Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup sliced almonds, toasted
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 6 tablespoons cold butter
  • 1 tablespoon grated orange zest
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons cold water
  • FILLING:
  • 3 large eggs
  • 3 large egg yolks
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 3/4 cup frozen passion fruit juice concentrate, thawed
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 6 tablespoons butter, cubed
  • Confectioners' sugar

Directions

  1. Place the flour, almonds, sugar, butter, orange zest and salt in a food processor. Cover and pulse until mixture forms a soft dough. If necessary, gradually add water, 1 tablespoon at a time until dough holds together.
  2. Press onto the bottom and up the side of a well-greased 9-in. fluted tart pan with a removable bottom. Bake at 400° for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on a wire rack. Reduce heat to 325°.
  3. In a small heavy saucepan over medium heat, whisk the eggs, egg yolks, sugar, passion fruit juice and salt until blended. Add butter; cook, whisking constantly, until mixture is thickened. Pour into crust.
  4. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until set. Cool on a wire rack. If desired, sprinkle with confectioners sugar before serving. Refrigerate leftovers.
