GRANADILLA FRANGIPANE TART

“Frangipane tarts always remind me of my dad. Growing up, we lived in quite a healthy home. My mom would limit the ‘junk’ foods we were exposed to and we were offered alternatives to sweets, such as grapes, raisins, dark chocolate, and my dad’s all-time favorite, marzipan. That’s what frangipane tarts spark in my memory. The smell and texture of the marzipan are mimicked by the baked almond in this tart. Combining it with my little girl’s favorite fruit, granadilla, creates a feeling of home and love.” @brik_cafe
