Instructions
1
Preheat oven
Preheat oven to 190°C (th. 6). Lightly grease a 28 x 18 cm shallow baking pan.

Make the crust
Add flour, powdered sugar, and butter to a food processor. Process until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add 1 to 2 tbsp of water and process again to form a firm dough.

Press the crust
Roll the dough out on parchment paper, place it in the pan, and trim the excess. Prick holes all over the crust, cover with aluminum foil and pie weights, and bake for 10 minutes. Remove the foil and weights, then bake for another 5 minutes until golden. Reduce the oven temperature to 170°C (th. 5).

Make filling and assemble
Arrange walnuts on top of the pre-baked crust. Mix all filling ingredients and pour over the walnuts.
