Take out and carefully remove the baking beans and parchment. 8. Return to the oven for a further 5 minutes. Remove and allow to cool slightly. For the Bakewell Topping: 1.

Mix the raspberry jam and cranberry sauce together and spread over the base of the pastry case. 5. Spoon the almond mixture over the top, making sure it reaches the edges and it is even and smooth. | |||||||||||||||||||
