Portuguese Tarts: Gluten, Sugar, Butter Free
I see Portuguese tarts in just about every cafe and cake shop I walk past. These Portuguese tarts are simple to make and contain no gluten, sugar or butter.
Ingredients for custard:
6 egg yolks
500g of ricotta cheese
1 tsp of vanilla essence
2-4 stevia tabs
1 tsp of cinnamon
1 lemon rind
Ingredients for base:
2 whole eggs
2 handfuls of dates
2 handfuls of desiccated coconut
Method:
Create the base first
Pre-heat oven to 180dg
Crack two eggs into a bowl and whisk
Chop dates and then blend in a high speed blender
Mix ingredients together well
Place 1 tbs of mixture into bottom of a patty pan and pat down evenly
Bake in oven for approximately 15 minutes
While base is baking, make the custard mixture
Separate 6 egg yolks into a bowl
Add 2 stevia tabs and blend until yolks are light in colour
Using a zester, grate the rind of one lemon into the egg mixture
Add vanilla essence and ricotta and mix for approximately 30 seconds with beaters
Pour mixture into patty pans on top of crust and bake in oven for approximately 15-20 minutes
Once top of custard is a light brown colour, the tarts should be ready
Dust with cinnamon before serving
