Serves 32 people
By Barker's Professional
Ingredients
- Flaky Pastry (pre-made) g Flaky pastry
- 400 g Currants
- 400 g Barker's Professional Berry Fruit Mince
- 4 g Vanilla bean paste
Method
- In a medium sized bowl, combine your currants, Barkers Professional Berry Fruit Mince and vanilla bean paste. Stir with a wooden spoon until thoroughly combined, cover with a lid or cling film and leave for 3-4 hours.
- Remove your pre-made pastry from the fridge or freezer, allow to come back to room temperature.
- Pre-heat your oven to 200°C.
- Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured surface, approximately a 3mm thickness and then leave the pastry to rest for 5 minutes.
- Using a 10cm circumference cutter, lightly flour, and cut the flaky pastry into rounds. Remove and dispose of the excess scrap.
- Place 25 grams of our berry mixture into the centre of each flaky pastry disc. Bring all the edges together and pinch the pastry so the filling is sealed.
- Turn over and lightly press into a disc shape, with a rough circumference of 7 cm’s.
- Brush with egg wash, sprinkle liberally with caster sugar.
- Make 3 small cuts in the centre and place on your greased baking trays.
- Bake for approximately 16 minutes, remove from the oven and place on a cake wire.
- Enjoy warm, straight out of the oven or just as delicious once cooled.
- Tip: Can be served with Barker's Professional custard flavoured patisserie crème, whipped cream or Greek yoghurt. This will give the currants a chance to absorb any additional moisture from the Barkers Berry Fruit Mince, making the added currants much softer and plumper. A far better eating experience.
- Tip 2: Replace 150 grams of the Barker's Professional Berry Fruit Mince with Barker’s Professional Blueberry Patisserie Filling or Barker’s Professional Raspberry Patisserie Filling or Barker's Professional Cranberry Jelly
