Step 1/5
- 30 g flour
- 35 g almond flour
- ½ tsp sugar
- ⅛ tsp salt
- 45 g butter (cold)
- 1½ tbsp water
- plastic wrap
- bowl
In a large bowl, combine most of the flour, almond flour, a quarter of the sugar, and salt. Add the cold butter and rub it into the flour mixture with your fingertips until it resembles a coarse meal. Add cold water and mix with hands, lightly kneading the dough in the bowl until it forms a ball. Flatten the ball into a square and wrap in plastic. Chill in the refrigerator for approx. 1 hr.
Step 2/5
- ½ vanilla bean
- 55 g mascarpone cheese
- 1 tbsp honey
- ½ tsp ground cardamom
- 125 g rhubarb
- 1½ tsp sugar
- 10 g flour
- cutting board
- 2 bowls
- rubber spatula
- knife
- whisk
Scrape vanilla bean. In a small bowl, add the mascarpone, honey, vanilla bean seeds, and cardamom, and whisk until smooth. Set aside. Trim ends of rhubarb and cut into large matchsticks. In a medium bowl, combine the rhubarb, remaining sugar, and remaining flour. Set aside.
Step 3/5
- flour (for dusting)
- oven
- baking sheet
- rolling pin
- parchment paper
Preheat oven to 200°C/400°F. Remove the dough from the refrigerator and let it sit for approx. 5 min. at room temperature. On a lightly floured work surface, roll out dough to a 30-cm/12-in square. Carefully transfer the dough to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Spread mascarpone filling over the dough in an even layer, leaving a border around the edges.
Step 4/5
- ½ egg yolk
- pastry brush
- bowl
Arrange the rhubarb in a chevron pattern over the mascarpone cheese filling; cut the rhubarb as necessary to fit. Fold the edges of the dough over the rhubarb and crimp. Beat egg yolk into a bowl and brush the dough with it.
Step 5/5
- sugar (for serving)
- honey (for serving)
- pot
Sprinkle with sugar and bake at 200°C/400°F until the crust is golden brown, approx. 40 - 45 min. Heat honey in a pot until warm. Brush over rhubarb and serve immediately, or at room temperature. Enjoy!
