LINZER CAKE RECIPE | EATINGWELL



Linzer Cake Recipe | EatingWell image

Linzer Tart (or Linzer Torte) is an Austrian specialty: an almond pastry topped with raspberry jam. Here it is reinvented as an American cake: almond-rich layers divided by raspberry jam. It's even better when prepared a day in advance, giving the jam time to soak into the cake. If you like, buck tradition by using strawberry jam and garnishing with fresh strawberries.

Total Time 2 hours 0 minutes

Number Of Ingredients 13

½ cup whole-wheat pastry flour
¼ cup all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
? cup whole almonds
2 tablespoons low-fat milk
2 tablespoons canola oil
½ teaspoon almond extract
4 large eggs, at room temperature (see Cake-Baking Tips), separated
¾ cup sugar, divided
? cup raspberry jam
1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar, for garnish
1/2 pint (about 1 1/4 cups) fresh raspberries, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • To prepare cake: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Coat two 9-inch round cake pans with cooking spray with flour (see Tip); alternatively, coat the pans with regular cooking spray, line them with parchment paper and spray the paper.
  • Whisk whole-wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder and salt in a small bowl. Set aside.
  • Place almonds in a food processor and process until finely ground. Add milk, oil and almond extract and pulse to combine.
  • Beat egg whites in a medium bowl with an electric mixer on high speed until soft peaks form. Beat in 1/4 cup sugar in a slow, steady stream. Continue beating until stiff peaks form.
  • Beat egg yolks and the remaining 1/2 cup sugar in a large bowl on medium speed until pale yellow and doubled in volume, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Gently stir the almond mixture into the egg-yolk mixture with a rubber spatula. Add the flour mixture; gently stir until just incorporated. Stir about 1 cup of the whites into the batter until combined. Gently fold the remaining whites into the batter, using long, even strokes, until just incorporated and no white streaks remain. Divide the batter between the prepared pans; spread it to the edges and gently rap the pans against the counter once or twice to settle the batter.
  • Bake, rotating the pans halfway through, until lightly browned and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with only a few moist crumbs attached, 18 to 20 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes, then invert the layers onto the rack, remove the pans and parchment paper, if using, and let cool completely, about 45 minutes more.
  • To assemble cake: Place one layer, top-side down, on a serving plate; spread raspberry jam over it. Cover it with the second layer, top-side down. Sift confectioners' sugar over the cake. Decorate with raspberries, if desired.

  • In a medium bowl, whisk to combine the almond flour, all-purpose flour, and ground cinnamon. Place the softened butter and sugar in a medium bowl (or the bowl of a stand mixer). With a hand mixer (or stand mixer with a paddle attachment), beat until creamy and light, 2-3 minutes. Add the egg, vanilla extract and lemon zest and mix well to combine. Add the flour mixture in 3-4 batches, mixing on low to combine completely in between each addition. Scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl as needed.  Divide the dough into 2 portions and pat into 2 discs, about 1” thick.  Wrap each tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour until firm (or up to 2 days). Remove the dough from the refrigerator and let sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes. The dough should still feel cold and slightly firm but soft enough to leave the imprint of your fingers. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.  Flour a surface very well and place one disc of dough on top (leave the other disc wrapped in plastic wrap). Roll into a large, thin sheet (between 1/16 - 1/8-inch thick.) Using a circle or shaped cutter (about 2 ½” wide), cut shapes from the dough. Place the cookies on large baking sheets lined with parchment paper, about 1-inch apart. Gather up any remaining scraps, wrap with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator for 15 minutes. Repeat with the remaining sheet of dough and any remaining, chilled dough scraps. Cut small shapes from the centers of one-half of the cookies. (You can add this dough to the re-roll pile, or bake off little mini cookies). Bake for 9-11 minutes, just until the edges of the cookies are lightly golden. Let cool for 5 minutes on the sheet pans before transferring to a cooling rack to cool completely. Top the whole cookies with 1-2 teaspoons of jam and spread all over the center of the cookies. Place the cookies with cut-outs on a sheet tray and sift powdered sugar over top. Carefully place the sugared cookies over top of the cookies with jam. Serve immediately or store in a single layer in an air-tight container, between sheets of parchment paper, in the refrigerator, for up to 3 days.

Linzer cake is best eaten two or three days after making, when the dough softens, and the advice for those who are less patient is to wrap the cake in foil while warm so to soften faster.
