Gluten Free Berry Tart Pie

Who says gluten-free treats can’t be outrageously delicious? We’re about to prove that notion wrong with a mind-blowing gluten-free berry tart pie recipe.
Total Time 1 hour

Ingredients

For the crust:

  • 1 ½ cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup almond flour
  • ½ cup unsalted butter cold and cut into small cubes
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

For the filling:

  • 4 cups mixed fresh berries such as strawberries, blueberries, raspberries
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • Zest of 1 lemon

For the glaze:

  • ¼ cup berry jam or jelly choose a gluten-free variety
  • 1 tablespoon water

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free all-purpose flour, almond flour, granulated sugar, and salt. Add the cold butter cubes and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and vanilla extract. Add the egg mixture to the flour mixture and stir until a dough forms. If the dough seems too dry, you can add a tablespoon of cold water.
  • Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead it a few times to bring it together. Roll out the dough into a circle large enough to fit your tart pan.
  • Grease a tart pan with a removable bottom and carefully transfer the rolled-out dough into the pan. Press it into the bottom and sides of the pan, trimming any excess dough.
  • In another bowl, combine the mixed fresh berries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Gently toss until the berries are coated evenly.
  • Pour the berry filling into the prepared crust, spreading it out evenly.
  • Place the tart pan on a baking sheet to catch any drips and bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
  • While the tart is baking, prepare the glaze. In a small saucepan, heat the berry jam or jelly with the water over low heat until it becomes smooth and pourable.
  • Remove the tart from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Brush the glaze over the top of the tart, coating the berries with a thin layer.
  • Allow the tart to cool completely before slicing and serving. You can refrigerate it for a couple of hours if you prefer it chilled.
