If you love raspberries you will love these gluten-free tartlets - they are bursting with a beautiful fresh raspberry flavour! They have a wonderfully smooth, creamy and intensely raspberry filling which goes perfectly with the nutty cacao base.
These raspberry tartlets contain no refined sugar or flour and require no baking! They are a healthy sweet treat that is super tasty and easy to prepare.
Sometimes the mere sight of a raspberry can bring on raspberry cravings for me, and these tarts sure know how to satisfy that craving.
They taste intensely of raspberries! I feel I could just dive head-first into that mixture, but that would be getting a little carried away!
Master H was jumping at the sight of these - what toddler wouldn't when looking at that gorgeous fun red colour? I think he thought I was making some kind of red playdough concoction but got even more excited when he realised it was food!
I thought he may turn his nose up at the tarts as they are a little tangy with the raspberry flavour (which if you are a raspberry fan you will love! - I do!) but may be more suitable for more acquired taste buds...but no.... he absolutely loved them!
Raspberries not only taste amazing but they are also full of phytonutrients and antioxidants (1).
Frozen or fresh raspberries
Raspberries do freeze very well and can be kept in the freezer for up to one year. Recent research has shown that the antioxidant properties of organic raspberries are significantly higher than the non-organic raspberries, so it does pay to buy organic where you can.
