Mini Pistachio Pie with Mascarpone Cream and Berries<\/h2>\n

\n

<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n

For pistachio crust:<\/h4>\n
    \n
  • 140 grams all-purpose flour<\/li>\n
  • 30 grams natural pistachios<\/li>\n
  • 50 grams sugar<\/li>\n
  • Pinch of salt<\/li>\n
  • 80 grams cold butter cut into cubes<\/li>\n
  • 1 egg yolk<\/li>\n
  • 1\/2 tsp. vanilla extract<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    For pistachio cream:<\/h4>\n
      \n
    • 60 grams natural ground pistachios<\/li>\n
    • 60 grams sugar<\/li>\n
    • 60 grams cold butter cut into cubes<\/li>\n
    • 1 large egg<\/li>\n
    • 1 tsp. pistachio paste<\/li>\n
    • 1 tbsp. all-purpose flour<\/li>\n
    • 60-70 grams frozen or fresh berries<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Berries:<\/h4>\n
        \n
      • 50 grams frozen (thawed or fresh berries)<\/li>\n
      • 20 grams sugar<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        For mascarpone cream:<\/h4>\n
          \n
        • 250 grams mascarpone cheese at room temperature<\/li>\n
        • 80 grams sugar powder<\/li>\n
        • 1 tsp. vanilla extract<\/li>\n
        • 250 ml. heavy cream<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          Decoration:<\/h4>\n
            \n
          • Fresh berries<\/li>\n
          • Slightly toasted chopped pistachios<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n
            \n

            Pistachio crust:<\/h4>\n
              \n
            1. In a food processor with a steel blade put flour, pistachios, sugar, salt and butter and blend until mixture is crumbly.<\/li>\n
            2. Add egg yolk and vanilla and continue to blend just until large chunks of dough form.<\/li>\n
            3. Transfer the dough chunks on a lightly floured work surface and form a disc-shape with your hands.<\/li>\n
            4. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for about an hour.<\/li>\n
            5. Roll out the dough on a floured work surface about 3-4 mm thick and cut out circles about 8-9 cm in diameter. Line the tartelette molds. It is important to create a right angle between the sides and the base of the crust, which will ensure the edges remain high when baking.<\/li>\n
            6. Using a fork pierce the crust of each tartelette. Freeze the tartelette crusts for about 30 minutes before baking.<\/li>\n
            7. Preheat oven to 170c degrees.<\/li>\n
            8. Bake the tartelette crusts for 8 minutes until they start to set and get a very light golden shade.<\/li>\n
            9. Cool at room temperature.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

              Pistachio cream:<\/h4>\n
                \n
              1. In a food processor with a steel blade put pistachio powder, sugar and butter and blend until crumbly mixture form.<\/li>\n
              2. Add in egg, pistachio paste and flour and blend until smooth.<\/li>\n
              3. Fill the tartelette shells with cream and flatten the top.<\/li>\n
              4. Place a few frozen or fresh berries onto the cream.<\/li>\n
              5. Bake for about 10-13 minutes until golden and set.<\/li>\n
              6. Cool completely at room temperature.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                Berries:<\/h4>\n
                  \n
                1. Mix berries and sugar in a small bowl and set aside for 30 minutes at room temperature.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                  Mascarpone cream:<\/h4>\n
                    \n
                  1. In a bowl of a mixer whip mascarpone, sugar powder and vanilla on medium speed until combined.<\/li>\n
                  2. Increase the mixer speed to high and gradually add in the cream while whipping until a stable cream forms.<\/li>\n
                  3. Transfer the cream into a piping bag with a large serrated piping tip.<\/li>\n
                  4. Over each tartelette place about 2-3 berries.<\/li>\n
                  5. Drizzle over a mound of mascarpone cream, so that it hides the berries.<\/li>\n
                  6. Decorate with fresh berries and sprinkle chopped toasted pistachios.<\/li>\n<\/ol><\/div>\n
                    \n
                      \n
                    • You can also prepare the recipe in one 22 cm round pie pan. Baking time will be longer.<\/li>\n
                    • Keep the tartelettes in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days, but it’s at its best on the day you make it.<\/li>\n
                    • You can use any kind of berries you like. I used a combination of red currants and blueberries.<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n
                      \n\t\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
