- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon almond extract
For the Rhubarb Topping:
- 4-5 stalks fresh rhubarb, trimmed and cut into desired shapes

Instructions
- Prepare the Pastry Crust:
- In a food processor, combine flour, powdered sugar, and salt.
- Add cold, cubed butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Add egg yolk and cold water; pulse until the dough comes together.
- Turn the dough onto a floured surface, shape into a disk, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- Blind Bake the Crust:
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Roll out the chilled dough and fit it into a tart pan.
- Line with parchment paper and fill with pie weights or dried beans.
- Bake for 15 minutes, remove weights and parchment, and bake for an additional 5 minutes until lightly golden.
- Let cool.
- Prepare the Frangipane Filling:
- In a bowl, cream together softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Mix in almond flour, vanilla extract, and almond extract until smooth.
- Assemble the Tart:
- Spread the frangipane filling evenly into the cooled tart shell.
- Arrange the rhubarb pieces on top in a decorative pattern.
- Sprinkle with granulated sugar if desired.
- Bake the Tart:
- Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 40-45 minutes, or until the frangipane is set and golden.
- Allow the tart to cool before slicing and serving.
Tips for Success
- Chill the Dough: Ensures a flaky crust.
- Uniform Rhubarb Pieces: For even baking and a polished look.
- Check for Doneness: The frangipane should be set and lightly golden.
