Preparation

Get these tasks done before you start cooking.

Making the Almond Crust

1
Combine dry ingredients
Combine almond flour, all-purpose flour, sugar, and salt in a bowl.
2
Cut in butter
Cut in the chilled butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
3
Form and chill dough
Add the egg yolk and mix until dough forms. Wrap and chill for 30 minutes.
Tip: Chill the almond crust dough before rolling to prevent sticking and maintain shape.

Preparing the Rhubarb Filling

1
Combine ingredients
Combine rhubarb, sugar, cornstarch, and vanilla extract in a saucepan.
2
Cook filling
Cook over medium heat until the mixture thickens, about 10 minutes.
3
Cool filling
Let cool before assembling.
Tip: Ensure the rhubarb filling is cool before adding to the crust to prevent sogginess. Use a removable-bottom tart pan for easy serving.
