- 1The Dough Base : Roll out your puff pastry and sprinkle it generously with icing sugar. Roll it out (as it was originally) and put it in the fridge for 20 minutes. Cut out 1/2 cm thick slices of dough. Spread them out thinly, using icing sugar instead of flour. Place each base on a baking tray covered with baking paper, cover with the same baking paper and place another tray to prevent the puff pastry from developing. Bake in an oven at 180C° for 18 minutes. Make sure that the dough discs are well caramelised, otherwise continue baking for a few minutes.
- 2Lemon Cream : Blanch the yolk, egg and sugar. Add the juice of the lemons. Mix and cook for 1 minute from the boil. Remove from the heat and add the butter with a whisk. Set aside in the fridge.
- 3The Crumble : With a fork, mix the butter ointment, sugar, almond powder and flour. Add a few hazelnuts, walnuts and crushed almonds. Spread on a baking sheet. Cook for 20 minutes in an oven at 180C°. Cool and break into small pieces.
- 4Fruits : Cut your fruit and pumpkin into different sizes. Sauté them separately with a honey/butter mixture.
- 5Service : Take a disc of lamination. Spread it with lemon cream. Arrange the fruit according to your inspiration. Finish with mint leaves, 1/2 hazelnuts, lime zest and icing sugar without forgetting some crumbled crumble.
