These elegant persimmon almond rosette tarts feature a crisp, buttery crust filled with rich almond cream and topped with thinly sliced persimmons arranged in beautiful rose patterns. Lightly sweet, nutty, and visually stunning, these mini tarts make a perfect fall dessert for holidays, gatherings, or afternoon tea.

Ingredients

For the Tart Shells:
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
1 egg yolk
2–3 tablespoons cold water
Pinch of salt

For the Almond Filling:
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 cup almond flour
1 large egg
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour

For the Topping:
2–3 ripe but firm persimmons, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon honey or apricot jam (for glaze)
1 tablespoon warm water (to thin glaze)

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, and salt. Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

  2. Add the egg yolk and cold water, mixing just until the dough comes together. Form into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

  3. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease mini tart pans.

  4. Roll out the chilled dough and press it into the tart pans. Trim excess dough and prick the bottoms with a fork.

  5. In a separate bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg and almond extract, mixing well. Stir in almond flour and all-purpose flour until smooth.

  6. Spoon the almond filling evenly into each tart shell, smoothing the tops.

  7. Arrange thin persimmon slices in overlapping circles to create a rosette pattern on top of each tart.

  8. Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the filling is set and lightly golden.

  9. Warm the honey or apricot jam with water and gently brush over the persimmons for a glossy finish.

  10. Allow the tarts to cool before removing from pans. Serve at room temperature.
