Sweet buttery shortcrust pastry with a creamy nutty filling that's literally melts in the mouth. If you don't have macadamia, try some other nuts. Pecans and hazelnuts are great alternatives. Tarts like this can be served on their own but you can serve it with whipped cream or ice cream. Do not skip pre-baking the tart crust. Prebaking the tart shell keeps the crust from getting soggy.

CrustFilling
  • 180 g White spelt flour
  • 120 g Cold unsalted butter, diced
  • 50 g Fine raw sugar
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 Egg, medium
  • 100 g Unsalted butter, at room-temperature
  • 80 g Fine raw sugar
  • Pinch of salt
  • Pinch of freshly grated nutmeg
  • 4 Eggs, medium, at room-temperature
  • 45 g Molasses
  • 120 g Macadamia nuts, finely ground
  • 60 g White spelt flour
  • 150 g Whole macadamias for the topping
  1. To make the crust, in a large bowl whisk together the spelt flour, sugar, and salt. Add in diced butter and egg. Use your hand to mix everything until the dough comes together. Shape dough into a disc. Wrap the disc in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes or until the dough is firm.
  2. Preheat the oven to 180C / 350F fan forced. Roll the pastry dough between two sheets of baking paper. Roll out the dough to a 28cm circle and about 2mm thick. Remove the baking paper and place the dough over a 24cm tart pan with a removeable bottom. Lightly press the dough into the bottom and side of the pan. Trim the overhang. (I then shaped the rest of dough into a cookie)
  3. Line the crust with baking paper and fill with enough dried beans or pastry weights to cover the bottom and side of the crust. Bake for 10-12 minutes. Remove weights and paper, then bake for a further 5 minutes or until tart shell is light golden brown and the base is cooked.
  4. Meanwhile, prepare the filling. Cream butter, sugar, salt and nutmeg together until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs, one at time, then the molasses until fully combined. Add in finely ground macadamias and spelt flour. Fold to combine.
  5. Tip the filling into the crust and arrange the macadamia nuts on top. (the filling was a bit much, so I baked the rest in a tartlet paper liner.) Bake for 30 minutes until filling is firm to touch in centre. Cool for 15 minutes in the pan.
  6. Carefully remove the tart from the pan, then dust with icing sugar and serve warm or cold with whipped cream or ice cream if you wish.

Well that's a beauty! Love macademia nuts and have never seen it as the main ingredient of a tart. With the molasses, I bet this is one delicious tart. Hope you are having a wonderful holiday season Angie!

I love macadamia (but they are expensive, so I hardly buy them to snack on), so this tart generously loaded with macadamia is definitely right up my alley :)

I LOVE macadamia but they are really expensive so I seldom buy them. What a great indulgence this must have been during the holiday season :)
