We are re posting this recipe because it’s super easy and really beautiful! Even better if you serve it with some vanilla ice cream on top. Yum. Ok but really strawberries are really happening right now so grab some of those cheap pints and make this. Makes a super good breakfast also!

Around my town we have these single standing strawberry stands set up randomly here and there and I love it! It’s so easy to get persuaded by those big signs and those extra juicy and sweet smell strawberries. I bought an entire flat of them the other day and have been making tons of strawberry things including jams, salsas, salads, etc. Today we have this Strawberry and Pistachio Tart that I’ve also been making with the loads of strawberries I have.
This tart is so easy to make and really tasty. It’s perfect to enjoy with a cup of coffee or tea for breakfast or with a scoop of ice cream for dessert. I also like how simple and pretty this tart is, so it’s also a great crowd pleaser. I might be making this for 4th of July this year to serve with scoops of rich vanilla bean ice cream. So simple and so good. Enjoy! xx, Jenny
Ingredients: Directions:
Strawberry + Pistachio Tart
Makes 1 8”x8” tart
6 ounces cream cheese softened
3 tablespoons honey, plus more for drizzling

18 to 20 strawberries, hulled and thinly sliced crosswise
1/4 cup crushed pistachios
1. Preheat oven to 400˚F.
2. Place cream cheese and honey into a mixing bowl and beat together until light and fluffy.
3. Place puff pastry sheet onto a parchment lined baking sheet and spread honey whipped cream cheese onto the surface, in an even layer.
4. Spread strawberries over the cream cheese, leaving a 1/2 inch border, in a single, even layer, before stacking the remaining strawberries.
5. Fold in the 1/2 inch puff pastry border and place tart into the oven.
6. Bake tart for 18 to 22 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the strawberries have caramelized.
7. Remove tart from oven and drizzle honey over the top. Sprinkle pistachios over the top.
8. Allow tart to cool, about 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
Wow, what an amazing looking tart!!!! Strawberry and pistachio are my favorite!!!!! Have to try making it this weekend.
had to comment after seeing the photograph, it’s so gorgeous I don’t care if it’s edible or not! What a lovely recipe, thank you, great for 4th and other entertaining, flavors though look wonderful too, with cream cheese and pistaccios
This looks amazing! Can’t wait to try it. I think I might add a little rose water to the cream cheese? Hmmm….
Confused on the border, you leave a 1/2″ border but then turn it in 1/2″ but I still see a border. Thanks for helping me on this :)
Lol, you’re absolutely right! It should say leave a 1 inch border, then fold over 1/2 inch. Sorry for the confusion! Updating the recipe now!
This was so delicious, a big hit! I soaked my strawberries in balsamic and a bit of sugar the night before to give them some additional flavor. Worked out great!
