Vanilla Bean Pineapple Tart Recipes

LATTICE-TOPPED VANILLA BEAN PINEAPPLE TART

Steps:

• On a lightly floured surface, roll each disk of crostata dough into a 9-by-12-inch rectangle, 1/8 inch thick. Place 1 rectangle on a parchment-lined baking sheet, and freeze until firm, about 30 minutes. Fit the other rectangle into an 8-by-11-inch fluted rectangular tart pan with a removable bottom. Trim dough flush with top edge of pan. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• Make the lattice: Remove baking sheet from freezer. Using a clean ruler as a guide, cut dough rectangle into eighteen 1/2-inch-wide strips using a sharp knife or a fluted pastry wheel. Lay 9 strips of dough on another baking sheet in pairs of parallel lines that extend slightly past the length of the tart pan. Starting in the center, weave 1 new strip under and over the strips on the baking sheet. Weave a second strip inch away, this time weaving over then under. Repeat, weaving pairs of strips across half of the tart, spacing pairs 1 inch apart. (If dough strips become too soft, return to freezer until firm.) Return to center, and repeat with remaining dough strips to form a lattice pattern. Freeze until ready to use.
• Cut each pineapple quarter crosswise into 1/3-inch-thick slices. Combine sugars, vanilla seeds and pod, and lemon juice in a large saute pan. Add pineapple, and cook over medium heat, stirring until sugars dissolve and mixture becomes saucy, about 3 minutes. Add rum, and simmer until pineapple has softened and almost all of the liquid has evaporated, about 20 minutes. Remove from heat, and let cool in pan. Discard vanilla pod.
• Remove tart pan from refrigerator. Spread pineapple mixture evenly on dough. Combine yolk and cream in a small bowl, and brush some along top edges of tart. Carefully slide frozen lattice onto tart, centering it over filling, and press edges to seal. Trim excess dough. Brush top of lattice with egg wash. Refrigerate, uncovered, until firm, about 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Bake tart for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 375 degrees, and continue baking until crust is golden and filling is bubbling, 40 to 45 minutes. (If crust browns too quickly, tent edges with foil.) Let cool in tart pan on a wire rack. Unmold, and serve immediately.

VANILLA BEAN AND RASPBERRY TART

Steps:

• In large bowl, mix flour, 1/2 cup sugar, the salt, lemon peel and vanilla bean seeds. Beat in butter with electric mixer on medium speed until mixture looks like small peas. In small bowl, beat egg yolks and 1/4 cup limoncello with whisk. Slowly beat egg mixture into butter mixture. Turn off mixer as soon as dough comes together. Roll into a ball, and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate 1 hour.
• Heat oven to 425°F. On lightly floured work surface, roll dough into circle big enough to fit in 9-inch tart pan. Place in ungreased pan. Bake about 20 minutes or until crust is golden brown. Cool completely.
• To make filling, in large bowl, beat mascarpone, cream, limoncello, sugar, lemon peel, and vanilla bean seeds in electric mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form.
• Spread filling in cooled crust. Arrange raspberries on top. Melt jelly in small microwavable bowl uncovered in 20-second intervals, until it melts completely. Brush jelly over raspberries with pastry brush.

WHITE PINEAPPLE COBBLER WITH VANILLA BEAN ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Combine the butter and sugar in a small mixing bowl with a paddle attachment. Beat on medium speed until light and fluffy. Add 1 egg and scrape down the side of bowl. Beat on low speed and add the remaining 2 eggs and vanilla extract. Add the flour all at once and beat until just combined. Remove from bowl and press down to form a 1/2-inch-thick disk of dough. Place in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before working with it.
• To make the strussel, cream together the butter and sugars until smooth and light. Rub in the flour until it resembles a coarse pea shape. Add in the nuts and rub until everything comes together. Store in refrigerator until ready to use or up to 4 weeks.
• For the filling, melt the butter in a saute pan and add all of the spices. Peel and core the pineapple and cut into bite size pieces. Add the pineapple to the spice mixture and saute until all the juices start to blend together. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
• Roll the sugar dough to about 1/8-inch thick and place into a greased tart pan. Fill with the cooled pineapple filling and cover with the strussel. Bake for approximately 20 minutes or until golden brown.
• Serve with 2 scoops of vanilla bean ice cream.

VANILLA BEAN-PINEAPPLE TART

Steps:

• Make the crust: Pulse flour, sugar, and salt in a food processor until combined. Add butter, and process just until mixture resembles coarse meal. Drizzle with the ice water, and pulse until mixture just begins to hold together. Shape dough into 2 disks. Wrap each in plastic, and refrigerate 1 hour or up to 3 days.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll out each disk of dough to a 12-by-9-inch rectangle, 1/8 inch thick. Place 1 rectangle on a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet, and refrigerate or freeze until firm, 30 minutes. Fit other rectangle into an 11-by-8-inch rectangular tart pan with a removable bottom. Trim dough flush with rim. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• Make the lattice: Using a clean ruler as a guide, cut chilled rectangle into eighteen 1/2-inch-wide strips with a sharp knife or pastry wheel. Lay 9 strips of dough on another parchment-lined baking sheet in pairs of parallel lines slightly longer than tart pan. Starting in center, weave 1 new strip under and over strips on baking sheet. Weave a second strip 1/4 inch away, this time over, then under. Repeat, weaving pairs of strips across half of tart, spacing pairs 1 inch apart. (If strips become too soft, return to freezer until firm.) Return to center, and repeat with remaining strips to form lattice pattern. Freeze until ready to use.
• Make the filling: Cut each pineapple quarter crosswise into 1/3-inch-thick slices. Combine sugars, vanilla seeds and pod, and lemon juice in a large sauté pan. Add pineapple, and cook over medium heat, stirring until sugars dissolve and mixture becomes saucy, about 3 minutes. Add rum, and simmer until pineapple has softened and almost all liquid has evaporated, about 20 minutes. Let cool in pan. Discard vanilla pod.
• Spread pineapple mixture evenly in shell. Combine yolk and cream, and brush along top edges of tart. Carefully slide frozen lattice onto tart, centering it; press edges to seal. Trim excess dough. Brush top of lattice with egg wash. Refrigerate or freeze, uncovered, until firm, about 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 400°F. Transfer tart to a rimmed baking sheet. Bake 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 375°F, and bake until crust is golden and filling is bubbling, 40 to 45 minutes more. (If crust browns too quickly, tent with foil.) Let cool completely in pan on a wire rack.

PINEAPPLE TARTS RECIPE - (4.5/5)

Steps:

• 1. For fresh pineapples, remove the skin and cut them into chunks for easy blending. If you are using canned pineapple slices instead, drain and squeeze away excess liquid with your hands. Blend pineapples just enough till mushy. 2. Add blended pineapple and sugar into a non-stick saucepan. Stir well and cook under medium low heat, stirring frequently with a wooden spoon to prevent burning. This process will take a while, It will be ready when most of the liquid has evaporated and the paste turns golden. Transfer pineapple paste to a large bowl and let it cool in the fridge. 3. In the meantime, make the pastry. Sieve flour, icing sugar, salt and cornstarch in a large mixing bowl. Add in softened butter into flour mixture. Gently rub butter into the flour with your fingertips until mixture appears like fine crumbs. Add in egg yolks and vanilla bean paste. Gently mix the dough till the ingredients begin to combine. Turn it out onto a work surface and knead to form a dough.The dough is ready when it does not stick to your hand. Add a little butter if it is too dry. Shape dough into a ball and wrap it in a plastic wrap and chill it for 30 minutes before using. 4. Roll cooled pineapple paste into 30 or 40 equal balls, depending on the size of the pineapple tart that you are aiming to make. Firm the pineapple balls in the fridge if you have time. 5. Likewise, divide dough into 30 or 40 equal balls. You can use a kitchen scale for higher accuracy. Flatten dough ball with your fingers and place the pineapple ball in the middle. Carefully wrap the pineapple paste with the dough and shape it into your preferred pineapple tart design. 6. Preheat oven to 180C. Transfer the pineapple tarts onto a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Combine egg yolk and condensed milk in a bowl and brush the tarts with egg wash. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or till tart turns light brown. Allow tarts to cool before digging into it! Enjoy!
