Berry fig Tart (Tarta de higos y frambuesas)

 





So long time.

 I'm really sorry when I can't post.

At this time it has been complicated. Esperanza returned to classes at the University and my son continues to work at home, but that makes me have a schedule for meals and everything else.

But here I am.

I have about three recipes ready, I'll try to post them little by little.

Today's is a cake with figs and raspberries, as we are already at the end of summer we already found figs..

But you could make them with the first fruits of summer, blueberries, raspberries or strawberries whatever you want.

The dough is very good.

I hope you like it I send you lots of love and affection and enjoy your spring

Autumn is starting here!

Austrian Apricot Cake (Cake de damascos)

 





I had two recipes ready but I didn't know which post first, I finally chose the apricot one because it is new for those from the northern hemisphere who are waiting for their spring.

 I know you have had a lot of snow and cold  time but the good weather will come.

There were quite a few apricots this year but as you know it's a short season so the first thing I made was jam and then this apricot cake which was delicious.

I hope you can make this recipe, you can also make it with peaches or other fruit you like.

2 teaspoons lemon zest

pinch of salt

1 1/2 cup all purpose flour

1/4 icing sugar for dusting

Method


Preheat oven to 180°c (350° F) and line a square  baking pan with parchmente paper ( leave some hanging over the side for easy removal.)

Or use canned apricots

In a large bowl beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

Add the eggs yolks, one at a time scrapíng down the bowl between additions .

In another bowl add the egg whites and pinch of salt. Whip until stiff peaks form .

Add the one third of the egg whites folding vigorously.

Add the remaining   egg whites and fold gently until just incorporated.

Spread batter evenly in the prepared  baking pan.

Top with apricot halves. Do not press the fruit into the batter, the cake will rise  around it.

Bake about 40 minutes or until the cake is golden and springs back.

For extra aprricot flavour brush the apricots with warm apricot glaze when  the cake comes out of the oven.

To make the glaze warm the apricots jam with the water  and  brush on the fruit with a pastry brush,

Allow the cake to cool, then dust with icing sugar before cutting and serving.
