Spring has been in the air for a while but it was not my my plate. Spring fruits and veggies were not ripped yet. Now, spring is in the air and in my plate! You can’t imagine how happy I am. To start of the spring serie of recipe here is an amazing strawberry tart with less dairy than usual ones.. not entirely dairy free, I am still working on dairy free party dough which would be just as flaky and buttery than the regular ones. I hope you will try out this recipe, and as an additional tip, I would told you not to be to shy on the amount of lime zest you will put on the amandine. Lime and strawberry pair amazingly well especially on a spring tart!
Ingredients for the sweet pastry dough
250g of all purpose flour
125g of cold butter
70g of icing sugar
¼ tsp of vanilla beans
1 egg
1 pinch of salt
Ingredients for the dairy free amadine
75g of sugar
130g of ground almond
100mL of soy cream
one pinch of salt
Ingredients for the topping
zest of one lime
400g of strawberries
Method
In a large bowl mix together flour, salt and icing sugar.
Add the butter cut into small cubes.
Use your hand to crumble the butter in the flour. Do it until you have a sandy like texture.
Add the egg along with the vanilla beans.
Mix with your hands until you get a firm, non-sticky dough. Do not over mix the dough.
Wrap it in a plastic wrap and allow it to sit for at least three hours in your fridge.
When you are ready, preheat your oven at 200°C or 390F roll out your dough.
Line a tart tin with it and place parchment paper on it. Put some weights ( lentils, rice) on the parchment paper.
Bake for 20 minutes.
Remove from the oven and allow the shell to cool completely.
Meanwhile, prepare the amandine.
Whisk together sugar, ground almond, salt and soy cream.
Spread it evenly on the pie shell.
Bake for another 15 minutes or until the amandine is evenly golden.
Remove from the oven and let the tart cool completely.
Wash the lime and the strawberries.
Halve the strawberries.
Zest the lime and sprinkle the zest all over the amandine.
Place the strawberry halves on top of the amandine.
Keep the tart in your fridge until you serve it.
