    Around town we have these single standing strawberry stands set up 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 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 and the pistachios add a nice textural crunch to the dish. If you’re looking for a fuss free dessert to make in 30 minutes this summer, this tart is perfect! Enjoy!

    Strawberry Tart Ingredients

    One of the reasons we love this delicious Strawberry Tart is because it’s ingredients are really simple. You might even already have them on hand! We especially love this tart during the summer when strawberries are at their peak sweetness. If you happen to get a batch of strawberries that are not as sweet as you might like, you can toss them in a little bit of lemon juice and sugar to add a touch of sweetness. Here are the ingredients in our un-fussy Strawberry Tart Recipe:

    • 6 ounces cream cheese, softened
    • 3 tablespoons honey, plus more for drizzling
    • 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
    • 18 to 20 strawberries, hulled and thinly sliced crosswise
    • ¼ cup crushed pistachios

    How to make a Strawberry Tart

    1. Bring cream cheese and puff pastry to room temperature. Preheat oven to 400˚F.
    2. Place cream cheese and honey into a mixing bowl and beat together.
    3. Place your puff pastry sheet onto a parchment lined baking sheet. Spread honey whipped cream cheese in an even layer leaving half an inch edge.
    4. Spread strawberries over the cream cheese in a single, even layer, before stacking the remaining strawberries.
    5. Fold in the ½ inch puff pastry border and place tart into the oven.
    6. Remove tart from oven and drizzle honey and sprinkle chopped pistachio over the top. Allow the tart to cool for 15 minutes before you cut into it and serve.

    Strawberry Tart FAQs

    How do I keep the bottom from getting soggy?

    A soggy crust is a huge bummer. Ideally, you eat this tart the day you make it. However, because we make our tart with puff pastry, you can easily reheat and re-crisp up the bottom.

    You can reheat in the oven at 250° until it’s heated through. You can also place the pieces in a nonstick skillet heated on low heat until it crisps up.

    Do I need to refrigerate the tart?

    Yes. Our filling has dairy in it, so it’s best kept in the refrigerator for up to three days.

    RECIPE BY Teri & Jenny
    Prep Time: 8 mins
    Cook Time: 22 mins
    Total Time: 30 mins
    Servings: 9

      INGREDIENTS  

    • 6 ounces cream cheese, softened
    • 3 tablespoons honey, plus more for drizzling
    • 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
    • 18 to 20 strawberries, hulled and thinly sliced crosswise
    • ¼ cup crushed pistachios

      INSTRUCTIONS  

    • Preheat oven to 400˚F.
    • Place cream cheese and honey into a mixing bowl and beat together until light and fluffy, about 1 minute.
    • Place puff pastry sheet onto a parchment lined baking sheet and spread honey whipped cream cheese onto the surface, in an even layer.
    • Spread strawberries over the cream cheese, leaving a ½ inch border, in a single, even layer, before stacking the remaining strawberries.
    • Fold in the ½ inch puff pastry border and place tart into the oven.
    • Bake tart for 18 to 22 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the strawberries have caramelized.
    • Remove tart from oven and drizzle honey over the top. Sprinkle pistachios over the top.
    • Allow tart to cool, about 15 minutes before slicing and serving.

      NOTES  

    • *Makes 1 8”x8” tart
    • Honey and cream cheese mixture can be made ahead of time and refrigerated for up to 3 days.
    • When ready to use, allow cream cheese mixture to sit at room temperature for at least 1 hour to soften, which will make it easier to spread.
    • Strawberries can be cut up to 2 days ahead of time and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator. If strawberries get too juicy when cut, gently blot with paper towel before arranging on tart to prevent tart from getting soggy.

      This was delicious and super easy! I used the full 8 oz package of cream cheese and it turned out great. (And has a lovely presentation as well!)

      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!

      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 looks amazing! Can’t wait to try it. I think I might add a little rose water to the cream cheese? Hmmm….
