fruit tart

By khoglan1

Ingredients

• 2 ½ cups walnuts (I used about 1 ¾ cups walnuts, ¾ cup almonds)
• 1 ½ cups dates (don’t forget to buy pitted dates or remove them yourself, which only takes a few minutes and saves money)
• 5 cups fresh or frozen berries (or any fruit)
• 2 tbsp raw honey
• 1 ½ tbsp arrowroot
• 2 tbsp water, or juice from frozen berries
• 1-2 tbsp fresh lemon juice

Preparation

Step 1

Combine nuts and pitted dates in food processor until well ground, but not smooth (about 45 seconds for me). Press into a pie pan and refrigerate.

Thaw the frozen fruit. Place 2 cups of fruit, water, and arrowroot into food processor or blender and puree. (If you’re using some frozen and some fresh fruit, use the frozen for this part).

Place puree into a small saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly for 4 minutes. When puree thickens, remove from heat. Mix into a bowl with the other fruit, raw honey, and fresh lemon juice. Pour mixture into tart shell, cover, and refrigerate for 2-3 hours (or more) before eating.
