Oooh, yum. Please stop - I am "choosing" a lower body weight this month!
Almonds, eggs, and sugar in a tarta. Not terrible on a low carbI finished my low carb diet in 3 1/2 hours last month. It went so well that I might try again this month.
Perfecto! Even the dish looks just like one you might see in Spain under such a torta. Don’t worry about carbs. Far more important to know that if this torta is made to the original recipe it is gluten free.
Almond flour provides virtually no almond flavor, it is pretty neutral. If you leave out the almond extract, there will be no almond flavor at all. The taste will be more lemony, in a bright, refreshing way, especially if you replace the almond extract with lemon extract.Nobody likes almonds in our house. A full tarte is a bit much for one. I'll have to wait..
OMG you mean I bypassed all that tarta de Santiago when I was avoiding wheat??!!
I might not have lost all that weight
I'm afraid to go back and let myself loose
Yes, @Nanc, it is perfect for those who are gluten intolerant or don't eat wheat! I've even made one using xylitol instead of sugar - so no carb (but xylitol can have a laxative effect, so only eat a small slice).
I like to grind some whole almonds myself, and add that to the almond meal. It gives a bit more texture.
It's ok to grind almonds or it must be real flour?
