Description

This Strawberry-Glazed Fruit Tart is a delightful, refreshing dessert perfect for warm weather gatherings. The combination of crisp shortbread crust, juicy pineapple chunks, and fresh strawberries creates a beautiful contrast in textures. The sweet strawberry glaze ties the flavors together, adding a glossy finish that makes this tart look as good as it tastes. It is an elegant yet simple dish that requires no baking of the fruit filling, making it ideal for last-minute entertaining or weekend brunches. Serve chilled for the best flavor and texture, allowing the spices to meld subtly with the fresh fruit.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven according to the shortbread pie shell package instructions.
  2. Prepare the 9-inch shortbread pie shell and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of cinnamon/sugar mixture before baking.
  3. Bake the pie shell until golden brown, then remove from oven and allow to cool completely.
  4. While the shell cools, hull and halve the strawberries and combine with drained pineapple chunks in a large bowl.
  5. Pour the 16 oz jar of strawberry glaze over the fruit mixture and gently fold until all pieces are evenly coated.
  6. Once the crust is cool, spoon the glazed fruit mixture into the pie shell, distributing it evenly.
  7. Sprinkle a little additional cinnamon/sugar over the top of the fruit for extra flavor and aroma.
  8. Refrigerate the tart for at least 1 hour, or preferably overnight, to allow flavors to set.
  9. Serve cold, optionally topped with vegan whipped cream or fresh mint leaves.
