INGREDIENTS:
Crust:
1 ½ cups of almond flour
3 ounces of butter
¼ cup of Sukrin Monk Fruit
Marzipan Filling:
1 cup of almond flour
½ cup of Sukrin Icing
2 tablespoons of water
½ teaspoon of almond extract
3 ounces of Sukrin Gold
3.5 ounces of butter
2 eggs
1 tablespoon of tapioca starch
Tosca Topping:
2 ounces of butter
6 tablespoons of sugar-free caramel syrup
2 ounces of whole almonds, roughly chopped
2 ounces of pecans, roughly chopped
METHOD:
Make your marzipan the day before by mixing all of the ingredients in a large mixing bowl and then kneading to form a dough.
Roll into a log using clingwrap and refrigerate overnight.
Pre-heat oven to 350° F, fan forced.
To make the crust, grease and line a tart pan.
Melt the butter and then add it to the dry ingredients in a mixing bowl and stir until combined.
Press in a thin layer around the base and sides of your tart pan.
Bake for 12 minutes.
Remove from the oven and cool.
To make the filling, cream the butter and the Sukrin Gold together until fluffy.
Slice the marzipan and add to the creamed butter, beating until combined.
Add the eggs, one at a time, and finally the tapioca starch.
Pour the filling into the crust and bake for 20-25 minutes, until the center is just set.
Melt the butter and caramel syrup together over medium heat in a saucepan, stirring until combined.
Add the nuts and mix to coat.
Pour over the top of the pie filling and bake for a further 5 minutes, until the topping has a nice golden color.
