For the filling:
|
180
g cold butter

2
limes

220
g flour

100

Mix the butter together with the flour, sugar powder and 2 tbsp cold water to a smooth dough.
Grease the tart form.
Place the dough on a floured surface, roll out about 30 cm and place in the pie form. Press the dough firmly at the edge.
Stab the crust several times with a fork and place in the freezer for 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 200 ° C.
Wash and dry the limes. Grate the peel of the 2 limes.
Squeeze the juice from the limes. I used the juice from 4 limes, but since the filling is too acidic, I recommend to use the juice from 2.
Mix in a bowl 100g sugar with the eggs.
Add the cream cheese, lime juice as well as the sugar powder and mix.
Add the zest.
Wash and dry the figs. Cut them in halve.
Pour the liquid lime cream over the pastry. Top with figs.
Bake on the bottom rack for ~ 45 minutes.
Toast in a pan the pine nuts until golden brown.
Top with the pine nuts.
