BLUEBERRY ALMOND BREAKFAST TART



Blueberry Almond Breakfast Tart image

Provided by Anne Thornton, Host of Dessert First

Time 13h5m

Yield 1 (9-inch) tart

Number Of Ingredients 15

5 1/4 pints fresh blueberries, divided
3/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
3 large egg yolks
2 teaspoons cornstarch
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/3 cup sliced almonds, plus 2 tablespoons, lightly toasted
2 tablespoons sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) chilled butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 large egg yolk
1/3 teaspoon almond extract
1/2 cup black currant jelly

Steps:

  • Filling: In a heavy bottom medium saucepan add 4 pints blueberries, the sugar, and the lemon juice. Coarsely mash the berries with a fork. Stir over medium-high heat until the sugar dissolves and mixture boils and thickens, about 8 minutes. In a medium bowl whisk the egg yolks and cornstarch together. Slowly whisk in half of the hot berry mixture (making sure not to cook egg yolks), then return the egg mixture to the pan. Stir over medium-high heat until mixture boils and thickens, about 3 minutes. Whisk in the butter, and lemon peel. Transfer the filling to a bowl, cover and refrigerate overnight.
  • Crust: Mix the flour, 1/3 cup sliced almonds, sugar, and salt in a food processor until the almonds are finely ground. Add the butter, pulsing until the mixture looks like coarse meal. In a small bowl, whisk together the egg yolk, and almond extract. Add the mixture to the food processor and blend until moist clumps form. Gather the dough into a ball and flatten it into a disk. Lightly butter a 9-inch-diameter tart pan with a removable bottom. Press the dough onto the bottom and up the sides of the pan. Pierce the crust all over with fork, and freeze for 45 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degree F. Line the crust with foil, and fill it with dried beans or pie weights.
  • Bake until the crust is set, about 12 minutes. Remove the foil and beans, and continue to bake until the crust is golden, about 16 minutes more. Cool the crust completely on a rack. Spread the filling in the crust, and sprinkle the remaining 1 1/4 pints of blueberries over the filling. In a small saucepan over medium heat, add the black currant jelly and stir until melted. Brush the jelly over the berries as a glaze. Sprinkle the remaining 2 tablespoons sliced almonds around the edge of the tart. Cover loosely with foil and chill at least 2 hours. Remove the pan sides. Put the tart on a platter, and serve cold or at room temperature.

BLUEBERRY ALMOND BREAKFAST TART



Blueberry Almond Breakfast Tart image

Provided by Anne Thornton, Host of Dessert First

Time 3h5m

Yield 1 (9-inch) tart

Number Of Ingredients 15

3/4 cup sugar
Pinch sea salt
5 (1/4-pints) fresh blueberries, divided
1 lemon
3 large egg yolks
21/2 teaspoons cornstarch
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons toasted sliced almonds
2 tablespoons sugar
Pinch salt
1 large egg yolk
1 stick butter, cold, cut into pieces
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
2/3 cup black currant jelly plus 1 tablespoon water

Steps:

  • For the berry filling: Add the sugar, pinch of salt and 2 (1/4-pints) blueberries to a saucepan. Zest the lemon over the top, then juice about 1 tablespoon and add to the berries. Give it a stir. Put on the stove about medium heat and cook until the berries release their juices and looks like jelly or jam.
  • While that's happening, whisk your egg yolks and cornstarch together in small bowl. Stir into the berries and boil until nice and thick. Set aside.
  • For the crust: Put your flour into a food processor, add the 1/2 cup almonds, the sugar, a pinch of salt and pulse until it's a fine meal. Add the egg yolk and cold butter (Cold butter makes the crust nice and flaky.) Add the extract and process the mixture until it turns into a little ball of dough.
  • Press the dough nice and evenly into a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom. Freeze 1 hour or so to firm it up. Freezing will also help make a nice crispy tart after baking.
  • Put a piece of parchment on the dough and fill it with dried beans. Bake for 12 minutes or so. This is called blind baking, which keeps the crust nice and flat and leaves plenty of room for the filling.
  • Remove the beans and parchment and cook the crust until it's nice and golden brown, another 16 minutes. Let cool.
  • Heat the black currant jelly and 1 tablespoon water in a saucepan to melt it.
  • Pour the blueberry filling in the tart and spread out to the edges. Mound the remaining fresh blueberries over top. Brush the top with the jelly glaze. Take the remaining toasted almonds and sprinkle them around the edges. Place in the fridge to firm up.
  • Remove the tart bottom, slice and serve.

FRESH FRUIT TART WITH ALMOND PRESS-IN CRUST



Fresh Fruit Tart With Almond Press-In Crust image

Eating fruit tarts is great. Rolling out dough on a brutally hot day isn't. Good thing this stunner has a no-fuss press-in crust.

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

Crust:
2 large egg yolks
1 cup all-purpose flour
½ cup almond flour (such as Bob's Red Mill Super-Fine Natural Almond Flour) or ½ cup all-purpose flour
3 Tbsp. sugar
1 tsp. kosher salt
½ cup (1 stick) chilled unsalted butter, cut into pieces
Custard and assembly:
2 cups whole milk
1 tsp. vanilla paste or 1½ tsp. vanilla extract
4 large egg yolks
⅓ cup sugar
¼ cup cornstarch
¼ tsp. kosher salt
3 Tbsp. unsalted butter, cut into pieces
12 oz. fresh blueberries
6 oz. fresh blackberries, halved if very large
Special Equipment: A (9"-diameter) springform pan or tart pan with removable bottom

Steps:

  • Crust:
  • Place a rack in the middle of oven; preheat to 350°F. Whisk egg yolks and 1 Tbsp. cold water in a small bowl to combine.
  • Whisk all-purpose flour, almond flour, sugar, and salt in a medium bowl. Add butter and rub and smash into dry ingredients with your fingers to create large, shaggy pieces (you want some pieces that are flat and thin and some that are large and irregular).
  • Drizzle egg yolk mixture over flour and, using a fork or your fingers, toss into dough to incorporate. Knead dough in bowl until it starts to come together (it will still look a little dry; although, if it looks too dry and doesn't come together, add 1-2 Tbsp. more water, but only if needed).
  • Turn dough out onto a clean work surface and knead 1 or 2 more times. Divide dough in half, stack pieces, and press down firmly to smash together. Repeat process until dough is well combined and becomes slightly sticky, 2-3 more times. Press dough into bottom and 1" up sides of pan and prick all over with a fork. Freeze until very firm, 20-30 minutes.
  • Bake crust until deep golden brown all over, 35-40 minutes. Let cool.
  • Do Ahead: Crust can be baked 2 days ahead. Store tightly wrapped at room temperature.
  • Custard and assembly:
  • Bring milk and vanilla paste to a simmer in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Remove from heat.
  • Meanwhile, whisk egg yolks, sugar, cornstarch, and salt in a medium bowl, starting slowly-it won't want to combine easily at first-then vigorously whisk until mixture is very pale yellow and very thick, about 1 minute (the sugar should be nearly dissolved at this point). Whisking constantly, gradually add hot milk mixture. Return custard base to saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat, whisking constantly. Simmer, still whisking constantly, until custard is thickened and has no cornstarch taste, about 3 minutes.
  • Remove custard from heat and add butter a couple of pieces at a time, whisking until fully melted before adding more, until all of the butter is incorporated. Transfer to a medium bowl and cover with plastic wrap, pressing directly against surface. Let cool.
  • Vigorously whisk custard until smooth and slightly loosened. Scrape into crust and smooth surface. Top with berries.
  • Do Ahead: Custard can be made 4 days ahead. Keep chilled.
