Strawberry Shortcakes with Vanilla-Orange Syrup image

Categories     Cake     Berry     Dessert     Bake     Strawberry     Orange     Gourmet     Vegetarian     Pescatarian     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     Kosher

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

For cake
4 large egg yolks and 2 large egg whites
3/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons whole milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
For strawberries in syrup
1 vanilla bean, halved lengthwise
1/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup water
1 to 1 1/2 tablespoons finely grated fresh orange zest (from 2 oranges)
1/4 cup fresh orange juice
1 pint strawberries (3/4 lb)
For cream
1/4 cup chilled heavy cream
2 teaspoons sugar
2 tablespoons sour cream
Special equipment: a 3- to 3 1/4-inch round cookie cutter

Steps:

  • Make cake:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F and butter an 8- by 2-inch square metal baking pan. Line bottom of pan with parchment or wax paper, then butter paper. Dust with flour, knocking out excess.
  • Whisk together yolks, 1/2 cup sugar, milk, and vanilla in a large bowl until combined well. Whisk in flour and salt (batter will be thick).
  • Beat whites with an electric mixer until they hold soft peaks. Gradually beat in remaining 1/4 cup sugar and beat until whites hold stiff, glossy peaks.
  • Stir about one third of whites into batter to lighten, then fold in remaining whites in 2 more batches, gently but thoroughly.
  • Transfer batter to baking pan, spreading evenly, and bake in middle of oven until pale golden and a tester comes out clean, 14 to 16 minutes. Cool cake completely in pan on a rack (cake will shrink from sides of pan). When cool, run a sharp knife around side of cake if necessary and invert onto rack, then remove paper.
  • Make strawberries in syrup:
  • Scrape seeds from vanilla bean with tip of sharp knife into a small saucepan, then add pod. Add sugar, water, zest, and juice. Bring to a boil, stirring until sugar is dissolved, and boil 1 minute.
  • Transfer to a bowl and chill 30 minutes. Pour syrup through a fine sieve into another bowl and discard solids. Gently stir in strawberries and let stand 15 minutes.
  • Make cream:
  • Beat together cream, sugar, and sour cream until mixture just holds stiff peaks.
  • Assemble shortcakes:
  • Cut 4 rounds from cake with cookie cutter.
  • Generously brush both sides of each round with syrup from strawberry mixture and arrange, darker sides up, on plates. Spoon strawberries onto rounds and let stand 5 minutes to allow more syrup to soak into cake. Top rounds with dollops of cream and drizzle with remaining syrup.

BREAKFAST STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKES



Breakfast Strawberry Shortcakes image

This recipe is sponsored by Chobani® with Zero Sugar*. Yes, you can have strawberry shortcake for breakfast! We adapted the beloved dessert for the morning by whipping up the easiest 2-ingredient flaky biscuits with self-rising flour and no-sugar dairy product. Finished with a quick homemade strawberry jam, they're a delicious way to start the day.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 35m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 cups self-rising flour, plus more for dusting (see Cook's Note)
1 1/4 cups no-sugar dairy product, such as Chobani® with Zero Sugar* Vanilla (see Cook's Note), plus more for serving
1 pound fresh or frozen strawberries, hulled if fresh (see Cook's Note)
1/4 cup apple juice
2 to 4 tablespoons honey, maple syrup or agave syrup, as desired
1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Combine the flour, dairy product and 1/4 cup water in a medium bowl and stir with a rubber spatula until a shaggy dough forms. Turn out the dough onto a lightly floured work surface. Lightly flour the dough and pat it out until it is about 1/2 inch thick. Using a spatula or bench scraper, fold the dough in half like a book. Pat it into a 5-by-10-inch rectangle. Flour a sharp knife and cut the rectangle in half lengthwise. Cut each half into four 2 1/2-inch squares, flouring the knife after each cut. Evenly space the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet and bake, rotating the baking sheet halfway through, until light golden, about 25 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, combine the strawberries, apple juice, honey and vanilla in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cover the pan. Cook until the strawberries are softened, about 5 minutes. Uncover the pan and break up the strawberries with a fork or potato masher. Continue to cook over medium-high heat, uncovered and stirring frequently, until the foam subsides and the mixture has thickened, about 10 minutes.
  • To serve, cut each biscuit in half, spoon in some dairy product and top with the strawberry mixture.

STRAWBERRY & VANILLA SHORTCAKES



Strawberry & vanilla shortcakes image

Encapsulate British summertime with these cute little shortcakes, perfect piled high with clotted cream and jam

Provided by Jane Hornby

Categories     Afternoon tea, Dessert, Treat

Time 27m

Yield Make 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

350g self-raising flour , plus extra for dusting
100g butter , cold, cubed
100g caster sugar
1 vanilla pod , seeds scraped
100ml milk , warmed
1 egg , plus a little extra beaten egg for glazing
squeeze lemon juice
1 tbsp icing sugar
227g tub clotted cream
250g strawberry , tickly sliced
strawberry jam (see 'goes well with' for recipe, or buy ready-made)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 220C/fan 200C/gas 7 and lightly flour a baking sheet. Put the flour, butter, sugar, half of the vanilla seeds and ¼ tsp salt into the bowl of a food processor, then pulse until fine. Tip into a large bowl. Beat the milk, egg and a good squeeze of lemon together, then tip into the bowl and bring together with a knife, using a cutting action, until you have a clumpy dough. Finally bring together with your hands if you need to.
  • Lightly flour the work surface, tip the dough onto it, then quickly shape into a smooth-ish disc. Using a rolling pin, pat out to 2cm thick. Cut out 8 rounds with a smooth 7cm cutter (you'll need to pinch together the trimmings). Glaze just the tops with beaten egg, transfer to the floured sheet, then bake for 10-12 mins until risen and golden, and they sound hollow when tapped on the bottom. Cool on a wire rack.
  • Beat the remaining vanilla seeds and icing sugar into the clotted cream. It will get runnier at first, but keep beating and it will thicken again. To serve, slice the very top from each shortcake to give a flat surface, then spoon over about 1 tsp jam. Top with a good dollop of the vanilla clotted cream and finish with the strawberries.
