Linzer Torte Authentic Recipe | TasteAtlas image

Published by the Austrian Tourist Board, the recipe consists of hazelnut and spice flavored shortcrust pastry in two layers, one as a bottom, and the other as a decorative top layer. With redcurrant jam in the middle and the optional wafers, the torte is finished off with a coating of a beaten egg and almonds flakes sprinkled over the top. When baked and cooled, the torte should be dusted with icing sugar.

Prep Time 1 hours

Cook Time 50 minutes

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

250 g butter
250 g flour
125 g icing sugar
150 g ground hazelnuts (or almonds)
2 tbsp breadcrumbs
1 egg
1 egg yolk
a generous quantity of cinnamon powder
a pinch of ground cloves
grated lemon rind or lemon juice
wafers for layering, to taste
egg for coating
redcurrant jam for coating
butter for the mold
flaked almonds, to taste

Steps:

  • Combine flour with cubes of butter and lightly rub the mixture between fingers to create crumbs, then add in cinnamon, ground cloves, nuts, a little salt, and lemon juice or lemon rind; for more colorful pastry add an extra egg yolk with the egg.
  • Quickly knead all the ingredients to achieve a smooth, shortcrust pastry. Shape the dough into a ball, cover with film and let rest in a cool place for approx. 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 180 °C and prepare a suitably sized spring form cake for baking by greasing its bottom and edges, then dusting it with some breadcrumbs.
  • Take a little over half of the dough and, using your knuckles, press the dough into the base of the tin. From the remaining dough create several smaller rolls for the lattice decoration and one big one to go around the edge.
  • If you prefer, cover the base of the pastry with wafers, then spread over with smoothly stirred jam while leaving a 1 cm border all around for the edging. Take the big roll that you’ve prepared and place it in the space assigned for the edging and press gently.
  • From the thinner rolls form a lattice design on top of the cake. Sprinkle with flakes of almonds to taste and coat with a beaten egg.
  • Bake for 50-60 minutes in a preheated oven, take out, leave to cool and ideally, leave to stand for a day wrapped in film. Dust with icing sugar.

LINZER CAKE RECIPE | EATINGWELL
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.
