Recipe Preparation
Oatmeal Crust
- Place oats, Windsor® Fine Sea Salt, and brown sugar in a food processor and pulse until finely ground.
- Add butter and water and pulse until dough is sticky (30 seconds).
- Divide and press dough into 12 individual mini tart tins or lined muffin tins.
- Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 10-15 minutes.
- Let cool. Remove from tins before filling.
Salted Caramel
- Put sugar and water in a heavy saucepan on medium-high heat. Stir just until the sugar is dissolved and reaches a hard boil. Have a cup of water to help brush down the inside of the pot, so no crystals form.
- Let boil undisturbed watching carefully until syrup turns a golden brown colour.
- Remove from heat and add butter, cream and Windsor® Fine Sea Salt, stirring constantly until combined, set aside and let cool.
Mousse
- Dissolve gelatin in 1/4 cup (60 mL) cold water and let sit for 2 minutes.
- Add 1/4 cup (60 mL) boiling water to melt it and let cool slightly. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whip the cream until stiff, add the cooled gelatin, stir to incorporate.
- Then add 1/3 cup (75 mL) of the cooled caramel and 1 cup (250 mL) of the blueberries stir gently to incorporate.
To Assemble
- Spoon 1/2 teaspoon (2 mL) of the caramel in the bottom of the tart shell and spread lightly. Spoon mousse into each tart and spread evenly.
- Drizzle extra caramel over the top and add extra blueberries then sprinkle with a pinch of Windsor® Coarse Sea Salt. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
