Raspberry Brown Butter Tart Recipes

RASPBERRY CRUMBLE TART

Steps:

• For the cinnamon topping: In a medium bowl, combine and mix the flour, cinnamon, salt and dry ginger. Mix in the brown sugar. Stir in the melted butter and work with your fingers until it becomes like wet sand. Transfer the topping to a baking sheet, breaking it into smallish pieces, and refrigerate while you prepare the rest of the tart.
• For the tart dough: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. In the bowl of a food processor, combine the flour, granulated sugar and salt and pulse to blend. Add the butter and pulse a few times. Add the egg yolks and pulse until everything is blended. Do not overwork or your dough will be tough. Flatten onto a piece of plastic wrap and refrigerate. When chilled and workable, place on a piece of parchment paper, top the dough with the raisins, fold the dough in half over the raisins and roll to about 3/4-inch thickness. Transfer to a greased 9-inch round pie dish. The raisins will sink into the dough as you roll it. Cover with a layer of parchment or tinfoil and weigh down the crust with some pie beans.
• Bake the tart shell until light brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the pie beans and parchment and set aside to cool. Lower the oven to 350 degrees F.
• For the filling: In a medium bowl, combine the raspberries with the jam and lemon zest. In a small bowl, combine the lemon juice with the brown sugar and cornstarch and mix until smooth. Pour over the raspberries. Toss gently to mix the ingredients without crushing the raspberries.
• Spoon the raspberry filling over the crust and top with an even layer of cinnamon topping. Place in the center of the oven and bake until the topping looks fully baked and the fruit juicy, 30 to 45 minutes. Set aside to cool before slicing.

RASPBERRY BROWN BUTTER TART

Steps:

• Position a rack in the lower third of the oven; preheat oven to 350°F.
• Unfold pastry on a lightly floured surface and roll it out to a rough 12-inch square.
• Fit into a 9-inch fluted tart pan with removable bottom.
• Trim the dough even with the top of the pan.
• Refrigerate dough in pan.
• In a small heavy saucepan, melt butter over high heat, then cook for 8-10 minutes, until golden brown and has a nutty aroma. (NOTE: When cooking the butter after melting, it would be a good idea to turn down the heat a bit and cover pan with a lid! I learned this the hard way. Also be attentive in making sure the butter does not burn).
• Meanwhile, in a medium size bowl whisk eggs and granulated sugar until well blended.
• Whisk in the flour.
• Gradually whisk in the browned butter.
• Finally, whisk in the vanilla until combined.
• Scatter berries evenly over the bottom of the tart shell.
• Slowly pour the browned butter mixture evenly over the berries.

• Let tart cool completely on a wire rack.
• Serve at room temp, or refrigerate and serve chilled.
• Right before serving, dust top of tart generously with confectioners sugar, if desired.

RUSTIC RASPBERRY TART

Steps:

RASPBERRY AND BROWN SUGAR CUSTARD TART

Steps:

• Blend 1 1/4 cups flour and 1/2 teaspoon salt in processor. Add chilled butter; using on/off turns, process until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add 3 tablespoons ice water and process until moist clumps form, adding more water by teaspoonfuls if mixture is dry. Gather dough into ball; flatten into disk. Wrap in plastic and chill at least 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 375°F. Roll out dough on lightly floured surface to 12-inch round. Transfer to 9-inch-diameter tart pan with removable bottom. Trim dough overhang to 1/2 inch. Fold overhang in, forming double-thick sides. Freeze crust 15 minutes. Bake until crust is golden, about 40 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F.
• Line warm tart shell with raspberries. Whisk remaining 2 tablespoons flour and brown sugar in medium bowl to blend. Whisk in eggs, melted butter, and cream. Scrape in seeds from vanilla bean; discard bean. Pour enough filling over raspberries to fill crust to just below edge (discard any remaining filling). Place tart pan on baking sheet. Bake until custard is set, puffed, and golden, about 35 minutes. Cool at least 3 hours; serve at room temperature. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and store at room temperature.)

MOTHER'S RASPBERRY TART

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In the bowl of a food processor, combine the flour, salt and brown sugar and pulse to combine. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Add the egg yolks and continue to pulse until the mixture pulls away from the sides of the bowl.
• Press the dough into the bottom and about 1/2 inch up the sides of a buttered 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom. Bake until light brown, about 25 to 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool on a wire rack.
• Select 10 pretty raspberries for garnishing the cake and set them aside. Place the rest of the raspberries with their juice in a saucepan and add the granulated sugar. Cook over medium heat, stirring, until the mixture boils. Combine the cornstarch with 1 tablespoon water and stir it into the boiling fruit. Cook, stirring, until the mixture thickens slightly, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• Remove the rim of the tart pan and pour the fruit into the cooled shell. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for several hours or until set. Garnish with the reserved berries and serve with whipped cream, if desired.
