Celebration Mini Fruit Tarts: Paleo, AIP, Low Fodmap

April 13, 2017 By Angie 4 Comments

Mini Fruit Tarts are pretty as a picture and perfect for a celebration table. Gluten, egg and dairy free, the cream is made with coconut milk and gelatin.

With their coconut pastry base filled with pastry cream and topped with glazed fruit, these Mini Fruit Tarts are little wonders. All the more so because they’re dairy free, gluten free and egg free. Which means they’re AIP compliant and allergy friendly. They’re pretty as a picture, and perfect for a celebration spread.

Mini Fruit Tarts for Every Celebration – Gluten Free, Egg Free, Dairy Free

Looking for the recipe? Scroll down.

An arrangement of Mini Fruit Tarts is truly a beautiful thing. Amongst all the other things on the table, the fresh fruit shines brightly, and their mignon proportion promises bite-sized delight. The anticipated contrast of flavours and textures is pure temptation. The biscuity pastry case compliments the delicate pastry cream, which is then woken up with the fruit, both tart and sweet. Visually captivating, they’ll play the role of the centrepiece – but not for long. Way too seductive, they’ll disappear in an instant.

The Challenge of AIP Baking

Lets face it, it’s not easy baking pastries, cakes and tarts without traditional ingredients. Wheat flour and refined sugar impart nuances of flavour that can’t be replicated. The chemical capacity of eggs to emulsify, bind and rise is miraculous. Cream, butter and milk add decadence and elegance to baked sweets and treats. On a healing diet, one could feel deprived. The journey can be arduous, especially around celebration times. The only thing to do, then, is to stride forward gallantly, straight into the foe, heads held high with all the attributes of a person committed to personal growth.

We’ll take a couple of cups of curiosity, a tablespoon of perserverance, and a dash of courage. We’ll mix them together with a fat chunk of creativity, and add just enough humour for it all to come together. We’ll knead it and roll it and form it through our willingness, intelligence and self compassion. And then we’ll bake it with all our love.

Celebration time, friends? We’ll come up with a treat, too right we will!

Paleomantic: Angie - Paleomantic
Serves: 8
Ingredients
  • ½ cup cassava flour
  • ½ cup finely shredded coconut
  • 1 tablespoon muscovado sugar
  • 2 tablespoons soft coconut oil
  • 2 tablespoon water + 1 tablespoon water
  • 2 sheets of gelatin (or 2 teaspoons) + ¼ sheet (1/4 teaspoon)
  • ¾ cup coconut milk
  • 2 teaspoons maple syrup
  • ⅛ teaspoon tumeric
  • ½ banana
  • ½ kiwi
  • 2 strawberries
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F, and line 8 mini tart tins with paper cases.
  2. Place the cassava flour, shredded coconut, muscovado sugar and coconut oil into a bowl and rub between your fingers until it resembles crumbs. Add 2 tablespoons water and mix until it forms a ball. Form 8 balls.
  3. To form the pastry cases, break a small piece of dough from one of the balls and press this into the base of a tart tin. Roll the remainder of the dough into a sausage shape, and press it around the sides of the tin. Be sure to seal the base well, press the dough all the way up to the top edge, and press firmly into the sides of the mould.
  4. Bake the tart cases for 20 minutes and allow to cool completely,
  5. When cool, slide a toothpick between the paper lining and the tin and remove the cases. Gently peel away the paper lining from the pastry, and then pop it all back into the metal tins as before. This will make the handling easier later. Place the tart cases into the fridge to become cold.
  6. Place the 2 sheets/2 teasapoons of gelatin in a small saucepan with just enough coconut milk to cover. Over a very gentle heat, stir continuously until the gelatin has dissolved. Slowly add half of the coconut milk, the maple syrup and the tumeric, stirring continuosly until the gelatin is well amalgamated and the pale yellow stain from the tumeric is uniform. Pour into a small jug, add the remaining coconut milk and stir well, Refrigerate until the cream is just starting to set. Stir well again, and then pour the gelatin cream into each pastry case, stopping just before reaching the rim. Pop them straight back into the fridge again.
  7. Prepare the fruit. Peel the banana and the kiwi. Slice 8 thin discs from the banana. Slice 4 thin discs from the kiwi, and cut each in half. Rinse the strawberries, remove the leaves, and cut them lengthwise into quarters. Using a sharp knife, make 2 slits from just below the top of the strawberry down to the base. Press down lightly with your finger to open the berry.
  8. When the gelatin cream has set, arrange the fruit onto the surface.
  9. Place the remaining gelatin into a small pan. Add one tablesppon of water, and stir over a very gentle heat so as to dissolve the gelatin. Using a pastry brush, paint the fruit with the gelatin glaze. Refrigerate for another 15 minutes to set the glaze, then serve immedietely and devour.

80% of what you look like and how you feel depends 80% of what you look like and how you feel depends on what you put into your mouth. 80%! The other 20% is divided between how you’re moving, how you’re sleeping, how you’re connecting (with others, yourself, nature & the world) and how you’re thinking, your mindset.

The importance of that 80% cannot be overemphasised.

Things we commonly put into our mouth:
🔸 damage our gut
🔸 wreck havoc with our hormones
🔸 mess with our head
🔸 disrupt our metabolism
🔸 send our immune system into overdrive
🔸 send our stress levels skyrocketing

Changing dietary habits is crucial if you want to get your weight, your inflammation and pain, & your stress levels under control.

Essentially, it’s not hard. Pragmatically, it’s hard to change habits.

Helping you to change habits for health is my job, and I love what I do. ❤️

I was lucky. Because Fiorenzo had his own health p I was lucky. Because Fiorenzo had his own health problems, he came on board when I needed to make big changes. We committed together, and it made - it makes - the whole trip so much easier.

Surrounding yourself with people who are encouraging , who believe in your ability to transform & who are not going to sabotage your efforts is super important. 

Who supports you in your efforts to be healthy?

Acknowledge. Embrace. Release. This is an interest Acknowledge. Embrace. Release. This is an interesting one to contemplate, and may be powerful when applied to your health & healing. 

I had to ACKNOWLEDGE that the diet & lifestyle which I was CONVINCED was healthy & ethical was doing me no good. On the contrary, it was taking me towards autoimmune disease.

That was hard.

I had to EMBRACE all those things that I loved: eating habits, belief systems, ways of moving, my business... Embrace them & give thanks for all that they’d given me & taught me.

And I had to RELEASE them.

You know what the interesting thing about “Release” is? It’s that you don’t stop being you. You don’t lose anything. You don’t stop enjoying your time with friends. You don’t lose your qualities of compassion & kindness. You don’t become less. You become more.

Wiser. Stronger. More understanding. Healthier. Happier. More open & resilient.

What do you need to Acknowledge, Embrace and Release?

What gets you down the most? The digestive issues What gets you down the most? The digestive issues - acid reflux, constipation, bloating, cramps? The pain - joint pain, headaches, aching shoulders, back ache? The weak immunity - catching every darn cold and flu that passes? The low energy? The constant hunger? The low self esteem because you can’t figure it out?

Sweet, I got it all figured out. If you’re ticking off symptoms on the list above, then you need to tweak your diet & lifestyle.

It’s not hard on paper, but it can be challenging to put it into practice.

LIFE OR DEATH? That’s the level of stress that y LIFE OR DEATH? That’s the level of stress that your body/brain is subjected to when you’re metabolically trapped in a Carb Burning Cycle. 

All carbs, healthy (like whole grains) and unhealthy (like sweets) are broken down into simple chains in the gut. When they enter the bloodstream IT’S ALL SUGAR. 

⚡️High blood sugar is life threatening so insulin is released to pull it out & store it.
⚡️Low blood sugar is life threatening, so you’ll be manipulated to eat.
⚡️High insulin blocks your ability to burn fat.

Is this really what you want? Is that bread, pasta, cookie & soda habit really worth the stress?

Obviously, there’s more to it than this - but it’s easily explained. The “Carbohydrate / Sugar Burner” post is up on the Home Page.
