Cannabis Bakewell Tart

Ingredients

• 225 g 7.9 oz Plain flour
• 125 g 4.4 oz Cannabutter (cold, cubed — for pastry)
• 2 tbsp 2 tbsp Icing sugar
• 1 1 Egg yolk
• 2 tbsp 2 tbsp Ice-cold water
• 100 g 3.5 oz Cherry jam
• 150 g 5.3 oz Unsalted butter (softened — for frangipane)
• 150 g 5.3 oz Caster sugar
• 3 3 Eggs
• 150 g 5.3 oz Ground almonds
• 30 g 1.1 oz Plain flour (for frangipane)
• 1 tsp 1 tsp Almond extract
• 30 g 1.1 oz Flaked almonds (to top)

Instructions

1. 1
   Make shortcrust pastry: rub cold cannabutter into flour and icing sugar until it resembles fine breadcrumbs. Add egg yolk and ice-cold water, mix until dough just comes together. Wrap in cling film and chill 30 minutes.
2. 2
   Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll pastry to 3 mm and line a 23 cm loose-bottomed tart tin. Blind bake with parchment and beans 15 minutes, then 5 minutes without until pale gold.
3. 3
   Make frangipane: beat softened unsalted butter and caster sugar until creamy. Beat in eggs one at a time. Fold in ground almonds, plain flour and almond extract.
4. 4
   Spread cherry jam over the pastry base. Spoon frangipane over the top and smooth. Scatter flaked almonds over the surface.
5. 5
   Bake 30–35 minutes until the frangipane is set and golden. Cover loosely with foil after 20 minutes if browning too quickly.
6. 6
   Cool completely before serving. Dust with icing sugar if desired.

Pro Tips

• Resting the pastry is not optional — skipping it causes shrinkage when blind baking.
• Raspberry jam is a widely accepted alternative to cherry jam.
• This is a rich tart — one slice contains a full dose. Start there and wait 90 minutes.
