PâTE SUCRéE (SWEET TART DOUGH)



Pâte Sucrée (Sweet Tart Dough) image

A pâte sucrée is a crisp yet tender pastry crust that is slightly sweet. It maintains its shortbread-like texture when chilled, which makes it ideal for tarts that require refrigeration.

Categories     Desserts

Time 45m

Yield One fully baked 10-inch tart shell or 9-inch pie shell

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 stick (½ cup) unsalted butter, at room temperature
⅓ cup sugar
¼ teaspoon salt
1¼ cups all-purpose flour, spooned into measuring cup and leveled-off
1 egg yolk
Nonstick cooking spray with flour, for baking

Steps:

  • In a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream the butter, sugar, and salt on medium speed until pale and creamy, about 2 minutes. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Add the flour and mix on low speed for about 30 seconds, until the flour is incorporated. The mixture will look like wet, clumpy sand. Add the egg yolk and mix on low speed until the yolk is evenly incorporated and the dough is clumpy, about 30 seconds. Using your hand, lightly knead the dough into a ball inside the bowl. Remove the dough from the bowl, press it into a 6-inch disk, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap, and let it rest in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes. (The dough can be tightly wrapped in plastic and stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months. If frozen, thaw it in the refrigerator overnight before using.)
  • Lightly spray a 10-inch tart pan with a removable bottom or a 9-inch pie shell with nonstick cooking spray with flour. Place the chilled dough inside the pan. Pinch off pieces of dough and press them against the sides of the pan to reach just shy of a ¼ inch thick and about ⅛ inch above the rim (you'll trim the top later). Using the heel of your hand, press the rest of the dough evenly into the bottom of the pan. (It will look like a mess, and it may seem like you won't have enough dough at first, but have faith, it will come together.) Be sure there are no seams in the dough, and press it squarely along the corners where the bottom meets the sides to avoid extra-thick edges. Use a paring knife to trim the top edge of the dough so it is even with the rim of the pan. Cover with plastic wrap and place in the freezer for at least 30 minutes to chill.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and set an oven rack in the middle position.
  • Place the chilled pâte sucrée on a baking sheet (for easy handling) and bake for 23 to 26 minutes, or until lightly golden. Let cool to room temperature on a wire rack.

Provided by Martha Stewart

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

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 cups (5 1/4 ounces) fresh cranberries
1/2 cup plus 1/3 cup granulated sugar, plus more for sprinkling
1 tablespoon water
All-purpose flour, for dusting
Pate Sucree for Cranberry, Almond, and Cinnamon Tart
1 large egg white, lightly beaten
8 ounces cranberry jam or preserves
10 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
3 large eggs
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
6 ounces (about 1 1/4 cups) whole almonds, finely ground in a food processor
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Put fresh cranberries, 1/3 cup sugar, and the water into a saucepan over medium heat and cook, stirring to dissolve sugar, until cranberries have just softened, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat, and let cool completely.
  • On a lightly floured work surface, roll out dough to a 12-inch circle, 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick. Transfer to an 8-by-2-inch springform pan, pressing crust into bottom and up sides. Trim excess flush with rim. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prick tart crust all over with a fork. Cut a 12-inch round of parchment, and place on top of chilled crust. Fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake for 10 minutes. Remove weights and parchment, and brush crust lightly with egg white. Return to oven, and bake until pale golden, about 25 minutes. Refrigerate remaining egg white. Let crust cool in pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes.
  • Raise oven temperature to 375 degrees. Spread jam over bottom of tart crust.
  • Beat butter and remaining 1/2 cup sugar with a mixer on medium-high speed until pale and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla. Reduce speed to medium. Slowly add ground almonds, cinnamon, and salt, and beat until just combined. Spread mixture over jam-covered crust.
  • Bake tart until filling is set and has darkened slightly, 45 to 50 minutes. (If top darkens too quickly, cover loosely with foil.) Remove tart from oven, brush top with egg white, and sprinkle with sugar. Return to oven, and bake for 5 minutes more. Let cool on a wire rack for 15 minutes. Remove from pan, and top with candied cranberries. Serve warm.

PâTE SUCRéE - FRENCH SWEET TART CRUST (PASTRY DOUGH)



Pâte Sucrée - French Sweet Tart Crust (pastry dough) image

Recipe video above. If I only had room for one Sweet Tart Crust recipe in my life, this would be it. Called Pâte Sucrée in French, it's an excellent master pastry for all sweet tarts, such as the Pistachio Pear Tart recipe I shared today.Buttery and not too sweet, flaky but not so crumbly that makes it difficult to eat with a fork. Plus, the dough is extremely easy to work with - easier than Shortcrust Pastry.Makes enough pastry for a tart tin up to around 24 x 3 cm / 9.5 x 1.2" big.

Provided by Nagi

Categories     Sweet Baking

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 cups flour (, plain/all purpose)
6 1/2 tbsp soft icing sugar / powdered sugar (, sifted (Note 1))
2 1/2 tbsp almond meal / ground almonds ((Note 2))
1/4 tsp salt
100g / 7 tbsp butter (, unsalted, softened, cut into 1cm cubes)
1 large egg (, at room temperature (55-60g/2 oz) (Note 3))

Steps:

  • Mix Dy Ingredients: Whisk together flour, icing sugar, salt and almond meal in a bowl.
  • Add butter: Use your fingertips to rub the butter into the dry ingredients until it resembles breadcrumbs. (Note 4).
  • Add egg: Mix with a rubber spatula until it becomes too hard to stir anymore, then use your hands to bring it together into a dough.
  • Bring dough together: Turn dough out onto a work surface, then knead to bring together into a smooth ball. Flatten into a 2cm / 0.8" thick disc. Wrap with cling wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  • Unwrap chilled dough. Place on a lightly floured work surface.
  • Roll out into a 32cm / 13" round (3mm / 1/8" thick).
  • Line tart tin: Roll pastry lightly on to a rolling pin (ie. so it wraps around itself). Then unroll it gently over the tart tin.
  • Fit pastry: Adjust the pastry to fit into the tart tin, fitting into the corner, taking care not to stretch it (causes shrinkage during bake).
  • Trim excess dough: Roll the rolling pin over tart tin to trim excess dough. Pictured tart tin is 24 x 3 cm / 9.5 x 1.2" - you can use any up to this size.
  • Prick the base of the pastry 30 times with a fork. Not all the way through - just make a light prick on the surface.
  • Chill pastry in tart tin for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 200°C / 390°F (180°C fan).
  • Baking beads: Cover pastry with 2 sheets of baking paper (parchment paper), in a "X" arrangement. Fill with baking beads (or 2 cups dry raw rice or beans).
  • Baking times for a Par Baked Tart to be used for tarts that are baked for > 30 minutes once the filling is added into the cooked tart shell.
  • Bake 15 minutes the remove from oven. Use excess paper to remove baking beads.
  • Bake uncovered 5 minutes: Return tart crust to oven for 5 minutes. Pastry should be light golden, crispy on surface, but slighty undercooked inside (will finish cooking once filled and baked again).
  • Use these baking times if the tart shell is to be used for raw fillings (ie tart not baked once crust is filled) OR fillings that are baked for < 25 minutes.
  • Bake 15 minutes the remove from oven. Use excess paper to remove baking beads.
  • Bake uncovered 10 minutes: This will fully cook the pastry through and give it nice colour which we need as the pastry won't cook through in less than 25 minutes once filled.
  • Cool: Remove then cool in tart tin before filling (this ensures crust stays crispy once filled), then baking again if filling needs to be cooked (like this Pistachio Frangipane Pear Tart).
  • Make ahead up to 3 days, suitable for baking once filled.

EASY PATE SUCREE FOR TARTS



Easy Pate Sucree for Tarts image

Martha used this recipe to make a Lemon-Blueberry Tart on episode 706 of Martha Bakes.

Provided by Martha Stewart

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

Yield Makes one 8-inch tart

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1 large egg yolk
2 tablespoons ice water

Steps:

  • In the bowl of a food processor, combine flour, sugar, and salt. Add butter and yolk and process until mixture resembles a coarse meal, approximately 10 seconds. (To mix by hand, combine dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl; using a pastry blender or two table knives, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse meal.)
  • With the machine running, gradually add water through the feed tube. Process just until dough holds together without being wet or sticky; do not process more than 30 seconds. Test the dough at this point by squeezing a small amount together. If it is crumbly, add a bit more water.
  • Turn dough out onto a large piece of plastic wrap. Grasping the ends of the plastic wrap with your hands, press dough into a flat circle with your fists. This makes rolling easier than if the pastry is chilled as a ball. Wrap dough in plastic and chill for at least an hour.

CRANBERRY-ALMOND TARTS

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.

Provided by Martha Stewart

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

Yield Makes enough for 12 mini pies or 6 tartlets

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
4 1/2 teaspoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1 large egg yolk, lightly beaten
2 tablespoons ice water, plus more if needed

Steps:

  • Pulse flour, sugar, and salt in a food processor to combine. Add butter; process until mixture resembles coarse meal, about 10 seconds. Add yolk; pulse. With machine running, add ice water in a slow, steady stream through feed tube; process until dough just holds together (no longer than 30 seconds). Shape into a disk. Wrap in plastic, and refrigerate at least 1 hour (up to 2 days)

Tips:

  • Choose the right ingredients: Use high-quality butter and eggs for the best flavor and texture. Fresh cranberries are also essential for a tart that is both tangy and sweet.
  • Work quickly: Pate sucree dough is a delicate dough that can become tough if it is overworked. Work quickly and efficiently to mix the dough together and avoid over-kneading.
  • Chill the dough: Chilling the dough before rolling it out helps to prevent it from becoming too sticky and difficult to work with. It also helps to develop the flavor of the dough.
  • Blind bake the crust: Blind baking the crust helps to prevent it from becoming soggy when you add the filling. To blind bake the crust, preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and bake the crust for 15-20 minutes, or until it is golden brown.
  • Don't overcook the filling: The cranberry filling should be cooked until it is just set. Overcooking the filling can make it tough and chewy.
  • Serve the tart warm or at room temperature: This tart is best served warm or at room temperature. If you are serving it cold, let it come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before serving.

Conclusion:

This cranberry almond and cinnamon tart is a delicious and festive dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The sweet and tangy cranberries are complemented perfectly by the nutty flavor of the almonds and the warm spice of the cinnamon. The pate sucree crust is flaky and buttery, and it holds the filling together perfectly. This tart is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it!
