Summer Fruit Tart With Buttermilk Cream Recipes

BEAUTIFUL SUMMER FRUIT TART

Steps:

• Mix water and vanilla extract together in a small bowl.
• Stir 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons flour, sugar, and salt together in a medium bowl. Cut in butter until mixture forms fine crumbs. Do not overmix, or pastry will be tough. Stir in enough vanilla water to pull dough together. Chill for 15 minutes.
• Roll dough out into a 12-inch circle. Gently transfer to an 11-inch tart pan. Pat dough into place, cutting off edges and aligning pastry along the edges of the pan. Freeze pastry shell until firm, at least 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Bake pastry shell in the preheated oven until lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Prick any large bubbles with the tip of a knife. Allow to cool completely.
• Meanwhile, make the filling. Beat cream in a chilled glass or metal bowl with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Beat sugar, cream cheese, and vanilla extract in a separate bowl until smooth. Fold in whipped cream.
• Spread filling into the cooled tart shell, smoothing out to reach the edges. Arrange mandarin oranges, strawberries, kiwi slices, and berries over the top, covering as much of the filling as possible. Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator.

SUMMER FRUIT CREAM TART

Steps:

• Add cookies with cream filling into a food processor and crush until finely ground. Transfer crumbs to a medium bowl, add melted butter and mix until crumbs are evenly moistened. Press the mixture onto the bottom and up the sides of a 9 or 9,5-inch (23/24cm) tart pan (or another pan with removable bottom). Place in the fridge or freezer for at least 15 minutes to firm up while you make the filling.
• Add the fruits into a blender and blend until smooth. Add vegan cream cheese, coconut sugar and vanilla and blend until smooth. Set aside.
• In a mixing bowl, whip up the cold non-dairy whipping cream using an electric hand mixer, until stiff peaks form. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• In a small saucepan, stir the agar-agar into the non-dairy milk. Bring to a boil and cook for about 2 minutes or according to the package instructions. Remove from heat and let cool slightly, stirring occasionally. (If using gelatin, you can skip this step. Read recipe notes*).
• Gently fold the agar-agar mixture into the fruit purée mixture, then fold in the whipped cream. Stir just until combined. Fill the mixture into the prepared tart pan, smoothing out evenly, and refrigerate for 4 hours at least or better overnight to firm up.
• When the mousse is firm, you can remove the tart by gently pressing against the removable bottom of your pan. Decorate your tart with fruits or other toppings, and serve chilled.
• Enjoy! ????

SUMMER FRUIT TART WITH BUTTERMILK CREAM

• On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to 1/4 inch thick. Gently press dough into a 9-inch square tart pan with a removable bottom. Trim dough flush with top edge of pan. Refrigerate until cold, about 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Prick bottom of dough all over with a fork. Line with parchment; fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake until edges are golden, 15 to 17 minutes. Remove parchment and weights; continue baking until surface is golden, about 20 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack. Remove tart shell from pan.
• Beat heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold into pastry cream; pour into tart shell. Arrange fruit on top of cream in concentric squares. Refrigerate.
• Meanwhile, heat jelly with 2 tablespoons water in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring, until thinned, about 2 minutes. Pass through a fine sieve into a small bowl. Brush glaze over figs.

Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine pineapple juice, granulated sugar, cornstarch and lemon juice. Bring to a boil over medium heat; cook and stir until thickened, about 2 minutes. Cool., Arrange berries over cream cheese layer; brush with pineapple mixture. Refrigerate 1 hour before serving.

FRESH SUMMER FRUIT TART

Steps:

• Crust:.
• Mix together the flour and brown sugar in a food processor (or mix by hand). Add butter and pulse until mixture resembles coarse crumbs (or cut butter in by hand). Add the water slowly while running the processor (or sprinkle and toss while mixing by hand) until moistened. Form into a ball, and press firmly and evenly onto the bottom and up the sides of a 9 inch tart pan or pie plate. Bake in a 400 degree oven for 10 - 15 minutes or until light brown. Cool completely.
• Cream filing:.
• In a medium mixing bowl stir together cream cheese, sour cream, sugar, and vanilla till smooth. Cover and chill for up to 4 hours or till ready to fill tart shell.
• Assemble tart:.
• Sprinkle mint onto pastry. Using a spoon, spread cream filling evenly over the tart shell. Arrange fresh fruit on the filling. In a small saucepan heat jam just till melted. Cool. Drizzle melted jam over the fruit. Cut into wedges and serve immediately. Best if used within a day or two.

EASY SUMMER FRUIT TART

Steps:

• For the shell: pulse dry ingredients in food processor to combine. Add butter and pulse until pea sized crumbs form -- don't process too much. Pour in water gradually until dough forms into a ball. Turn out and roll into a circle about 15 inches in diameter. Move to cookie sheet lined in parchment paper. Fold over/pleat outer edge of the dough about 3/4 inch. Line the inside of the dough with a piece of foil, and add rice or beans or pie weights to prevent the crust from bubbling during baking. Bake at 375 for 25-35 minutes until crust is lightly browned. You can remove the foil/blind bake rig after 10 minutes.
• For the filling - combine the ingredients and whip/beat in stand mixer until fluffy.
• For the glaze -1/2 cup whatever kind of jelly melted in the microwave for ~30 seconds. Clearer colors are best. I used Rosé wine gelée from Whole Foods.
• To assemble - let the shell cool to room temperature and then spread the filling inside the shell. Arrange fruit. Brush on glaze. Eat ASAP!

SUMMER FRUIT & MASCARPONE TART

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Unroll 1 pastry sheet, but leave it on the parchment. Place it on a baking tray, dust with 2 tbsp icing sugar, then cover with another sheet of parchment and another baking tray. Pour baking beans into the tray to weigh it down, or use empty cans. Bake for 30 mins, then check if the pastry is golden all over. If not, return for another 5 mins or so. Repeat with the other pastry sheet (or cook both together if you have enough trays). Once out of the oven, trim the edges with a large, sharp knife. Leave to cool.
• Softly whip the mascarpone, cream, vanilla and remaining icing sugar, then transfer half to a disposable piping bag fitted with a 1.5cm round nozzle (or just snip off the corner). Pipe blobs of the mascarpone cream over the surface of one piece of pastry, right up to the edges. Top with half the fruit and dust with a little icing sugar.
• Top with the second piece of pastry, more mascarpone cream (refilling the bag when you need to), the remaining fruit, a dusting of icing sugar and, finally, some mint leaves. Use a serrated knife to cut through the layers without squashing the whole tart. Best served within an hour or two, but leftovers will keep for up to two days in the fridge.
