Ingredients
  

1 cup almond flour

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1/4 cup powdered sugar

1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened

1 large egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup raspberry jam (or homemade raspberry compote)

1/4 cup slivered almonds

Fresh raspberries (for garnish)

Powdered sugar (for dusting)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Tartlet Shells:

    - In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, all-purpose flour, and powdered sugar. Mix well.

      - Add the softened butter, egg, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Blend until a soft dough forms.

        Chill the Dough:

          - Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 30 minutes. This will make it easier to roll out.

            Preheat the Oven:

              - Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

                Roll Out the Dough:

                  - On a lightly floured surface, roll the chilled dough to about 1/8 inch thick. Cut out circles that are slightly larger than your mini tartlet pans.

                    Form the Tartlet Shells:

                      - Gently press the dough circles into the greased mini tartlet pans. Trim any excess dough from the edges. Use a fork to poke holes in the bottom of each shell to prevent bubbling.

                        Bake the Shells:

                          - Place the tartlet pans on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let them cool completely.

                            Fill with Raspberry Jam:

                              - Once the tartlet shells are cool, spoon about a tablespoon of raspberry jam into each shell, spreading it evenly.

                                Add Almonds:

                                  - Sprinkle slivered almonds evenly over the top of the jam in each tartlet.

                                    Final Bake:

                                      - Return the filled tartlets to the oven and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes, until the almonds are lightly toasted.

                                        Cool and Garnish:

                                          - Once baked, remove from the oven and let cool. Before serving, garnish with fresh raspberries and a light dusting of powdered sugar.
