Ingredients
For the coconut base:
- 120 g / 1/2 cup coconut oil
- 100 g / 3/4 cup plus 2 tbsp coconut flour
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp powdered sweetener or 4 drops liquid stevia
For the mascarpone cream:
- 250 g / 8.8 ounce/1 very generous cup mascarpone
- 2 eggs separated
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1-2 tbsp powdered sweetener
- 200 g / 1 cup strawberries
Instructions
-
-
Preheat your oven to 180 Celsius/360 Fahrenheit.
-
Blend your eggs with the coconut oil, vanilla and sweetener, if using. I used my food processor, bit this can be done with a stick blender.
-
Sift in the coconut flour and combine.
-
Your dough should be soft, but not too sticky. If needed, add a little more coconut flour to get the right consistency. You can also stick the dough in the fridge for 10 minutes to cool it down – this will also make it easier to roll out.
-
You now have 2 options: Either roll out the dough between 2 sheets of baking paper. Or press it directly into a pie form that you have greased well with coconut oil.
-
Bake for around 10 minutes or until lightly browned at the edges.
-
Now make your filling: Separate the eggs and beat the egg whites in a clean!! and dry!! porcelain or metal bowl with a hand-held or electric metal whisk. As you can see in the picture, I used an old school whisk and around 2 minutes of muscle power. You can do it too! Don’t even think about stopping until stiff peaks form.
-
Combine the mascarpone and the egg yolks, then add the vanilla and sweetener.
-
Gently fold in the stiff egg whites.
-
Once the tart base has cooled down, add the mascarpone mix.
-
Cool in the fridge until serving (at least 1/2 hour).
- Just before serving, add the strawberries – sliced, halved or whole, however you prefer.
- Enjoy & thanks for sharing! 😀
