This recipe uses prepared almond butter to make a quick version of frangipane, a sweetened nut-based custard used as a filling in desserts such as tarts. Fresh sweet-tart blueberries balance the richness of the custard but other berries such as raspberries would also work well.

Directions

  1. Whisk 2 tablespoons each almond butter and sugar, 1 tablespoon softened butter, 1 egg yolk and 1/8 teaspoon almond extract. Spread on 2 pieces sandwich bread. Bake in a toaster oven at 400 degrees F until crusty on top, about 6 minutes. Top with blueberries or raspberries; dust with confectioners' sugar.
