Best 8 Lemon Almond Tuiles Recipes

ALMOND TUILES

Steps:

• Whisk the almond flour, salt and baking soda in a bowl. Beat the butter and sugar in a separate bowl with a mixer until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla until smooth, then mix in the dry ingredients. Refrigerate the dough until firm, about 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with silicone mats or parchment paper. Drop heaping teaspoonfuls of dough about 3 inches apart on the prepared sheets. Bake until golden and crisp, about 8 minutes.
• Let the cookies cool about 2 minutes on the baking sheets. One at a time, gently lift each cookie with an offset spatula. Immediately wrap it around the handle of a wooden spoon to curl. Once it sets, slide the cookie off the handle and let cool on a rack. Repeat with the remaining dough, allowing the baking sheets to cool between batches. (Don't make too many cookies at once; they need to be shaped while still warm.) Serve with sorbet.

SESAME TUILES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Pulse the sugar and 2 tablespoons sesame seeds in a food processor until finely ground.
• Transfer the ground sesame mixture to a medium saucepan and add the butter, orange zest and juice, cornstarch and salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture comes to a simmer and thickens slightly, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl; stir in the flour, vanilla and the remaining 2 tablespoons sesame seeds. Refrigerate until cooled and thickened, about 45 minutes.
• Drop heaping teaspoonfuls of batter, 4 inches apart, onto the prepared baking sheets. Lightly sprinkle the tops with more sesame seeds. Bake, 1 baking sheet at a time, until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Let cool on the baking sheet until just set enough to lift with a spatula, 1 to 2 minutes, then carefully transfer to a rack. While the cookies are still warm, curl up 2 sides of each cookie with your fingers, then let cool completely. Repeat with the remaining batter (reline the baking sheets between batches).

LACY LEMON TUILES

ALMOND TUILES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°F. Coat a heavy baking sheet well with cooking spray or line with parchment paper.
• In a bowl whisk together ground almonds, flour, sugar, and salt and whisk in whites, butter, and almond extract until combined well. Drop rounded teaspoons batter about 4 inches apart onto baking sheet and with back of a spoon spread into 3 1/2-inch rounds. Sprinkle each cookie with about 1/2 tablespoon sliced almonds and bake in middle of oven 8 minutes, or until golden.
• Working quickly, remove cookies, 1 at a time, from baking sheet with a thin spatula and drape over a rolling pin to create a curved shape. (If the cookies become too brittle to form on the rolling pin, return baking sheet to oven a few seconds to allow cookies to soften.) Cool cookies completely on rolling pin and transfer to an airtight container. Make more cookies with remaining batter in same manner, spraying or lining baking sheet for each batch. Tuiles may be made 2 days ahead and kept in an airtight container at room temperature.

LEMON-ALMOND TUILES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F with rack in middle. Line a large baking sheet with liner.
• Whisk together sugar and egg white until sugar has dissolved. Whisk in remaining ingredients until smooth.
• Spoon 1/2 tablespoon of batter for each cookie, 2 inches apart and in staggered rows, on baking sheet (about 6 cookies), spreading with offset spatula into 4-inch-long cookies (straight or curvy). Bake until pale golden, 7 to 8 minutes. Transfer cookies, while still hot, with a spatula to a rack to cool completely, or curl cookies by draping them over a rolling pin to cool.
• Cool sheet and liner before baking more tuiles in same manner.

LEMON-ALMOND BUTTER CAKE

Steps:

• For the curd, combine zest, juice, sugar and eggs in a heatproof bowl, and beat well. Add butter, and place over a saucepan full of simmering water. Cook, stirring constantly with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon, until mixture thickens into curd, about 5 minutes. Strain into a bowl, and press plastic wrap onto surface to keep skin from forming. Refrigerate until cool, at least 1 1/2 hours.
• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease 9-inch spring-form pan with 1 tablespoon butter, and dust with 1 tablespoon flour, shaking out excess.
• With an electric mixer, cream the remaining butter and 1 cup sugar together until light and fluffy. Sift together the remaining flour, baking powder and salt, and stir in. In a separate bowl, whisk eggs until they start to foam. Do not overbeat or the cake will be tough. Add eggs and ground almonds to batter, and mix well.
• Scrape batter into the prepared pan. Drop 8 individual tablespoons lemon curd around perimeter of batter, leaving a 1-inch border, and taking care to space drops evenly. Drop 3 to 4 tablespoons curd into center of batter. Refrigerate remaining curd for another use. Sprinkle cake with toasted almonds and 1 to 2 tablespoons sugar, depending on taste.
• Bake until cake is toasty brown on top and a toothpick inserted into cake (not curd) comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Let cool on rack 10 minutes, then remove sides of pan, and cool completely.
• Whip cream with almond liqueur. Present cake at table, and offer whipped cream on the side.

• In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine butter, sugar, and orange juice, stirring until the butter has completely melted. Remove from heat, and add the flour, almonds, and orange zest, whisking to combine.
• Place a heaping teaspoon of batter on prepared baking sheet, and flatten with the back of a spoon. Repeat to make about 6 cookies on each sheet, placing them about 4 inches apart.
• Bake one sheet at a time, rotating sheet once cookies have fully flattened, until cookies are golden, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Transfer baking sheet to a wire rack; let cool 20 seconds. Using a thin spatula, carefully lift tuiles; quickly drape over a rolling pin. Let stand until completely cooled and hardened.

MEYER LEMON LACE TUILES

Steps:

• Mix sugar, flour, and salt with a mixer on low speed. Add lemon and orange juices, and beat until just combined. Slowly pour in butter, then increase speed to medium. Add lemon and orange zests, and continue to beat until combined. Cover, and refrigerate overnight (or up to 1 week).
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spoon batter, 1 teaspoon for each cookie, onto a baking sheet lined with a nonstick baking mat, spacing mounds at least 2 inches apart. (Refrigerate remaining batter between batches.) Using a small offset spatula, spread mounds into 3-inch circles. Bake cookies until uniformly light gold, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool on baking sheet for 1 minute. Working quickly, flip cookies over, smooth side up, and roll each around the handle of a wooden spoon. Let stand until hardened. (If cookies become too difficult to roll, return to oven until warm and flexible.) Repeat with remaining batter. Rolled cookies will keep, layered between parchment and covered, for up to 3 days.
