Description

This pecan nut tart is a real treat for all nut lovers! The crispy shortcrust pastry base harmonizes perfectly with the sweet, caramel filling and the crunchy pecan nuts. I especially like to bake this tart in autumn, when the nuts are freshly harvested. It's a great eye-catcher on any coffee table and tastes simply delicious, even lukewarm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. The preparation is a bit more complex, but the result is well worth it! A recipe that is always well received by friends and family.
