Tools

  • 1 Pan 9-inch tart pan
  • 3 Bowls

  • 1 Electric whisk

Steps

  • For the shortcrust pastry, beat the egg yolks with sugar and aromas in a bowl. Add the coconut oil and mix well until smooth. Gradually add the flours and knead. If necessary, decrease or increase the flour, as it depends on absorption. Form a dough ball and wrap it in plastic wrap. Let it rest in the fridge for 30 minutes before using. Roll out the shortcrust pastry to a thickness of 1/5 inch. Fill with orange marmalade and bake in a preheated oven at 338°F for about 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool.

    Meanwhile, soak the gelatin in cold water. Pour the mascarpone into a bowl, add the powdered sugar, and 2 tablespoons of orange liqueur. Mix well and set aside. In a saucepan, add 2 tablespoons of water and heat. As soon as it boils, add the gelatin and let it dissolve. Remove from heat and pour it into the mascarpone cream. Mix immediately with a whisk. Add the whipped cream, mixing from bottom to top. Pour the mixture into the shortcrust pastry shell. Level well and let it set in the fridge for at least 6 hours. Decorate as desired.
