Step 1

Pre heat oven to 180c fan-forced

Step 2

Unroll sheet of pastry, lightly dust surface and underside of pastry with flour.

Step 3

If using a rectangular tin place tart tin on pastry then cut around tin leaving a 2.5cm border. For a 23cm round tin use a 26cm dinner plate to cut a circle.

Step 4

Line the tart tin, pushing the pastry gently into the base and sides of the tin. Place in the fridge to chill while you prepare filling.

Step 5

Using a food processor or Thermomix grind the pecan nuts to a rough meal consistency and set to one side.

Step 6

Cream the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy and has changed to a paler colour. Add the eggs and cornflour and beat until just combined – do not overbeat otherwise it will split.

Step 7

Fold in the ground pecans, lemon zest, maple syrup and a pinch of sea salt until combined. Add the mix to prepared pastry shell, decorate the tart with remaining pecans.

Step 8

Place on a baking tray and bake for 10 minutes at 180c fan-forced (200c non-fan), then reduce oven to 160c fan-forced (180 non-fan) and continue to bake for 25 minutes. Allow to cool for 30 minutes before removing from tart shell. Serve with a dollop of mascarpone or crème fraiche
