Classic Raspberry Tartlets
These beautiful French tartlets feature a buttery crisp crust filled with rich almond cream and topped with fresh, tart raspberries.
recipesbynani.comThere is something so special about walking into a bakery and seeing rows of perfect little fruit tartlets. These raspberry tartlets, or Tartelettes aux Framboises, bring that bakery experience right into your home kitchen. They are elegant, delicious, and always a crowd pleaser when you have guests over for coffee or dessert.
I love this recipe because the almond cream filling is so simple to whip up. You can bake your tart shells and make your filling ahead of time to make hosting a breeze. Just assemble them, pop them in the oven, and you have a stunning dessert ready to go.

💡 Tips
You can store these in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days. For the best flavor and texture, I like to serve them slightly warm or at room temperature with a dollop of whipped cream.
