Cinnamon And Orange Tuiles Recipes

OATMEAL CINNAMON TUILES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425°F and butter generously 2 large baking sheets.
• In a small bowl cream together with a wooden spoon butter, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt. Add egg white and whisk until smooth. Stir in flour and stir in oats thoroughly. Drop batter by rounded teaspoons 4 inches apart onto prepared baking sheets. With the back of the spoon spread batter into 2 1/2-inch rounds and bake, 1 sheet at a time, in middle of oven 4 to 6 minutes, or until edges turn golden. Immediately transfer tuiles with a metal spatula to a rolling pin and cool in curved shapes. Tuiles may be made 1 day ahead and kept in an airtight container.

TUILES

Steps:

• Sift the flour, sugar, and salt into a small mixing bowl. Add the egg whites and then the melted unsalted butter, and whisk until just combined. Set the batter aside to rest for 1 1/2 hours before using, or cover and refrigerate for up to 3 days.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F. Heavily butter 3 pieces of parchment paper, and place one each on three baking sheets. Using 1 1/2 Tbsps. per tuile, spoon the batter onto the baking sheets, 5 per sheet. The cookies should be at least 2 inches apart, as they spread during baking. Dipping a finger in the milk first, spread each cookie into a 3-inch round. To insure even baking, make the edges no thinner than the centers.
• Bake the tuiles 8 to 10 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the centers are just beginning to color. Remove the cookies from the oven. As soon as they are cool enough to handle, remove the tuiles from the baking sheets and drape them around rolling pins or wine bottles. If the cookies become too cool and stiff to bend, return them to the oven for a minute or so and they will soften up.

CINNAMON AND ORANGE TUILES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 and line two or three large baking sheets with non-stick baking parchment (you may want to lightly sprinkle the sheets with water before laying the parchment paper down).
• Whisk the egg whites until softly peaking, then whick in the sugar until smooth and glossy.
• Add the cinnamon and the orange rind.
• Sift the flour into the mixture and fold in the melted butter.
• When well blended, add 1 tbl of recently boiled water to thin the mixture.
• Place a teaspoonful of the mixture down on the sheet and flatten out with the back of the spoon into a circle. Keep the circles far apart and only put 4 or 5 on each sheet.
• Bake, one sheet at a time, for 7 minutes, or until just golden brown.
• Cool for just a few seconds on the sheet and then rmove the with a metal spatula and immediately roll around the handle of a wooden spoon so that the ends overlap each other. Place on a rack to cool.
