Cranberry Crumble Tart Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Thoroughly grease a shallow, 2- to 3-quart baking pan.
• Combine apples, cranberries, 2 cups white sugar, and brown sugar in the prepared baking pan. Drizzle brandy over the mixture.
• Combine rolled oats, flour, almonds, walnuts, and 1/4 white sugar in a bowl and toss together. Sprinkle mixture evenly over apples in the baking pan to keep it from burning and allow it to cook evenly. Place pats of butter on top to help with the browning process and give flavor.
• Bake in the preheated oven 15 minutes. Turn baking pan around in the oven to ensure the crumble cooks evenly. Continue baking until lightly browned, 15 to 30 minutes more.

Steps:

• In a food processor, combine flour and sugar, and pulse to mix. Add butter, and pulse until it is the consistency of fine meal. In a small bowl, whisk together the egg yolk and cream. Add to flour mixture, and pulse a few times until dough barely comes together.
• Turn dough out onto a lightly floured work surface. Dip the heel of your hand in flour, and working with small sections, smear dough away from you to blend it together. Gather into a ball, and flatten into a disk. Wrap in plastic wrap, and chill at least 2 hours. Then roll out dough to 1/8-inch thick, and line a 12-inch tart with it. Chill.
• In a large, deep saucepan, mix 1/2 cup water with sugar. Add vanilla bean and seeds and cinnamon stick. Bring to a boil. When sugar begins to color, 3 to 4 minutes, tilt and swirl pan to cook evenly. When mixture is an even caramel color, remove from heat.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Add fresh and dried cranberries, and orange juice. Return to heat, and cook 5 to 8 more minutes, until cranberries swell and begin to pop and any hardened sugar has dissolved. Strain liquid into a bowl, reserving fruit in a mixing bowl. Return liquid to a saucepan, bring to a boil and whisk in cornstarch mixture. Cook until juice is shiny, bubbly and slightly thickened, 1 to 2 minutes. Add to fruit. Let cool, then discard vanilla bean and cinnamon stick. There should be about 3 cups of filling.
• In a food processor, combine flour, sugar and cinnamon, and pulse to mix. Add butter, and pulse until it's the consistency of coarse meal. Add egg, and pulse just to combine.
• Spoon compote into tart shell, and spread in a thin layer. Crumble topping evenly over the top. Bake until compote is bubbling and topping is browned, 35 to 45 minutes.

Steps:

• For the crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9-inch springform pan and line with parchment paper. Set aside.
• Combine the flour, polenta, powdered sugar, cinnamon, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl and stir together with a rubber spatula. Pour in the butter and stir until combined. Add three-quarters of the dough to the bottom of the prepared pan and press evenly into the bottom and 1/2-inch up the sides of the pan. Reserve the remainder of the dough for the top. Bake the crust just to set, 12 to 15 minutes.
• For the filling: Combine the cherries, cranberries, muscovado sugar, flour, orange zest and salt in a medium bowl, and stir to combine and coat evenly. Pour the filling into the crust and spread evenly, pressing gently to nestle into the crust. Drop dollops of the remaining dough randomly over the top of the cobbler. Bake until the filling is bubbly and crust and topping are golden brown, about 45 minutes. Allow to cool completely in the pan before releasing the sides and slicing into wedges. Serve with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• For the tart dough: Combine the flour, sugar, cinnamon and salt in a medium bowl. Add the cold butter and toss to coat. Pinch the butter and flour together until the butter is flaky. Start to rub in between your fingers until it looks like coarse cornmeal.
• In the center of the bowl pour the cream. Using a rubber spatula, turn the flour over in the bowl repeating until the cream is absorbed. With your fingers press the dough to form a compact disc. Remove the dough. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill, about 1 hour.
• Working quickly, roll the dough into a 13-inch circle and carefully place it into a greased 10-inch tart pan. Gently fold the excess dough against the sides creating a reinforced crust. Press down the dough, trimming if there is extra that extends beyond the pan. Chill for an additional 30 minutes.
• Place kitchen parchment paper over the chilled dough, fill with weights, beans or raw rice are prefect. Bake, 15 to 18 minutes. Reduce the oven temperate to 350 degrees F. Carefully remove the parchment and continue baking until the tart shell is golden brown and fully baked, 10 to 12 minutes. Set aside and allow to completely cool.
• For the cardamom crumbles: Begin the cardamom crumbles in a bowl of a stand mixer with a paddle attachment, with the sugar and tangerine zest. In the palms of your hands, rub together the sugar and zest to release the tangerine oils. Add the flour, cardamom, cinnamon, ginger and salt and mix at medium speed until small clumps of dough form. Dump onto a sheet pan. Chill until needed. This can be made up to 2 days ahead.
• For the cranberry tart: In the palms of your hands, rub together the sugar and zest in a large bowl. Add the cranberries, candied ginger and brown sugar and toss well. Fill the baked tart shell with the cranberries, top with the cardamom crumbles and bake until golden brown and the cranberries begin to bubble up through the crumble, 45 to 50 minutes.
• Remove the tart from the oven and allow to cool to room temperature. I prefer waiting an hour or longer before cutting the tart. This gives the very juicy cranberries time to cool, allowing the tart to set up. I've even let it sit all night on the counter.

Steps:

• Make pastry:
