You can use fresh or frozen raspberries to prepare the raspberry filling.
- If you can, choose fresh raspberries for decoration. Frozen berries tend to lose their texture.
- Whipped cream: heavy cream (full fat), mascarpone cheese (full fat), powdered sugar, and vanilla extract.

Equipment
- Stand mixer with the paddle attachment but not compulsory. It just makes things easier to make the sweet pastry.
- Pie weights
- Electric mixer for the almond filling and whipped cream.
- Tart ring: 5 x 4in (10cm) or 1 x 8in (20cm). I use a perforated ring, but feel free to use a fluted tart pan. Prefer a loose base tart tin if you be easier to remove.
OPTIONAL: Perforated silicone sheet and a perforated aluminum sheet pan. The tart shell will be perfectly baked without bubbling because the steam can escape. Otherwise, use a baking sheet and parchment paper.
How to make the Raspberry Tart
This raspberry frangipane tart looks impressive, but it’s not difficult to make and looks beautiful with simple decoration.
I like to make these raspberry tartlets over 2 days. It helps to keep things easy.
Day 1:
Pastry shell: I prepare the dough and line the tart rings, then wrap it with cling film and let them chill overnight.
Raspberry Filling: You can make it a few days in advance. It stores well in the fridge for up to 1 week.
Day 2:
Pre-Bake, almond filling, bake, whipped cream, and assembly.
Check my video above for the assembly.



FAQ
Can you freeze the raspberry frangipane tart?
Unfortunately, I won’t recommend freezing the tart once it is finished.
Can I make ahead of time this raspberry pie?
- I prepare this raspberry tart recipe over 2 days. Check the section just above if you haven’t read it.
- The dough for the tart shell can be frozen when it’s raw; check the sweet pastry recipe for details. Or you can prepare the dough 1 or 2 days before and let it chill overnight.
- The raspberry filling can be made a few days before.
How to store it?
This raspberry almond tart is best when serving the day, it’s made. Any leftovers: under a cake dome or in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2-3 days. After one day, the fresh raspberries may slightly dye the whipped cream due to their bright natural color.
Can I use a different type of fruit?
Yes! Any berries, like blackberries, blueberries, or strawberries, would be delicious.
Can I use frozen raspberries instead of fresh ones?
You can use frozen raspberries for the raspberry filling, but I recommend fresh berries for the top, as frozen berries tend to lose their texture.
