Bakewell tart

Bakewell tart is known as Bakewell pudding in the eponymous Derbyshire town. The essential flavour combination of ground almonds, sugar, butter and eggs is called frangipane and the same tart will work well without the jam and with, say, some poached pears or apricots instead. Similarly, ground walnuts or hazelnuts in place of almonds with a decorative sprinkling of halved roasted specimens on top will make an equally tasty tart.
