Passover Fruit Crisp With Coco Loconut Topping Recipes

PASSOVER FRUIT CRISP

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F. In medium bowl, stir cake meal, 1/3 cup sugar, the almonds, cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg until well mixed. Cut in butter, using pastry blender or fork, until mixture looks like fine crumbs. Pour hot fruit mixture into ungreased 1 1/2-quart casserole. Sprinkle evenly with topping.

PASSOVER FRUIT CRISP WITH COCO-LOCONUT TOPPING

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl, toss farfel with heated honey. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in frying pan, and add honey farfel mixture. Fry until browned.
• Mix matzo meal, ground almonds, brown sugar, 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ground cloves, and remaining butter in a food processor and pulse until clumpy crumbs form. Stir in walnuts and farfel/honey mixture and set topping aside until needed. Can be made 1 to 2 days ahead, covered and refrigerated.
• Preheat oven to 375 to 400 degrees F.
• Combine sliced fruit, potato starch, sugar, vanilla extract, and ground ginger in a large bowl and toss to coat. Transfer mixture to 8 by 8 by 2 inch baking dish (glass or other). Fruit should be generously mounded as volume shrinks during baking. Sprinkle topping over fruit mixture until covered.
• Bake until the crisp is bubbling in center, fruit is tender, and topping is golden brown, approximately 45 to 60 minutes. Let cool for 15 minutes.
• Spoon warm crisp into individual bowls and top with coco-loconut topping. Garnish each portion with mint sprig.
• Place a large bowl and whisk in freezer 15 minutes before beating topping. Open cans and carefully skim thick cream from the can. You can use a colander to drain liquid.
• Remove frozen bowl, add all ingredients, and then begin whisking. Whisk until thickened, and able to thickly coat the back of a spoon. Refrigerate covered until needed.

FRUIT CRISP TOPPING

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, mix the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. With a food processor, pastry blender or your fingers, work the butter into the flour mixture just until it comes together and large clumps form. Fold nuts into the mixture. Chill until ready to use.
• Cook's Note: Crisp topping can be refrigerated up to a week or frozen for up to 2 months.
