Peach and Strawberry Gluten-Free Rustic Tart Recipe. Gluten-free rustic tart with juicy peaches and strawberries with almond crumble topping.
I’ve made this Peach and Strawberry Rustic Tart while staying at my mother in law’s house in Portugal last month. It’s only just making it’s way onto a blog as I had to take some time out to heal and rejuvenate due to some unexpected circumstances. Apologies for the lack of posts, but I’m back now and so looking forward to creating some new delicious recipes for you.
I’ve never made a gluten-free pastry before and was really surprised how well it turned out. The peaches and strawberries create an amazing combination of flavours and I love the crumble topping. Mind you the local peaches are really tasty! I’ve made the dough by hand, but you could use the food processor if you prefer. You could also use different seasonal fruit, I’ve made one with pears which was equally delicious.

Hana – this looks like the ultimate comfort food: beautiful, delicious and wholesome, too. What a lovely creation. I will definitely be adding this to my to-bake list :-) Re the pears – did you combine them with the peaches, or just bake a version with that one fruit? Pear and cinnamon could be something yummy for the autumn/winter months :-) Big hug to you my dear friend, Txxx
Hi Teresa, thank you, It really was a yummy tart! I’ve made one only with pears and it was great too:) I might make a new recipe for one with pears for the blog this autumn. Big hug, xx
Hi what can I use instead of oats? Thanks
Hi Shamani, you can use ground quinoa flakes or add another gluten-free flour instead.
