This gluten free tart takes just 20 minutes to bake in the oven so it can be whipped up in no time at all and is great if you've got last minute plans to entertain some friends or family. We've served our gluten free tart with some fresh blueberries but you could use strawberries, raspberries, or any other fruit you fancy! To transform it into a more decadent dessert, try serving this gluten free tart with a generous helping of whipped cream or ice cream. At under 300 calories per serving, this is a great dessert option for when you don't want your healthy eating efforts to go too off track. Instead of making one large tart, you could also buy the smaller tins and make individual portions. They might not take as long to cook though so keep an eye on the oven!
