Bursting with blueberries, flavoured with vanilla and nestled in a buttery crust, this Gluten-Free Blueberry Vanilla Tart is truly unforgettable.
Healthy and so easy to put together, but most of all, incredibly delicious. Every bite is filled with sweet blueberries nestled in a melt in your mouth buttery crust.
Blueberries are one of my favourite berries, especially in summer. The season for blueberry picking runs from July to the end of August, this is when they are perfectly sweet. The best time to pick blueberries is early in the morning or late in the day to keep them and you cool. And, blueberries freeze beautifully.
And as a bonus, they are packed with antioxidants, fiber and healthy nutrients and are considered one of the best superfoods for your health.
gluten-free blueberry vanilla tart…the details
To make this blueberry tart is pretty easy. The buttery crust is made in a food processor and then easily pressed in a tart pan.
The fresh blueberries are lightly tossed with cinnamon, fresh lemon juice and tapioca flour and are placed in the crust.
It is the vanilla sauce that sets this gluten-free blueberry vanilla tart apart from most.
To make the vanilla sauce is super easy. You will need maple syrup, coconut cream, vanilla and a saucepan. First, heat the maple syrup, then stir in the coconut cream and vanilla. Mix and with the blueberries, and the filling is ready.
Next, add the filling to the prepared crust and slowly bake until the blueberries start to bubble. Then, the blueberry tart is cooled to room temperature. Done 🙂
