Time 2h20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (9 inch) pie crust
2 cups chopped walnuts
½ cup dark brown sugar
2 eggs, divided
¼ cup butter, softened
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 (20 ounce) can apple pie filling
½ cup dried cranberries
1 tablespoon water
1 tablespoon Demerara sugar, or as needed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 415 degrees F (210 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Arrange pie crust on the prepared baking sheet. Mix walnuts, brown sugar, 1 egg, butter, and vanilla extract together in a bowl. Spread the walnut filling over the pie crust, leaving a 1-inch border. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the filling in the bowl.
  • Arrange apple slices in a circular pattern over the filling. Sprinkle cranberries over the apples. Drop small amounts of the reserved walnut filling here and there over the apples. Fold crust over the filling, overlapping as necessary to form a rustic circle.
  • Beat remaining egg and water together to make egg wash. Brush edges of crust with the egg wash. Sprinkle Demerara sugar on top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the crust is browned and apples are bubbling, about 30 minutes. Place baking sheet on a cooling rack for 30 minutes. Lift up tart using the parchment paper and place directly on a cooling rack for 1 hour.
  • Run a large knife or angled cake spatula under the tart to release the parchment paper and transfer to a serving tray.

CRANBERRY APPLE TARTE TATIN



Cranberry Apple Tarte Tatin image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     dessert

Time 1h45m

Yield 1 10-inch tart

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 recipe Pate Sucree
5 large apples (about 2 1/2 pounds)
Juice of one lemon
4 tablespoons butter
3/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar
1/3 cup cranberries (optional)

Steps:

  • Make the dough. Form into a 5-inch disk, wrap in plastic and chill one hour, or up to 3 days. Remove the dough from the refrigerator and on a lightly floured surface, roll it to a 12-inch circle. Brush off any excess flour. Place the round on a sheet tray lined with wax or parchment paper, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Peel, core and slice each apple in half. Slice each half in 3 sections and toss the apples in lemon juice. Set aside.
  • Melt the butter, sugar and 1/4 teaspoon lemon juice together in an ovenproof skillet measuring 10 inches across the top. (Bakelite handles are ovenproof.) Cook, stirring, until the mixture turns a light caramel color. Be careful not to overcook; it will continue to darken from the residual heat in the pan. Remove from heat.
  • Arrange the apple slices, rounded side down, in a circle around the skillet and in the center. Scatter the cranberries between the slices. You'll have enough slices to stack them 2 deep.
  • Remove the dough from the refrigerator and center it over the skillet. Using scissors, trim the circle so that it overhangs 1/2-inch all around. Tuck the edge down between the apples and the skillet. Lightly brush the dough with cold water and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon sugar.
  • Bake about 40 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown. Remove from oven and let sit on a cooling rack for 5 minutes. Place a serving dish over the skillet and flip the whole thing to invert the tart onto the plate. (Don't forget to put a potholder over the skillet handle!) Serve with ginger whipped cream.

Time 3h

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/4 cups plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 cup instant or fine polenta
1 3/4 cups sugar
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
Freshly grated zest of 1 lemon
4 ounces (1 stick) unsalted butter, diced
1 large egg plus 3 large egg yolks
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 cup light corn syrup
3 cups (12-ounce bag) fresh cranberries, picked over
1/2 cup heavy cream
Confectioners' sugar, optional

Steps:

  • Place 1 1/4 cups flour, polenta, 1 cup sugar, 1 teaspoon salt and lemon zest in a food processor and process to blend. Add butter and pulse until mixture resembles coarse sand. In a small bowl, beat whole egg with oil and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Uncover processor, pour in liquid ingredients and pulse until a ball of dough forms. This may take 20 or more quick pulses. If necessary, sprinkle in a little water if mixture does not come together. Form dough into a disk and wrap in plastic. Chill at least 1 hour.
  • In a 3-quart saucepan, melt remaining sugar over low heat. Stir in syrup and bring to a boil. Add cranberries and cook, stirring, about 2 minutes, until they begin to release juice. Remove to a bowl and allow to cool about 20 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Roll out dough to an 12-inch circle and fit into a 10-inch loose-bottom tart pan. If dough tears, it can easily be pressed together.
  • In a bowl, whisk together cream and 2 tablespoons flour. Whisk in three egg yolks, remaining vanilla and a pinch of salt. Pour over cranberries and fold together. Pour into tart shell, place pan on a baking sheet and bake about 40 minutes, until filling bubbles but is not yet firm, and pastry browns. Cool in pan before removing sides; if desired, dust with confectioners' sugar.

CRANBERRY APPLE TART



Cranberry Apple Tart image

It's easy to love apple pie. Turning out the perfect crust? Not so easy. Which is why this apple and dried cranberry tart does away with the hard part without sacrificing the joy of baking. This recipe uses purchased pizza dough to create a thin crust that is topped with tart apple slices.For a nice finish, dust the tart with powdered sugar, or a blend of powdered sugar and cinnamon. If you'd prefer a more traditional crust, a prepared pie crust also could be used. But pizza crust lends a nice chew that works well with the tender apple slices. Be sure to let the dough come to room temperature before rolling it. The dried cranberries can be soaked in water or juice for 15 minutes before using. This isn't necessary, but it makes them plump and juicy. Be sure to drain them well before placing them on the tarts.

Time 1h

Yield 2 10" tarts, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 ball prepared pizza dough, room temperature
8 tablespoons butter (1 stick)
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon cardamom
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
8 medium tart apples, peeled, cored and thinly sliced
1/2 cup dried cranberries

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 375. Lightly coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.
  • On a lightly floured counter, divided the dough in two. Use a rolling pin to roll out each piece of dough into a 10-in. circle about ¼ inches thick. Transfer the crusts to the prepared baking sheet (you may need to use 2 sheets). Set aside.
  • Place the butter in a small, microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high until melted. Mix in the cinnamon, cardamom, nutmeg and brown sugar. Use a pastry brush to coat both crusts with some of the butter mixture; reserve the remaining butter.
  • Arrange half of the apple slices over each crust, then brush the apples with the remaining butter. Sprinkle half of the cranberries over each tart. Bake for 45 to 55 minutes, or until the crust is lightly browned and the apples are tender. Let cool before serving.

  • Use a variety of apples for a more complex flavor. Some good options include Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Pink Lady.
  • If you don't have fresh cranberries, you can use frozen cranberries. Just be sure to thaw them before using.
  • For a sweeter tart, add a little extra sugar to the filling. You can also drizzle the tart with maple syrup or honey before serving.
  • If you don't have time to make the tart dough from scratch, you can use a pre-made tart shell.

Conclusion:

This apple cranberry tart is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The tart crust is flaky and buttery, and the filling is sweet and tangy.
