MINI LEMON MERINGUE TARTS



Mini Lemon Meringue Tarts image

These lemon tarts have a light-textured filling and aren't overly sweet. This is a great recipe if you have left over buttermilk to use up. A nice, quick tart made even quicker if you use frozen tart shells. Store tarts in the refrigerator once called.

Time 45m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 11

24 (2 inch) frozen tart shells, thawed
4 eggs, separated
1 ¼ cups white sugar, divided
¼ cup butter, melted and cooled
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 lemon, zested
1 ½ cups buttermilk, shaken
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 pinch salt
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon cream of tartar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Arrange tart shells on a baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until heated through, about 5 minutes. Remove from the oven; leave oven on.
  • Whisk egg yolks, 3/4 cup sugar, butter, lemon juice, and zest together in a medium bowl. Whisk in buttermilk. Add flour and salt; whisk well.
  • Pour filling into the tart shells, filling them almost to the top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until filling rises and appears set, about 15 minutes. Watch carefully to avoid overcooking.
  • Prepare meringue while the tarts are baking. Beat egg whites with an electric mixer on high speed until frothy. Add remaining 1/2 cup sugar and cream of tartar; continue beating until meringue is stiff and shiny.
  • Top baked tarts with meringue. Ensure that you press the meringue down to form a seal around the edges.
  • Return tarts to oven and bake until meringue starts to brown, about 10 minutes more. Let cool before serving.

LEMON TARTLETS WITH MERINGUE CAPS



Lemon Tartlets with Meringue Caps image

Categories     Cookies     Bake     Lemon     Pastry

Yield Makes about 20

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
2/3 cup confectioners' sugar, sifted
5 large egg whites, room temperature
1/2 cup sifted all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup granulated sugar
Lemon Curd (Page 339)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325°F. With an electric mixer on medium-high speed, beat butter and confectioners' sugar until pale and fluffy. Mix in 2 egg whites, 1 at a time. Mix in flour and vanilla.
  • Spoon 1 scant teaspoon batter onto a rimmed baking sheet lined with a nonstick baking mat. Using the back of a spoon, spread into a 3-inch circle. Repeat 3 times. Bake until golden, 10 to 12 minutes. Immediately transfer cookies, 1 at a time, to inverted small brioche molds; gently press to shape. Let set, about 30 seconds. Repeat with remaining batter, baking 4 at a time. If cookies become too cool to shape, return them to oven for 20 seconds. Shells can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 3 days. Reduce heat to 200°F.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer set over (not in) a pan of simmering water, whisk remaining 3 egg whites and the granulated sugar until whites are warm to the touch and sugar has dissolved. Attach bowl to mixer; beat on medium until foamy, then raise speed to high and beat until stiff peaks form and meringue is cool, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a pastry bag fitted with a 7/16-inch star tip (such as Ateco #825). Pipe twenty 1 1/4-inch diameter, 2-inch high spirals onto parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing about 1 inch apart. Bake 20 minutes. Reduce heat to 150°F. Bake until dry but not brown, about 2 hours more. Transfer to a wire rack; let cool completely. Meringue caps can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 3 days.
  • To serve, spoon 2 teaspoons lemon curd into each shell. Top each with a meringue cap.

Yield Makes 6

Number Of Ingredients 4

All-purpose flour, for dusting
1/2 recipe Pate Sucree for Walnut Pie
Lemon Curd for Lemon Meringue Cupcakes
Mile-High Meringue Topping

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place six 3 1/4-inch tart rings on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet and set aside.
  • On a lightly floured work surface, roll out pate sucree into a 10-by-15-inch rectangle, about 1/8 inch thick. Carefully transfer dough to a baking sheet; chill until firm.
  • Using a 4 1/2-inch round biscuit cutter, cut out six circles from dough and fit each circle into prepared tart rings, pressing crust into bottom and against sides; chill until firm. Trim edges to make even. Line chilled tart shells with parchment paper and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake until bottom of crust is lightly browned, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Remove pie weights and parchment paper; pierce bottom of dough with tines of a fork. Reduce temperature to 325 and continue baking until crust is golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes more. Carefully remove tart rings and transfer tart shells to a wire rack to cool.
  • Fill cooled tart shells with lemon curd. Pipe about 1/4 cup meringue onto the surface of each tartlet in a decorative pattern. Transfer tartlets to freezer until chilled.
  • Using a kitchen torch, toast meringue, moving flame back and forth until evenly browned, or place tartlets under a preheated broiler for 1 to 2 minutes to brown.

Categories     dessert

Time 2h

Yield 4 tartlets

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup blanched almonds
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 stick cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces, plus more for the pans
1 cup sugar
2 tablespoons finely grated lemon zest (from 2 lemons)
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice (from about 4 lemons)
1/3 cup fresh orange juice (from 1 orange)
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 large egg plus 3 egg yolks
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces
3 tablespoons limoncello or other lemon-flavored liqueur
3 large egg whites
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
7 tablespoons sugar

Steps:

  • Make the crusts: Pulse the flour, almonds, sugar and salt in a food processor until the nuts are finely ground. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture looks like coarse meal. Add 3 tablespoons ice water and pulse until the dough starts coming together. Turn the dough out onto a piece of plastic wrap, pat into a disk and wrap in the plastic. Refrigerate until cold but still malleable, about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Lightly butter four 4-inch tart pans with removable bottoms. Divide the prepared dough into 4 pieces, then press into the bottom and up the side of each prepared pan. Freeze until firm, about 10 minutes, then use a paring knife to trim the excess pastry.
  • Place the tart shells on a baking sheet, line each with foil and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake until golden around the edges, about 20 minutes. Remove the foil and weights and continue baking until the crusts are golden brown all over, 5 to 10 more minutes. Let cool, then carefully loosen the crusts but leave in the pans on the baking sheet.
  • Meanwhile, make the filling: Whisk the sugar, lemon zest, lemon juice, orange juice, cornstarch and 1/4 cup water in a medium saucepan until smooth. Whisk in the whole egg and egg yolks. Cook over medium heat, whisking, until the mixture simmers, about 5 minutes. Add the butter and limoncello and continue whisking over medium heat until thick like pudding, 4 to 6 more minutes. Spoon the curd into the prepared crusts.
  • Make the meringue: Beat the egg whites in a medium bowl with a mixer on medium speed until foamy, about 1 minute. Sprinkle in the cream of tartar and continue beating until soft peaks form, about 3 minutes. Gradually beat in the sugar and beat until stiff shiny peaks form, 4 to 5 more minutes. Transfer the meringue to a pastry bagfitted with a star tip and pipe onto the tarts. Bake at 375 degrees F until the meringue is set and golden, about 15 minutes. Let cool completely before unmolding.
