Special Note: For the rosewater, I got it at an ethnic grocer location. If you don’t have it, you can easily make it by taking fresh rose petals, boiling in water (two times the amount of rose petals) for about 15 minutes and straining the water out after it cools. Orange blossom or almond extract may work as well.

You can use a food processor or a power blender (such as a Blendtec or Vitamix) for this recipe.

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cartons of freshly sliced strawberries see directions for strawberry flowers

Crust:

  • 1/2 cup mulberries we like Navitas Naturals
  • 3/4 cup gluten-free oats make sure they are not contaminated by wheat fields
  • 1/4 cup pecans
  • 1 large date chopped and soaked
  • 2 tsp maple syrup optional
  • pinch of salt

Lemon Rose Custard Cream:

  • 4 tablespoons lemon juice about 2 lemons + zest from 1 lemon*
  • Flesh from 1 large young coconut we use a Coco-Jack!
  • 2 dates
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tsp rose water
  • 1 tsp vanilla powder you can use extract, it will just make the cream a little darker

Instructions
 

  • CRUST
  • For Blendtec: Adds oats and pecans into blender jar, secure lid. Blend on MED-HIGH speed until ground (about 10-15 seconds). Add rest of ingredients and blend on MED-HIGH speed until smooth
  • For Vitamix: All all ingredients to your jar. Start on Variable Speed 1, turn machine on and increase to Speed 10/High and blend until smooth.
  • Press into 4-6 tartlet pans. Careful to press into the corners so you get a good shape.
  • Put the tartlet pans in the freezer for 1-2 hours or until they are easily removed. Or just serve the tartlets in the pans.
  • While the tartlet pans are freezing, open up a coconut and puree the custard cream ingredients.

    CUSTARD CREAM
  • Add all ingredients into your blender jar, secure lid and puree on HIGH until smooth.
  • For Blendtec: Speed up to 5 for 20 seconds then up to 7 until it turns off.
  • For Vitamix and other variable speed blenders: Speed #2 for 40 seconds, Speed #1 to start then increasing to Speed # 5 every 10 sec
  • Once you are ready to serve, remove the tartlets from the freezer and fill each tartlet with about 3 spoonfuls of custard cream each.

  • INSTRUCTIONS FOR STRAWBERRY FLOWERS
  • (Note: You can also just lay the slices on the top)
  • Slice strawberries like petals by slicing horizontal slices. Chop off the stem and keep slicing.
  • With a round cookie cutter or small espresso cup, create your outer circle of strawberries with each strawberry overlapping at least a quarter of the one before. Use your largest slices on the outside and use the smaller petal slices as you work your way into the center.
  • If you have a tiny circle round cookie cutter, use that as a guide, or freestyle your petal by continuing to make small overlapping circles with your slices.
  • After about 3 circle rows, you should be at the center. Put your tiniest slices in the center and you are done.

Notes

* If you prefer a less tart taste, decrease lemon to 2 tablespoons or one lemon.

BLENDER BABES RECIPE TESTER NOTES

“Kind of reminded me of a strawberry lemon cheesecake, but a bit more tart.  A strawberry tart. YUM!! I loved this thing. I inhaled it!”

“This was easy to make. I’m sure easier when you have the correct pans, and I didn’t let the crust freeze enough.  However, it was delicious! Just let that baby crumble and eat it! Yum.”

It reminded me of this fancy french restaurant located in St. Augustine, FL. They served this amazing dessert with actual rose petals that are coated with sugars. So DELICIOUS!!! So this recipe reminded me soooo much of that place but healthier and DIY French dessert type 😉 People will be shocked when they find out that YOU made them when it looks so FANCY and PRETTY to eat!”

Hi there, I'm Michaell! One year ago, I made the decision to stop eating processed foods. My challenge: my husband is such a picky eater that he would win against a 2 year old. Since many of my friends come to me for recipes on how to eat nutrient-rich foods, while still eating what they like, I decided to start a food blog. Every Friday I launch a new family friendly recipe that even the pickiest eaters will eat. Join my mailing list on my blog - Foodscape - or add me to your social media so I can share with you too!
