Time 2h25m

Yield Makes about 9 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 cups unbleached all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
3 sticks cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
3/4 cup sour cream
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3/4 cup seedless raspberry jam

Steps:

  • Pulse flour and salt in a food processor until combined. Add butter and pulse until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add sour cream and pulse until mixture holds together when pinched. Knead dough on a work surface to bring together, then flatten into an 8-by-6-inch rectangle. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour and up to overnight.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a small bowl, stir together sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle half of mixture evenly on work surface. Let dough stand at room temperature until pliable. Cut in half; place one half of dough on sugared surface. With a floured rolling pin, roll into a 14-inch square. Spread half of jam onto dough, leaving a 1/4-inch border all around. Starting from one side, tightly roll dough toward center, incorporating sugar. Repeat, rolling other side to meet first roll in middle. Freeze 15 minutes.
  • With a serrated knife, cut dough crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices. (Refrigerate dough as needed if it gets too soft to slice.) Arrange slices 2 inches apart on parchment-lined baking sheets.
  • Bake 10 minutes. Carefully flip palmiers with an offset spatula and bake until golden, about 6 minutes more. Let cool on sheets 1 minute, then transfer to a wire rack; let cool completely. Repeat with remaining sugar mixture and dough. Cookies can be stored in an airtight container, between sheets of waxed paper, up to 1 week.

RASPBERRY FILLED PALMIERS RECIPE - (4.5/5)

Provided by Foodiewife

Number Of Ingredients 10

EQUIPMENT NEEDED:
1 sheet puff pastry
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup seedless raspberry jam, optional
Baking Sheet
Parchment paper or a Silpat Mat
rolling pin
sharp knife
a bowl of water
a small bowl of sugar

Steps:

  • Thaw the puff pastry sheet, according to package directions. Spread an even layer of sugar onto a pastry board. Place the thawed pastry sheet on top of the sugar. Sprinkle a layer of sugar on top of the pastry sheet. Gently roll the pastry sheet, pressing with a medium firmness to push the sugar into the dough. Spread a very thin layer of seedless raspberry jam onto the puff pastry, leaving about a 2" border all the way around.Turn the dough with the short side facing you. Fold the end closest to you about 1 1/2" inward. Do the same from the other side. With a rolling pin, press the dough together. Be careful not to press too hard, or the jam will ooze out. Again, fold another 1 1/2" inward on each side. Now, fold one side on top of the other, add additional sugar and press again with a rolling pin. Using a sharp knife, cut about 3/8" slices and place about 1 1/2" apart on parchment paper. Freeze for 15 minutes, or refrigerate for 30 minutes. Don't skip this step! Preheat the oven to 375˚F. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, depending on your oven, until golden brown. Place on a cooling sheet. These are excellent warm, or cold with a cup of hot coffee or hot tea. NOTE: You can freeze these and bake at a later time.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe and fresh raspberries: This will ensure that your palmiers have the best flavor and texture.
  • Use a sharp knife to slice the raspberries: This will help to prevent them from crushing.
  • Chill the dough before rolling: This will make it easier to work with and prevent the palmiers from becoming too sticky.
  • Roll the dough out thinly: This will help to create flaky layers in the palmiers.
  • Brush the dough with melted butter before sprinkling with sugar: This will help the sugar to adhere to the dough.
  • Bake the palmiers until they are golden brown: This will ensure that they are cooked through and have a crispy texture.

Conclusion:

Raspberry palmiers are a delicious and elegant pastry that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized with different fillings and toppings. With a little practice, you can create beautiful and delicious palmiers that will impress your friends and family.
