GLUTEN-FREE, VEGAN CRANBERRY-ALMOND TARTLETS



Gluten-Free, Vegan Cranberry-Almond Tartlets image

These tartlets are the perfect way to please everyone at the table on Thanksgiving. As with most vegan and gluten-free tarts, they're best served the day they're made, but you can press the crusts and freeze them ahead of time to give yourself a head start. The toasted-almond milk for the filling and the cranberry topping can be made up to 3 days in advance. Just bake the crusts and cook the filling the day you're serving the tartlets.

Time 3h5m

Yield Ten 3-inch tartlets

Number Of Ingredients 19

3/4 cup rolled oats (see Cook's Notes)
3/4 cup whole toasted almonds (see Cook's Notes)
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons oat flour
6 tablespoons brown rice flour
1/4 cup melted extra-virgin coconut oil, plus more for the pans
6 tablespoons maple syrup
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
3/4 cup whole toasted almonds
1/3 cup maple syrup
1 tablespoon agar flakes
Pinch sea salt
2 teaspoons arrowroot
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
2 cups fresh or frozen cranberries
1/4 cup fresh orange juice
3 tablespoons maple syrup
Pinch cinnamon
1 teaspoon arrowroot

Steps:

  • For the crust: Process the rolled oats, almonds and salt in a food processor until finely ground. Transfer the mixture to a medium bowl, and stir in the oat flour and brown rice flour. Drizzle in the coconut oil, and mix well. Add the maple syrup and vanilla, then stir to combine. (The dough will be quite wet.) Cover the bowl, and set aside for 30 to 60 minutes or until the dough is moist but no longer sticky.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Thoroughly oil ten 3-inch tartlet pans, and press the dough evenly into each, trimming excess dough from the edges. Prick the bottoms with a fork several times, place the tart pans on a baking sheet and bake until golden and fragrant, 20 to 22 minutes. Let cool.
  • For the filling: Line a medium strainer with a thin kitchen towel or several layers of cheesecloth, and place it over a medium pot; set aside. Blend 2 1/2 cups water and the almonds in a blender until smooth. Pour the almond milk through the lined strainer into a pot. Gather the edges of the cloth, and gently squeeze out the milk; discard the dry pulp that remains. Add the maple syrup, agar flakes and salt to the almond milk, and whisk to combine. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, whisking every minute or so. Cover the pot, reduce the heat to low and simmer until all the agar is dissolved, about 15 minutes. Combine the arrowroot with 1 tablespoon water, and slowly drizzle the mixture into the simmering liquid. When the liquid returns to a simmer, remove the pot from the heat and whisk in the vanilla.
  • Carefully remove the crusts from the pans. Pour 1/4 cup of the warm filling into each tart shell. Place the tartlets on a flat tray, set aside until the filling has stopped steaming, then refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or until ready to serve.
  • For the topping: Bring the cranberries, orange juice, maple syrup and cinnamon to a boil in a small pot. Stir the mixture, cover the pot, reduce the heat to low and simmer for until the cranberries are soft, 5 minutes. Dissolve the arrowroot in 2 teaspoons water, and slowly drizzle the arrowroot mixture into the cranberry mixture. Remove the pan from the heat once the mixture has returned to a simmer. Let cool. Top each tartlet with a spoonful of the cranberry mixture, and serve.

CRANBERRY-ALMOND TARTS



Cranberry-Almond Tarts image

This recipe for cranberry-almond tarts is from New York City's How Sweet It Is bakery.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Pie & Tarts Recipes

Yield Makes 30 tarts

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 recipe Almond Tart Dough
All-purpose flour, for work surface
Frangipane for Cranberry-Almond Tarts
1 pound fresh cranberries
1 cup sliced, blanched almonds, toasted
Caramel for Cranberry-Almond Tarts

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Place one disk of dough on a floured work surface, sprinkle dough with flour, and roll out to 1/4 inch thick. Cut out 25 to 30 circles using a 2 1/4-inch round cutter, re-rolling dough once if necessary. Place each circle in a 1 3/4-inch nonstick petit four brioche mold, gently pressing down on the bottom and sides. Place filled molds on a baking sheet; transfer to a freezer for 20 minutes.
  • Transfer baking sheet to oven and bake tart shells until golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Transfer tart shells, in their molds, to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Place frangipane in pastry bag fitted with a small, plain round tip. Fill each tart shell with 1/4 teaspoon frangipane. Place tart shells, in their molds, on a baking sheet and transfer to oven. Bake until frangipane springs back when touched with your fingertip, 15 to 17 minutes. Transfer tart shells to a cooling rack; let cool completely.
  • In a large bowl, mix together cranberries, almonds, and enough caramel to hold cranberries and almonds together, about 1 cup. Remove almond tarts from their molds and place on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Spoon cranberry mixture on top of frangipane; transfer to oven and bake until cranberries just begin to pop, 6 to 8 minutes. Drizzle with caramel and serve.

CRANBERRY-TANGERINE SAUCE WITH APPLES & ALMONDS



Cranberry-Tangerine Sauce With Apples & Almonds image

This is my favorite cranberry sauce from "Fruit Cookbook" by Nicole Routhier. My sister and I both love cranberry sauce and try out two new recipes every Thanksgiving. This year I'm not going to bother, since this is the only one I like to eat plain (with a spoon)! The tangerines give it a wonderful flavor, even better than oranges and combine great with the Granny apple.

Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

For pastry dough:
1/8 cup whole raw almonds (1/4 pound), toasted and cooled
2 cups all-purpose flour, divided
1 1/4 sticks unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1 large egg, lightly beaten, divided
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon pure almond extract
2 teaspoons grated lemon zest
1/2 teaspoon salt
For filling and assembly:
2 1/2 cups fresh or frozen cranberries (10 ounces)
1/4 cup fresh orange juice
1/2 cup sweet orange marmalade
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
Equipment: a 9-inch springform pan; a pastry wheel or pizza cutter

Steps:

  • Make dough:
  • Pulse almonds with 1/4 cup flour until finely ground (be careful not to grind to a paste).
  • Beat together butter and brown sugar with an electric mixer at medium speed until pale and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Reserve 1 tablespoon beaten egg, chilled, for egg wash and beat remaining egg into butter mixture, then add vanilla and almond extracts, beating well. At low speed, mix in almond mixture, zest, salt, and remaining 1 3/4 cups flour until mixture just forms a dough.
  • Halve dough and form each half into a 5- to 6-inch disk. Wrap disks separately in plastic wrap and chill until firm, at least 30 minutes.
  • Make filling:
  • Bring cranberries, orange juice, marmalade, brown sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon salt to a boil in a heavy medium pot, stirring, then simmer, uncovered, until some of cranberries burst and mixture is slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Cool filling quickly by spreading it in a shallow baking pan and chilling until lukewarm, about 15 minutes.
  • Bake crostata:
  • Preheat oven to 375°F with a foil-lined large baking sheet on middle rack. Generously butter springform pan.
  • Roll out 1 piece of dough between sheets of parchment paper into a 12-inch round (dough will be very tender). Remove top sheet of paper and invert dough into springform pan. (Dough will tear easily but can be patched together with your fingers.) Press dough over bottom and up side of pan, trimming dough to reach 1/2 inch up side of pan. Chill shell.
  • Roll out remaining dough into a 12-inch round in same manner. Remove top sheet of paper, then cut dough into 10 (1/3-inch-wide) strips with pastry wheel and slide (still on wax paper) onto a tray. Freeze strips until firm, about 10 minutes.
  • Spread filling in chilled shell and arrange 5 strips 1 inch apart on filling. Arrange remaining 5 strips 1 inch apart diagonally across first strips to form a lattice with diamond-shaped spaces. Trim edges of all strips flush with edge of shell. Brush lattice top with reserved beaten egg and sprinkle crostata with granulated sugar.
  • Bake crostata in pan on hot baking sheet until pastry is golden and filling is bubbling, 50 to 60 minutes. (If pastry is too brown after 30 minutes, loosely cover crostata with foil.) Cool crostata completely in pan on a rack, 1 1/2 to 2 hours (to allow juices to thicken).

Tips:

  • Use fresh cranberries for the best flavor. If using frozen cranberries, thaw them completely before using.
  • To make the cutting process easier, chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out.
  • If the dough is too sticky to handle, add a little more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, until it is smooth and pliable.
  • Be careful not to overfill the triangles, or they will burst open during baking.
  • Bake the triangles until they are golden brown and the filling is bubbling.

Conclusion:

Cranberry almond triangles are a delicious and festive treat that are perfect for holiday baking. They are also surprisingly easy to make. With a little planning, you can have these tasty treats ready to enjoy in no time. So next time you are looking for a special holiday treat, give these cranberry almond triangles a try. You won't be disappointed.
