CRANBERRY LINZER TORTE



Cranberry Linzer Torte image

This version of Linzer torte, a classic Viennese pastry, has a dough with a high proportion of ground hazelnuts and almonds. It is usually filled with a raspberry or apricot jam, but cranberries make it a perfect Thanksgiving dessert. The secret to rolling a dough made with nuts is to keep chilling it if it becomes difficult to handle. Linzer torte keeps up to a week if well-wrapped, and also freezes well, before or after baking.

Time 2h

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

12 ounces/340 grams cranberries
2 cups/450 grams sugar
Zest of 1 orange
Juice of 1 orange, plus water to equal 3/4 cup/220 milliliters
Pinch of salt
3/4 cup/120 grams whole hazelnuts
3/4 cup/120 grams whole almonds
1 3/4 cups/270 grams unbleached all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
14 tablespoons/198 grams unsalted butter, plus more for greasing the pan
3/4 cup/160 grams sugar
Zest of 1 lemon
Zest of 1 orange
1 large egg, plus 1 egg yolk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
1 1/4 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
Powdered sugar, optional

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients in a saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring to dissolve sugar. Lower heat to a brisk simmer and stir frequently, until cranberries burst. Continue cooking, mashing fruit a bit with the back of a spoon, until thick as jam, about 30 minutes. Set aside. (Filling may be prepared in advance.)
  • Heat oven to 400 degrees. Place hazelnuts and almonds on a baking sheet and bake about 10 minutes, until well browned. Rub skins off hazelnuts while still warm, discarding skins. Cool nuts, then grind finely in a food processor, adding 3 tablespoons of flour to keep them from becoming oily. (Nuts should have the texture of coarse cornmeal.) Set aside.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer with whisk attachment, combine butter, sugar, and lemon and orange zest. Beat until sugar is dissolved and mixture is pale and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in egg, egg yolk and vanilla.
  • In a separate bowl, mix together ground nuts, the rest of the flour, cloves, cinnamon, baking powder and salt. Add to butter mixture in three parts, mixing each time until it forms a slightly sticky dough.
  • Divide dough into two pieces, one slightly bigger. Form larger piece into a ball, wrap and flatten to a 1-inch thickness. Form smaller piece into a rough rectangle, wrap and flatten to a 1-inch thickness about 4 by 5 inches. Chill 3 to 4 hours, or overnight.
  • Heat oven to 350. Butter and flour an 11-inch fluted French tart pan. Remove dough from refrigerator and let stand for 10 minutes. On floured parchment paper, roll the larger piece of dough into a 12-inch circle, dusting the top with flour as necessary. If dough is difficult to handle, chill again. Pat evenly into pan until sides and bottom are completely lined with dough about 1/8-inch thick. Refrigerate or freeze tart shell until firm.
  • Roll out smaller piece of dough on floured parchment paper to rectangle about 10 by 12 inches and 1/8-inch thick. Cut into strips about 3/4 inch by 12 inches. Transfer parchment to a tray and refrigerate or freeze until firm.
  • Spread cranberry jam evenly into shell. Lay strips across top in a lattice pattern. Form remaining dough scraps into a rope 1/2 inch in diameter and use it to encircle outer edge of tart. Score diagonally with the handle of a spoon or flute with fingers to make a border.
  • Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until jam is bubbling and pastry is lightly browned. Let cool, and dust with powdered sugar if desired. Serve in small wedges.

CRANBERRY-WALNUT LINZER TORTE



Cranberry-Walnut Linzer Torte image

Provided by Florence Fabricant

Categories     dessert

Time 1h15m

Yield 6 - 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups fresh cranberries
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup apple juice
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1 cup finely ground walnuts
1 1/4 cups flour
2 tablespoons cocoa
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 stick butter, chilled and in small pieces
1 egg yolk beaten with 1 tablespoon cold water
Confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Combine the cranberries, three-fourths cup sugar, apple juice, one-half teaspoon cinnamon and cloves in a heavy saucepan. Bring to a simmer and cook over medium heat about 15 minutes, until the mixture becomes thick like a jam. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
  • Combine the walnuts, flour, cocoa, remaining one-fourth cup sugar, salt and remaining one-half teaspoon cinnamon in a bowl or a food processor. Add the butter, cut it in by hand or pulse it briefly in the food processor. Add the egg and water, mixing lightly to form a dough or, in a food processor, add the egg and water through the feed tube with the processor running.
  • Gather the dough together and divide it into two parts, one slightly larger than the other. Pat the larger part into a flattened circle and transfer it to an 8- or 9-inch round cake pan with a removable bottom. Pat the dough evenly into the pan to cover the bottoms and sides up to about one-and-a-half inches high. Spread the cranberry jam into the pastry shell.
  • Roll or pat the remaining dough into a rectangle about 8 by 5 inches. Slice it into about eight strips one-half-inch wide and arrange them over the cranberry filling in a lattice pattern, pressing the ends of the strips into the rim of the dough. Press a pattern into the rim of the dough with the tines of a fork.
  • Bake for 20 minutes, reduce heat to 350 degrees and bake about 25 minutes longer, until the dough is lightly browned and the filling is bubbly.
  • Allow to cool, then dust with sifted confectioners' sugar before serving.

My Austrian grandmother made this nutty jam-filled linzer torte only at Christmastime. So did my mother, and now I'm proud to carry on the tasty tradition. It's a great way to end a holiday meal.

CRANBERRY WALNUT TART



Cranberry Walnut Tart image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     dessert

Time 1h30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
6 ounces (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 egg
2 1/2 ounces (5 tablespoons or a little over 1/2 stick) unsalted butter
2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon all-purpose flour
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/3 cup dark corn syrup
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2/3 cup whole, fresh cranberries
2/3 cup walnut pieces

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • To make the sweet dough: Place the sugar, butter, and vanilla extract in the bowl of an electric mixer. With the paddle attachment, beat the ingredients until creamy. Add flour and salt and mix until just combined. Add egg and again mix until just combined. Alternately, this can be done in a food processor. Form a disk out of the dough, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 1/2 hour. When dough is slightly chilled, lay it between 2 sheets of plastic wrap, and with a rolling pin, roll it out into a round ? about 1/8-inch in thickness. Remove the top layer of plastic wrap and flip the dough into an ungreased tart or pie pan. With the plastic wrap still on the dough, gently press the dough into the bottom and sides of the pan. Use the rolling pin to roll across the top of the tart pan, cutting off excess dough. Remove plastic wrap and set lined pan aside while making the filling. Excess unbaked dough can be rolled out, sprinkled with sugar, and baked as sugar cookies or can be wrapped and frozen for another day.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • To make the Cranberry Walnut Filling: Melt butter and set aside. In a bowl, blend together flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Add the rest of the ingredients, including the butter, and stir until well combined.
  • Pour into tart shell and bake for approximately 30 minutes, until tart is light brown and the filling has set. Cool and remove tart from ring. Serve at room temperature or refrigerate. Tart keeps for about 1 week in the refrigerator. It can be well wrapped and frozen for later use.
