Keto Strawberry Tart

Looking for delectable Keto summer recipes to satisfy your sweet tooth? Then this Keto strawberry tart is just the perfect treat for you! This delightful treat comes together with minimal ingredients and preparation and a harmonious blend of flavors. It consists of a luscious cream cheese layer on a perfectly crumbly base, paired with fresh juicy strawberries and the perfect amount of zing from the lemon juice and zest.

What type of flour can you use to make this recipe?

Almond flour and coconut flour are the two most popular flour choices for Keto baking. Almond flour is preferred for its mild nutty flavor and fine texture, providing a tender, crumbly crust. In contrast, coconut flour is known for its high fiber content and absorbent feature, therefore, creating a slightly denser crust texture. Another type of flour that has recently gained popularity is sunflower seed flour. It works just as good as almond flour and yields a delicious crumbly crust. It is also perfect for those with nut allergies. Sunflower seed flour can be substituted with any nut flour at a 1:1 ratio. Avoid using coconut flour for this recipe.

Can you eat tarts when on a Keto diet?

Although traditional tarts are made with wheat flour and sugar, which are typically high in carbs, there are plenty of Keto-friendly tart recipes that are safe to consume. These recipes usually use a low-carb pie crust made from almond flour, coconut flour, or sunflower seed flour, as well as low-carb sweeteners in the filling. By adapting the ingredients and ratios to fit into the Keto guidelines, you can enjoy delicious tarts that are satisfying without compromising your net carb intake.

How do you store this Keto strawberry tart?

To store this Keto strawberry tart, firstly, cover the tart tightly with plastic wrap or place it in an airtight container to prevent air exposure and keep the tart from drying out. Store the tart in the refrigerator to maintain its texture and flavor. It is best to consume this tart within 2-3 days since it is made with fresh strawberries and cream cheese. It is important to note that the longer the tart stays in the fridge, the softer the crust may become due to the moisture from the filling; therefore, it is best to consume it when freshly made.

    Preheat the oven to 325F/165C and melt the butter in a small saucepan on the stovetop. Meanwhile, in a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the sunflower seed flour, 1/4 cup allulose, and salt and whisk to combine and ensure there are no lumps left behind. Add in the melted butter and mix using a spatula until coarse crumbs start to form.

    This sounds fantastic! And easily do-able. I appreciate all the good, detailed information the recipe writer provided about the recipe -- the characteristics of the various kinds of flour and considerations about storing leftovers. Not that it's likely there will be any! This dessert will be showing up on my table very soon!

      Agreed! I make something similar w/raspberries or blueberries and actually use the strained berries as the sugar.
