Fruit Danish Tartlets

by:




There are several styles you can use for enclosing fruit in Danish pastry. Ideally the fruit should be cooked ahead of time so it doesn't release a lot of liquid as it bakes, making the pastry soggy. If you want to use berries, it is best to use them in the form of preserves or cook them down with sugar, and put them in the Danish twirls. Roundfruits such as apricots, pears, plums, and peaches can be halved and sautéed with sugar and butter or baked until any liquid they release caramelizes. These pastry cases are made to holdfruit, much like the puff pastry holders. The cases are lined with almond cream, but you can also use cream cheese and a sprinkling of sugar. Use a small marble slab that can be placed in the refrigerator as needed to chill the dough and keep it cold.
