Elaboració

Pas a pas

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Lightly grease a 24-26 cm round baking dish or springform pan.

    Uns 5 min

  2. 2

    In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, almond flour, granulated sugar, lemon zest, and salt. Mix well to ensure all dry ingredients are evenly distributed.

    Uns 2 min

  3. 3

    Add the cold, cubed unsalted butter to the dry ingredients. Using your fingertips or a pastry blender, work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.

    Uns 5 min

    Nota de cuina: Avoid overworking the dough to keep the texture crumbly.

  4. 4

    Stir in the egg yolk until just combined. The mixture should still be very crumbly; do not form a solid dough.

    Uns 1 min

  5. 5

    Pour the crumbly mixture into the prepared baking dish. Gently press it down lightly and evenly with your hands, leaving it somewhat loose and rustic.

    Uns 1 min

    Nota de cuina: Do not compact the mixture too much; the goal is a crumbly texture.

  6. 6

    Scatter the whole almonds over the top of the cake mixture.

    Uns 1 min

  7. 7

    Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the torta is golden brown and firm to the touch.

    Uns 35 min

    Nota de cuina: Keep an eye on the edges to prevent burning.

  8. 8

    Remove the torta from the oven and let it cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. This is crucial for it to set and become properly crumbly.

    Uns 1 h

    Nota de cuina: The torta will be very fragile when warm.

  9. 9

    Once cooled, break the torta into irregular pieces by hand or with a knife. Serve at room temperature.
