Fruit Tart Recipe

 

Fruit tarts: A summery treat for the palate

Now that summer is slowly coming and the delicious berries are finally starting to grow here in Switzerland, we thought we'd share a new recipe with you! With the high temperatures, of course, it shouldn't be a heavy cream cake, but simply something small, delicate and easy to digest. These fruit tarts are perfect for that.

The base is a fine almond sponge cake. Loose, airy, light, but nice and moist thanks to the almond paste.

On top comes a delicious vanilla cream, which is then topped with the fruit of your choice. What are you waiting for?

Off to the kitchen :)

Preparation time

20 min.

Baking time

30 min.

Cooling time

6 h.

Almond biscuit

Here's how:

  • Preheat the oven to 160 °C convection oven.
  • In a large bowl, cream the almond paste (or the marzipan and egg white mixture) with the egg yolks.
  • In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites with the sugar until stiff.
  • Now alternately fold the flour and the beaten egg whites into the egg yolk mixture. Be sure to sieve the flour, otherwise it could clump together.
  • Fill the sponge mixture into the silicone moulds. About 75 g will fit into one mould.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes.
  • After baking, leave to cool on a cooling rack for approx. 15 minutes.

Vanilla cream

Here's how:

For the hollow bodies of the pralines, make sure that you use tempered couverture! You can find out how to do this in this blog post.

  • Bring the milk (part 1) to the boil with the sugar and vanilla seeds.

  • In a separate bowl, mix the egg yolks with the vanilla cream powder and the milk (part 2).

  • Now add about 1/3 of the hot milk to the egg yolk mixture, stirring. This equalises the temperature and reduces the chance of the egg curdling when it comes to the boil.

  • Now add the leveled mixture back to the rest of the vanilla milk.

  • Now boil the mixture, stirring carefully, until it forms a firm pudding.

  • As soon as the pudding is nicely set, put it into a bowl and cover it with cling film. Place the cling film directly on the pudding to prevent a skin from forming. Then refrigerate.

  • After chilling for at least 6 hours, whip the pudding with a hand mixer.

  • Now whip the cream until stiff and fold it into the whipped custard.

  • Fill the finished mixture into a piping bag and spread evenly over the cupcakes.

  • You can fit about 30 g of cream on each tartlet.

  • Decorate with berries of your choice and serve!

  • The tartlets can be kept at room temperature for up to 5 days.
