A recipe where almond powder is essential to the dough, and as is my habit, I added my personal touch with bitter almond extract. The figs are enhanced thanks to this almond preparation.

Prep Time20 minsCook Time50 minsTotal Time1 hr 10 mins
Ingredients
 12 figs
 150 organic sugar
 3 eggs
 180 Almond powder
 100 Flour
 ½ Salt
 1 vanilla extract
 1 bitter almond extract
 100 Greek yogurt
Directions
1

Preheat the oven to 180°C.

2

In the bowl of your mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, whisk the sugar and butter until the mixture turns light in color. If you do not have a mixer, whisk with an electric whisk or by hand.

3

Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add the vanilla extract and the bitter almond extract.

4

In a bowl, mix the flour, almond powder, salt, and anise. Gradually add this mixture to the previous one. When the batter is well combined, add the yogurt.

5

Grease and flour a 27 cm diameter tart pan and pour the dough into it. Rinse the figs, dry them, and then cut them into quarters. Arrange them in a rosace pattern on the dough.

6

Bake for 15 minutes, then reduce to 170°C and continue cooking for 30 to 40 minutes, depending on the thickness of the dough. If necessary, cover during cooking. Let cool.

7

To finish, sprinkle a little powdered sugar before serving. Enjoy.
