Ingredients

  • 2 cups almond flour crust
  • 60 g cold butter crust
  • 1 egg crust
  • 1 pinch salt crust
  • 200 g lardons (smoked bacon cubes)
  • 4 large eggs
  • 300 ml heavy cream
  • 100 ml crème fraîche
  • 150 g Gruyère cheese grated
  • 1 pinch nutmeg, freshly grated
  • Salt and white pepper

Instructions

  • Make crust: combine almond flour and salt. Cut in cold butter until crumbly. Add egg and mix until dough forms. Press into 23cm tart tin. Refrigerate 20 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 190°C. Blind-bake crust 10 minutes with parchment and weights. Remove weights, bake 5 more minutes.
  • Fry lardons until golden but not crispy. Drain on paper towel.
  • Whisk eggs, cream, and crème fraîche together. Season generously with salt, white pepper, and nutmeg.
  • Scatter lardons and three-quarters of Gruyère over the crust.
  • Pour in custard mixture. Top with remaining Gruyère and thyme.
  • Bake 30–35 minutes until custard is just set with a slight wobble in the center. Rest 15 minutes before serving.
