So to soften the awful mood, we’ve got a cracking Bakewell Tart recipe you can get stuck into – just like the one in last night’s signature challenge, but with a lot more instructions.Īlternatively, you could perhaps buy your pastry and your frangipane/jam. I will link it in my recipe, where you could buy it or at least know what the jar looks like.And then there's the heart-breaking news that Bake Off is basically falling to pieces (just like a flaky pastry) with Mel, Sue and Mary Berry announcing that they all will be quitting the show after this series and will NOT be moving with the show over on Channel 4 – leaving Paul Hollywood as the last man standing.

Add the almond flour, egg, salt and almond extract and mix until incorporated. Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, cream together the butter and sugar until pale and fluffy, about 5 minutes.Spread the jam across the slightly cooled crust.Cool on a rack for several minutes while preparing filling. ![]() Return to oven for 5 minutes until crust appears dry. Bake 15 minutes, remove weights or beans, then the parchment. Line the bottom and sides of the tart shell with parchment paper (or foil would work) and cover with pie weights or dried beans (see Notes).
