Orange Cream Tart Recipe

 

Ingredients:

Crust:

  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

Filling:

  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup fresh orange juice
  • 1 tbsp orange zest
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 4 large egg yolks
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Topping:

  • Whipped cream
  • Fresh raspberries
  • Mint leaves for garnish
  • Powdered sugar for dusting

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Crust:
    • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
    • In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and sugar.
    • Add the melted butter and mix until the crumbs are well coated and hold together when pressed.
    • Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch tart pan.
    • Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the crust is lightly golden. Let it cool completely.
  2. Prepare the Filling:
    • In a medium saucepan, combine the heavy cream, fresh orange juice, orange zest, and sugar.
    • Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally to dissolve the sugar.
    • In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks and cornstarch until smooth.
    • Gradually pour the hot orange mixture into the egg yolk mixture, whisking constantly to prevent curdling.
    • Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over medium heat, whisking constantly until it thickens and comes to a boil.
    • Remove from heat and stir in the softened butter and vanilla extract until smooth.
    • Pour the filling into the cooled crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
    • Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until set.
  3. Decorate and Serve:
    • Once the tart is set, garnish with a dollop of whipped cream, fresh raspberries, and mint leaves.
    • Dust with powdered sugar before serving.

Enjoy your refreshing and creamy orange tart!
