Vegan Blueberry Crostata Tutti Dolci


Gateshead PAWG

Enjoy the delicious flavors of a vegan blueberry crostata from Tutti Dolci This simple Italian dessert has a flaky almond pastry with blueberries inside that are sweetened with maple syrup and a hint of lemon. Its a great treat for any event.

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup almond flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup vegan butter, chilled and diced
  • 3-4 tbsp ice water
  • 2 cups fresh blueberries
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp almond milk, for brushing
  • 2 tbsp sliced almonds, for topping
  • Powdered sugar, for dusting

Instructions:

Warm the oven up to 190C 375F

Put parchment paper on the bottom of a baking sheet

All-purpose flour, almond flour, sugar, and salt should be pulsed together in a food processor until they are all mixed together

Dice the vegan butter and pulse the mixture until it looks like coarse crumbs

Pulse as you add ice water, one tablespoon at a time, until the dough starts to stick together

Be careful not to mix too much

Move the dough to a surface that has been lightly floured

Knead it gently a few times until it is smooth

Roll it into a disk, cover it with plastic wrap, and put it in the fridge for 30 minutes

Toss the blueberries, cornstarch, maple syrup, lemon juice, and vanilla extract together in a bowl until everything is well mixed

Put some flour on a surface and roll out the chilled dough into a 12-inch circle

Move to the baking sheet that has been prepared

Leave a 2-inch border around the edge of the dough as you spread the blueberry mixture in the middle

Fold the doughs edges over the filling and pleat them if you need to

To finish, use almond milk to brush the edges of the dough and then add fresh almond slices

If you want the crust to be golden brown and the blueberry filling to bubble, bake it for 30 to 35 minutes

Place the crostata on a wire rack to cool down

Before you serve, sprinkle with powdered sugar

Have fun
