Ingredients
Almond crust
- 1 cup almonds
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 pinch of sea salt or two pinches of kosher salt
- 1/4 cup coconut oil
- 1/4 cup cold water
Strawberry filling
- 3 cups sliced strawberries
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar or lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch or all-purpose flour
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350ºF.
- Pulse the almonds in a food processor until they resemble flour; it's okay if there are some larger pieces. Combine the processed almonds with sugar, flour, and salt. Once mixed, add the coconut oil.
- Blend the mixture with your hands or pulse in the food processor until it looks like wet sand. Add the ice water and form a ball, then wrap it in plastic or parchment paper and refrigerate until ready to use.
- Place the sliced strawberries in a bowl, add vinegar, two tablespoons of sugar, and a tablespoon of starch or flour. Mix well.
- Remove the dough from the refrigerator onto a sheet of parchment paper or a floured surface, flatten it with your hands, and continue to roll it out with a rolling pin. Gather and stretch any separated dough until it forms a sheet about half a centimeter thick.
- Arrange the strawberries in the center of the dough and fold over the edges until they reach the edge of the strawberries.
- Bake in the oven for 20 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the strawberries are bubbling.
- Allow the tart to cool for ten minutes before serving.
- Enjoy with whipped cream, vanilla ice cream, or chopped almonds or pistachios.
Notes
- Be careful not to over-process the almonds, which can turn into almond butter.
- If you have leftover cake, you can store it in a container in the refrigerator, but I must warn you that the coast can become watery.
- It is best to finish the tart the day you make the cake.
How to serve the vegan strawberry tart
Serve the galette with a good dollop of homemade coconut whipped cream. You can also serve it with vegan vanilla ice cream. Another idea is to serve it with a dollop of sour cream or use the homemade vegan cream I make for the strawberries and cream.Nutrition
