Super Easy, Delicious, and Foolproof Bakewell Tart Recipe

The Bakewell tart is an English classic. Various versions can be found from the cheap and cheerful supermarket ones to fancy coffee shop variants. They all share the same elements: a pastry base, layer of jam topped, and a layer of frangipane decorated with sliced almonds.

That brought back memories of my late mother. It was her absolute favorite. Thank you for this moment

I prepped a double batch, using a homemade raspberry jam and baked them together. This could be a new addition to my baking rotation. Loved the sweet almond the crust and the frangipane/raspberry combo is outstanding. Photos have been posted #369. Thanks again for the recipe, Charlie.

Must try this tart very soon. I guess that you can use the jam of your choice! Thank you Charlie.

That has inspired me to have a go at a Bakewell tart. It looks delicious.

I'm French, I love this tart and I like it even more than the Tarte amandine who appeared to be a step down from the bakewell tart but I don't know where I would place it against the Tarte amandine aux poires.
And if you master this great recipe of bakewell tart remember that you will know how to make Tarte amandine aux poires, just look for a recipe and you'll see what I mean.

I've made a number of tarts and have struggled with getting the crust into the tart pan. Your method of putting the disk down first and flipping it is genius!

I haven't heard of this pastry, Looks so delicious 😋

Hmm it looks most complex with the beautiful layers, but today we will learn that with correct technique and understanding of principles, great beauty can be created by anyone!

Looks fantastic, thanks for your superb videos.

I've never made a Bakewell tart before, myself, and even with all of the times that I've visited England growing up, I've never had one there. It is mostly in the last few years that I've learned about them, and I've been very curious to try one. The other day, I found some pre-made ones in a local grocery store and bought one to try out. Suffice to say... I'm going to have to make one of my own. It was delicious! Almond is one of the flavors that I have come to really love in recent years!

Yours looks just perfect! Thank you for the recipe ❤

Looks tasty! I’ve never made a Bakewell tart but I’ve made several Bakewell puddings.

[denaross]

Looks amazing……will need to add to the list to try 😊

[antheeamorgan]

I've been saying for so long that I am going to do this recipe, but still haven't made it. And I think I even have all the ingredients at hand. I guess this is my queue 😋

I would love to see a comparison of butter alternatives! My friend recently developed a severe lactose intolerance, so I need recipes without butter

@ chainbaker can please do one for basque cheesecake

I have made this tart before using cake crumbs & almond essence for the filling, not ground nuts (nuts give me migraines). This tart was very popular years ago & is now considered to be 'Old Time Favourites'. What I would like to know is, why you didn't dock (prick holes in the pastry base) the pastry before blind baking it.
