CRANBERRY WALNUT TART



Cranberry Walnut Tart image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     dessert

Time 1h30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
6 ounces (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 egg
2 1/2 ounces (5 tablespoons or a little over 1/2 stick) unsalted butter
2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon all-purpose flour
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/3 cup dark corn syrup
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2/3 cup whole, fresh cranberries
2/3 cup walnut pieces

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • To make the sweet dough: Place the sugar, butter, and vanilla extract in the bowl of an electric mixer. With the paddle attachment, beat the ingredients until creamy. Add flour and salt and mix until just combined. Add egg and again mix until just combined. Alternately, this can be done in a food processor. Form a disk out of the dough, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 1/2 hour. When dough is slightly chilled, lay it between 2 sheets of plastic wrap, and with a rolling pin, roll it out into a round ? about 1/8-inch in thickness. Remove the top layer of plastic wrap and flip the dough into an ungreased tart or pie pan. With the plastic wrap still on the dough, gently press the dough into the bottom and sides of the pan. Use the rolling pin to roll across the top of the tart pan, cutting off excess dough. Remove plastic wrap and set lined pan aside while making the filling. Excess unbaked dough can be rolled out, sprinkled with sugar, and baked as sugar cookies or can be wrapped and frozen for another day.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • To make the Cranberry Walnut Filling: Melt butter and set aside. In a bowl, blend together flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Add the rest of the ingredients, including the butter, and stir until well combined.
  • Pour into tart shell and bake for approximately 30 minutes, until tart is light brown and the filling has set. Cool and remove tart from ring. Serve at room temperature or refrigerate. Tart keeps for about 1 week in the refrigerator. It can be well wrapped and frozen for later use.

Provided by lutzflcat

Categories     Desserts     Pies     Tarts     Fruit Tart Recipes

Time 1h23m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

¼ cup dried cranberries
cooking spray
2 Granny Smith apples, peeled
1 teaspoon lemon juice
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
¼ teaspoon salt
1 (9 inch) prepared pie crust
1 egg white, beaten
1 tablespoon turbinado sugar, or to taste

Steps:

  • Place cranberries in a small bowl. Cover with boiling water. Let soak until plump, about 15 minutes. Drain.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet lightly with cooking spray.
  • Cut a deep vertical slice into both sides of each apple, being sure not to cut through to the core. Attach 1 apple to a spiralizer fitted with the straight-flat blade and cut into thin half-slices. Repeat with second apple.

  • Mix white sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt together in a bowl. Stir into the apple mixture.

Tips:

  • Use a food processor to quickly and easily chop the walnuts and cranberries.
  • If you don't have a food processor, you can chop the walnuts and cranberries by hand. Just be sure to chop them finely so that they distribute evenly throughout the tart.
  • Be sure to use fresh apples for this tart. Fresh apples will give the tart the best flavor and texture.
  • If you don't have any fresh apples, you can use frozen apples. Just be sure to thaw them completely before using them.
  • You can use any type of pie crust for this tart. You can use a store-bought pie crust or you can make your own. It is recommended using a homemade all-butter pie crust if you have the time.
  • Be sure to pre-bake the pie crust before filling it. This will help to prevent the crust from becoming soggy.
  • Don't overfill the tart crust. The filling should come up to the top of the crust, but it shouldn't be overflowing.
  • Bake the tart until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
  • Let the tart cool completely before serving. This will help the filling to set.

Conclusion:

This rustic cranberry walnut apple tart is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert. It's perfect for any occasion, from a casual gathering to a holiday party. The tart crust is flaky and buttery, the filling is sweet and tart, and the walnuts and cranberries add a nice crunch and flavor.
