Ingredients
- 1 cup goldenberries
- 2 tablespoons dried goldenberries
- 1 cup almonds, ground
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/2 cup butter, softened
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
Directions
- In a small saucepan, combine the goldenberries, almonds, honey, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat until the berries have softened and released their juices, about 5-7 minutes.
- Using a potato masher or a fork, mash the berries to break them up and release more of their juices.
- In a small mixing bowl, combine the mashed berries, almonds, honey, and lemon juice. Mix well until the ingredients are well combined. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time.
- In a separate mixing bowl, sift together the flour and baking powder. Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture and mix until well combined.
- Divide the dough in half and press half of it into the bottom of a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom.
- Spoon the goldenberry mixture over the dough and spread it evenly.
- Roll out the remaining dough and cut it into strips. Arrange the strips over the top of the goldenberry mixture in a lattice pattern.
- Bake the pie in a preheated oven at 350 degrees F for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
- Let the pie cool to room temperature before serving.
