Kiwi And Cream Pie Recipes

KIWI LIME PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• For the crust: Put the graham crackers and most of the macadamia nuts in the bowl of a food processor and process until smooth. Add the butter and sugar and process again to combine. Press into a pie pan and bake until golden and set, about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly while you make the filling.
• For the filling: In the bowl of a stand mixer, add the lime zest and juice and egg yolks and mix until combined. Add the condensed milk and mix on high until smooth and thick. Pour the mixture into the crust and bake until no longer jiggly, about 15 minutes. Allow to cool, then refrigerate for at least 1 hour, more if possible.
• For the topping: Pour the cold heavy cream into a clean mixer bowl. Add the sugar and beat on high speed until the whipped cream is very stiff.
• Slice the kiwis and cover the surface of the cooled pie with the slices. Spread the whipped cream on top. Slice the remaining kiwi slices in half and decorate the top of the pie with them. Chop the remaining macadamia nuts, sprinkle on top and serve.

KIWI TART

Steps:

• Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 450°F.
• Fit dough into tart pan, leaving a 1/2-inch overhang, then fold overhang inward and press against side of pan to reinforce edge. Lightly prick bottom and side of shell with a fork.
• Line shell with foil and fill with pie weights. Bake until edge is pale golden, about 10 minutes. Carefully remove foil and weights and bake shell until golden all over, about 5 minutes more. Cool shell in pan on a rack, about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, beat together cream cheese, sugar, milk, zest, and vanilla in a bowl with an electric mixer until creamy and smooth, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Spread cream cheese filling in cooled shell and top with kiwi slices.

KIWI CREAM PIE

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl combine crushed vanilla wafers, cinnamon, and melted butter or margarine. Press into a 9 inch pie plate to form a firm, even crust. Chill the crust for 1 hour.
• In the meantime, in a small saucepan soften gelatin in cold water, then cook and stir over medium heat until gelatin is dissolved. Cool completely.
• In a large bowl, beat together yogurt, sugar, and lemon juice; stir in the cooled gelatin mixture. Chill until partially set.
• Beat the first 1/2 cup of whipping cream until soft peaks forms and then fold it into the gelatin mixture. Chill till mixture mounds when spooned. Turn into chilled crust. Cover and chill several hours or till set.
• Just before serving, arrange kiwi around the edges of the pie. Beat the second 1/2 cup of whipping cream until soft peaks form and spoon into the center of the pie; garnish with remaining kiwi slices.

EASY PAVLOVA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Draw a 9-inch circle on the parchment paper.
• In a large bowl, beat egg whites until stiff but not dry. Gradually add in the sugar, about 1 tablespoon at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat until thick and glossy. Gently fold in vanilla extract, lemon juice, and cornstarch.
• Spoon mixture inside the circle drawn on the parchment paper. Working from the center, spread mixture toward the outside edge, building edge slightly. This should leave a slight depression in the center.
• Bake for 1 hour. Cool on a wire rack.
• In a small bowl, beat heavy cream until stiff peaks form; set aside. Remove the paper, and place meringue on a flat serving plate. Fill the center of the meringue with whipped cream, and top with kiwifruit slices.

KIWI LIME PIE

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 375°F. Place the flax and water in a small bowl and stir with a teaspoon. Set aside.
• In a food processor, grind the graham crackers and oats into fine crumbs. Transfer to a separate bowl.
• Using a clean coffee grinder, grind the pumpkin seeds. Add to the graham cracker mixture. Add the flax mixture and stir until a coarse meal forms. Press into the bottom and up the sides of an 8 x 8-inch pie plate.
• In a large bowl, place the condensed milk, egg yolks, and lime zest and juice. Whisk well, until a thick, creamlike mixture forms. Pour over the unbaked graham crust and smooth the top with a rubber spatula.
• Bake 12 to 15 minutes, until the edges are firm but the center still jiggles when you shake the pan. Remove from the oven and let cool 30 minutes. Decorate with kiwi slices. When the pie is fairly cool, cover with plastic wrap and chill for at least 1 hour, or up to 8 hours, before serving.
