Infusion rajeunissante au Kinkéliba
Une infusion chaude ou froide de Kinkéliba,
Ingredients
Apple Filling
- ¼ cup brown sugar (packed)
- 6 apples (peeled, cored, and chopped into roughly 3/4-inch cubes)
Crust
- 2 cups all purpose flour plus extra for dustin the pan
- ½ tbsp salt + pepper
- 6 tbsp ice cold water
Topping
- 1½ tbsp lemon juice (Freshly squeezed juice, please do not use boxed juice)
- ⅔ cup cinnamon (crushed graham crackers)
- 6 cups all purpose flour (I like King Arthur Baking Company All-Purpose Flour)
- ½ tbsp cinnamon (ground)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350ºF/180ºC/gas 4. Generously spray two 12-cup muffin pans with cooking spray. Sprinkle the bottom of each cavity with a couple pinches of sugar. Set aside.
- Add almonds and rosemary to your KitchenAid® K400 Blender. Close lid, select “Ice Crush” setting, and let blender run through the setting. Scrape down the sides of the blender with a rubber spatula, then replace lid and blend on speed 5 for 10 seconds. Scrape sides again and blend on speed 5 for a final 15-20 seconds, or until almonds and rosemary are finely ground.
- Pour the almond mixture from blender in a small mixing bowl. Add all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk to combine, and set aside.
- Place ricotta cheese, olive oil, orange zest and sugar into the blender. Pulse 5 times to incorporate. Remove the lid cap and add eggs, one at a time, pulsing once after each addition. Replace lid cap.
- Remove lid, use spatula to scrape down the sides of the bender, then add half of flour mixture to blender and pulse 2 times. Scrape down sides of blender again, then add remaining flour mixture and blend on speed 3 for 15 seconds.
- Assemble the cakes. Use a sharp knife to cut off the ends of four of the citrus fruits. Slice the citrus into very thin rounds, no thicker than 1/8". Remove any seeds from the rounds and place one small citrus round in the bottom of each sugared muffin cavity. (See Chef’s Notes for choosing/placing citrus.)
- Slowly fill each muffin cavity to a little more than halfway full. (A pastry spatula is helpful in portioning the batter from the blender and into the cavities.) Bake cakes for 20-25 minutes, rotating the pans halfway through baking. Cakes are done when a toothpick inserted into the cakes comes out clean.
Notes
Version pour enfants : Faites cuire le poulet dans du bouillon plutôt que dans de la sauce Buffalo. Effilochez-le et égouttez-le. Réservez une partie du poulet nature pour les enfants et mélangez le reste avec la sauce Buffalo avant de le faire griller.
