Kiwi And Cream Pie Recipes

KIWI LIME PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• For the crust: Put the graham crackers and most of the macadamia nuts in the bowl of a food processor and process until smooth. Add the butter and sugar and process again to combine. Press into a pie pan and bake until golden and set, about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly while you make the filling.
• For the filling: In the bowl of a stand mixer, add the lime zest and juice and egg yolks and mix until combined. Add the condensed milk and mix on high until smooth and thick. Pour the mixture into the crust and bake until no longer jiggly, about 15 minutes. Allow to cool, then refrigerate for at least 1 hour, more if possible.
• For the topping: Pour the cold heavy cream into a clean mixer bowl. Add the sugar and beat on high speed until the whipped cream is very stiff.
• Slice the kiwis and cover the surface of the cooled pie with the slices. Spread the whipped cream on top. Slice the remaining kiwi slices in half and decorate the top of the pie with them. Chop the remaining macadamia nuts, sprinkle on top and serve.

BEN & JERRY'S CREAMY FRESH KIWI ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Peel the kiwifruit either with a vegetable peeler or knife and mash them in a bowl until pureed.
• Stir 2 tablespoons sugar into the fruit, cover, and refrigerate 1 hour.
• Whisk the eggs in a mixing bowl until light and fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk in 1 cup sugar, a little at a time, then continue whisking until completely blended, about 1 minute more.
• Pour in the cream and whisk to blend.
• After 1 hour cooling in the refrigerator, stir the kiwifruit into the egg, sugar, and cream mixture.
• Transfer the mixture to an ice-cream maker and freeze following the manufacturer's instructions. Ingredient Note: Though in the United States kiwifruit has been known to be called ​kiwi, kiwifruit was, in fact, the fruit's full marketed name. Native to north-central and eastern China, kiwifruit was originally called Chinese gooseberries. But in the 1960s in an effort to market the juicy, green fruit in the west, kiwifruit farmers in New Zealand renamed their fruit to represent their country using the name kiwi , which is the name of the New Zealand national bird as well as a common nickname for New Zealanders themselves.

KIWI LIME PIE

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 375°F. Place the flax and water in a small bowl and stir with a teaspoon. Set aside.
• In a food processor, grind the graham crackers and oats into fine crumbs. Transfer to a separate bowl.
• Using a clean coffee grinder, grind the pumpkin seeds. Add to the graham cracker mixture. Add the flax mixture and stir until a coarse meal forms. Press into the bottom and up the sides of an 8 x 8-inch pie plate.
• In a large bowl, place the condensed milk, egg yolks, and lime zest and juice. Whisk well, until a thick, creamlike mixture forms. Pour over the unbaked graham crust and smooth the top with a rubber spatula.
• Bake 12 to 15 minutes, until the edges are firm but the center still jiggles when you shake the pan. Remove from the oven and let cool 30 minutes. Decorate with kiwi slices. When the pie is fairly cool, cover with plastic wrap and chill for at least 1 hour, or up to 8 hours, before serving.

KIWI CREAM PIE

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl combine crushed vanilla wafers, cinnamon, and melted butter or margarine. Press into a 9 inch pie plate to form a firm, even crust. Chill the crust for 1 hour.
• In the meantime, in a small saucepan soften gelatin in cold water, then cook and stir over medium heat until gelatin is dissolved. Cool completely.
• In a large bowl, beat together yogurt, sugar, and lemon juice; stir in the cooled gelatin mixture. Chill until partially set.
• Beat the first 1/2 cup of whipping cream until soft peaks forms and then fold it into the gelatin mixture. Chill till mixture mounds when spooned. Turn into chilled crust. Cover and chill several hours or till set.
• Just before serving, arrange kiwi around the edges of the pie. Beat the second 1/2 cup of whipping cream until soft peaks form and spoon into the center of the pie; garnish with remaining kiwi slices.

FRUIT AND CREAM PIE II

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Mix flour and salt together. Pour milk, sugar and oil into one measuring cup, and add all at once to flour. Stir until mixed. Pat dough onto the bottom and sides of a 2 quart casserole dish.
• Spread fruit filling over dough and sprinkle with cinnamon. In a medium bowl, combine eggs, sour cream and vanilla. Mix until smooth and pour over fruit filling. Sprinkle top with cinnamon.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 45 to 60 minutes, or until topping is set. Allow to cool and store in the refrigerator.

KIWI-CREAM CHEESE TART

Steps:

• For crust:
• Blend flour, sugar and salt in processor. Add butter. Using on/off turns, process until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add 1 tablespoon ice water and blend until moist clumps form. Add more water by teaspoonfuls if dough is dry. Transfer dough to floured surface. Gently knead nuts into dough. Press dough onto bottom and up sides of 9-inch-diameter tart pan with removable bottom. Freeze crust 20 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 375°F. Line crust with foil; fill with dried beans or pie weights. Bake crust until sides begin to set, about 15 minutes. Remove foil and beans. Bake crust until cooked through and pale golden, piercing with fork if crust bubbles, about 10 minutes longer. Cool crust completely.
• For filling:
• Using electric mixer, beat cream cheese, sugar, lime juice and lime peel in large bowl until smooth and fluffy. Beat whipping cream in medium bowl until firm peaks form. Fold into cream cheese mixture. Spoon filling into crust; smooth top with knife. Refrigerate until firm, at least 2 hours.
• Arrange kiwis in concentric circles atop filling, overlapping slightly. (Can be prepared up to 4 hours ahead. Cover with plastic and refrigerate.) Cut tart into wedges and serve.
