Preparation and cooking times
Ready in 40 mins
- Heat the oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Beat the butter with the sugar and lemon zest until pale and fluffy, then slowly beat in the eggs, one by one. Beat in the lemon juice, and fold in the ground almonds. The mixture will look separated, however it will come back together once baked.
- Spoon into a 20cm buttered and paper base-lined tart tin, sprinkle over the pine nuts and level. Bake the tart on the middle shelf for 25-35 minutes or so until lightly coloured on top and just set. Serve while still warm, with a good dollop of mascarpone.
