How to make Almond and jam polenta shortcake

  • Yield : 8
  • Prep Time : 0:30
  • Cook Time : 0:35
  • Total Time : 1:05

Ingredients

  • 405g (1 1/4 cups) raspberry jam
  • 145g (3/4 cup) raisins, chopped
  • 65g (1/2 cup) toasted slivered almonds, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon finely grated orange rind
  • 300g (2 cups) self-raising flour
  • 140g (3/4 cup) instant polenta (cornmeal)
  • 100g (1/2 cup) caster sugar
  • 125g unsalted butter, at room temperature, chopped
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
  • Milk, to brush
  • Icing sugar, to dust
  • Whipped cream, to serve

Method

  • Step 1 Preheat oven to 170°C. Combine the jam, raisin, almond and orange rind in a medium bowl.
  • Step 2 Combine the flour, polenta and caster sugar in a large bowl. Use your fingertips to rub the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles fine breadcrumbs.
  • Step 3 Whisk together the eggs and vanilla. Add to the flour mixture. Use a round-bladed knife in a cutting motion to mix until mixture starts to hold together. Knead gently until smooth and turn onto a lightly floured surface. Divide pastry in half.
  • Step 4 Use a lightly floured rolling pin to roll out 1 pastry half on a lightly floured surface until 5mm thick. Use the pastry to line the base and sides of a 22cm square (base measurement) fluted non-stick tart tin with removable base. Trim excess pastry.
  • Step 5 Pour the jam mixture evenly over the pastry. Roll out the remaining pastry and place over the filling. Press to seal and brush with milk. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until pastry is golden. Set aside in the tin for 10 minutes to cool before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
