Steps:

  • Place all the pastry ingredients in a food processor. Process until a rough dough forms, if there are still a lot of dry crumbs left, add a little bit of water (1tbsp at a time) Tip your dough onto a floured surface, roll out to fit the tart tin (22x32cm loose bottomed tart tin). Prick with a fork. Refrigerate 20 minutes. Bake the pastry for 20 minutes in 180c fan forced oven.
  • Use an electric mixer to beat together all the frangipane ingredients. Leave aside.
  • When pastry is ready, spoon on the frangipane filling and spread evenly. Arrange the rhubarb pieces on top. Bake 30-35 minutes, until golden brown.
  • Leave to rest for at least an hour before slicing.
