Instructions
- Mix crust flour and salt, cut in cold butter, moisten with exactly 65 ml ice water and chill dough 30 minutes.
- Roll crust into a 23 cm pie dish; crimp and refrigerate 15 minutes. Heat oven to 350°F (177°C).
- Whisk eggs, syrup, sugar, melted butter, vanilla and salt until blended; mix in any listed additional flavor ingredients.
- Fold in all sliced almonds, pour into the cold pastry and spread evenly.
- Bake 50–60 minutes, protecting crust edges as needed, until center is only slightly wobbly and reaches at least 160°F (71°C).

Tips
- If using nuts with thin skins, toast first for a deeper, less raw flavor.
- Avoid cutting hot: warm syrup fillings require several hours to set.
