  • Total Time: 1 hour (including cooling)
  • Yield: 6 tartlets

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup pistachio paste or butter
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 175°C (350°F).
  2. In a mixing bowl, beat together softened butter, sugar, and pistachio paste until creamy.
  3. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  4. Gently fold in the flour until just combined.
  5. Pour the mixture into tartlet pans or pre-baked tart shells.
  6. Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden and center is set but slightly soft.
  7. Cool in the pan for 10–15 minutes, then carefully remove. Let cool completely on a wire rack.

Notes

  • Add lemon zest for a bright, citrusy touch.
  • Top with chopped pistachios, white/dark chocolate drizzle, or fresh berries.
  • Spread a thin layer of raspberry or strawberry jam under the filling for fruity contrast.
  • Using pistachio flour adds texture but may require adjusting flour quantity.
  • Store in the fridge for 2–3 days in an airtight container.
