A light gluten-free strawberry tart is the best dessert for spring days and especially after the delicious Easter meals. In April, the first strawberries come out and wherever they are sold, the place smells of strawberry aroma. Impossible to resist!

So, I was also attracted by their aroma and noticed them on the counter of the supermarket where they were. I remembered that I had promised this tart for you from the beginning of February, when I made the ” The Easiest Gluten Free Pineapple Tart Ever!“. So, I proudly present it to you!!!
Don’t be afraid by the long recipe that looks, it’s very easy!!! I just give you 2-3 alternative ways.

Gluten Free Strawberry Tart
  • Because strawberries are very delicate and spoil quickly, this tart should be eaten within 2-3 days (usually it disappears in a day). To make it last a little longer, you either put the special tart jelly or mix the strawberries with the sauce and then spread them on top.
  • You can omit the pastry cream and thus your tart will be lighter.
  • As an alternative to the cream, you can use the vanilla corn based flour cream, as I have given it to you in the ” The Easiest Gluten Free Pineapple Tart Ever!“.

Good Luck and Bon Appétit!!!
