Strawberry tart with pastry cream
Homemade strawberry tart: blind-baked crust, vanilla pastry cream and 500 g of strawberries. “All made with my own two hands!”
“Homemade strawberry tart, all made with my own two hands!”: a golden crust, vanilla pastry cream and a crown of bright red strawberries. Axelle made it again on July 29.
The crust is blind-baked for 20 to 25 minutes, then filled with cooled pastry cream. The strawberries go on last, whole or halved.
The base is Marmiton’s top-rated strawberry tart recipe, made here with a store-bought crust as in the photos.
