Linzer Torte
Linzer Torte is a traditional Austrian dessert that consists of a rich buttery pastry base filled with a thick layer of fruit preserves, typically raspberry, and topped with a lattice crust. It’s usually flavored with almonds, cinnamon, and lemon zest, giving it a deliciously sweet and slightly tangy flavor.
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup ground almonds
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 cup raspberry preserves
- Powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9-inch tart pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing well.
- In a separate bowl, combine the flour, ground almonds, cinnamon, and lemon zest.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms.
- Divide the dough in half and press one half into the bottom of the prepared tart pan.
- Spread the raspberry preserves evenly over the dough in the pan.
- Roll out the remaining dough and cut it into strips to create a lattice pattern on top of the preserves.
- Bake the Linzer Torte for 35-40 minutes, until the crust is golden brown.
