    Almond’s heady aroma and rich flavor complement a sweet-tart rhubarb filling. The almond slices add pleasant crunch to each bite.

    Ingredients

    • Crust:
    • 1 3/4 Cups All Purpose Flour
    • 1 Tbsp. Powdered Sugar
    • 1/4 Tsp. Salt
    • 1/2 Cup Plus 2 Tbsp. Unsalted Butter, Chilled & Cubed
    • 1 Large Egg, Beaten
    • Filling:
    • 1 1/4 Cups Fresh Rhubarb, Chopped
    • 2/3 Cup Plus 1 Tbsp. Powdered Sugar, Divided
    • 2 Tsp. All Purpose Flour
    • 1/2 Cup Heavy Whipping Cream
    • 1 Large Egg
    • 1/8 Tsp. Almond Extract
    • 1/4 Cup Almond, Sliced

    Directions

    1. Place 1 3/4 cups flour, 1 tablespoon powdered sugar and salt in food processor; pulse to combine. Add butter; pulse until mixture resembles coarse crumbs with some pea-sized pieces. Add beaten egg; pulse until dough just begins to form. Shape into flat round; cover and refrigerate 30 minutes. (Dough also can be made by hand using pastry blender.)
    2. Meanwhile, heat oven to 425°F. On lightly floured surface, roll dough slightly thicker than 1/8 inch. Cut into 6 (5-inch) circles, rerolling scraps as needed. Line 6 (4-inch) tart pans with dough; line dough with foil. Place on baking sheet; bake 10 minutes or until crust is dry and set (crust will not be brown). Remove foil; cool on wire rack.
    3. Place rhubarb, 2/3 cup of the powdered sugar and 2 teaspoons flour in medium bowl; stir until sugar and flour completely coat rhubarb. Divide rhubarb mixture evenly among partially baked crusts, spreading with back of spoon to cover bottom. Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until edges of crust begin to brown. Remove from oven. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F.
    4. Meanwhile, in same medium bowl, whisk together cream, 1 egg and almond extract. Divide cream mixture evenly among tarts; sprinkle evenly with almonds. Bake at 350°F. for 25 to 30 minutes or until filling is set and crusts are puffed and lightly browned. Cool on wire rack; remove from pans. Sprinkle with remaining 1 tablespoon powdered sugar.
