lemon blueberry tarts
I came up with this when needing to take SCD treats that were also dairy free, to a gathering. They turned out very tasty. This recipe can likely easily swap out different flavors for fun variations. I may try a coconut lime mango version. Orange-vanilla would be a tasty flavor, and raspberry or strawberry would be easy to do.

How To Make lemon blueberry tarts
-
1Pour 1/2 cup of the coconut milk liquid into a microwavable Pyrex measuring cup. Then dump the rest in a high-powered blender.
-
2Add the vanilla, almond extract, lemon flavor, lemon juice, honey, and salt into the blender as well. Blend till very frothy.
-
3Microwave the 1/2 cup of coconut milk in the Pyrex dish until very warm. 30 seconds does it in my high-powered microwave.
-
4Gradually whisk in the gelatin until it is all dissolved. If it is having troubles dissolving, try warming it a little more in the microwave.
-
5Add the gelatin mixture to the blender and run the blender again until well combined and frothy.
-
6Now add the frozen blueberries, and blend again until smooth.
-
7Pour into a coconut-oil coated dish or into cupcake molds with a paper liner. Place into the freezer for 15 minutes to get it to set quickly, to preserve the foamy texture that was whipped into it by the blender, then move to the fridge. The coldness of the frozen blueberries should also help with it setting quickly. It will set to a jiggly, creamy consistency that is somewhere between mousse, cheesecake, and jello.

8This is delicious served topped with a piece of this candy, but don’t add until serving time, to keep the texture of the candy in tact. www.justapinch.com/recipes/dessert/candy/cacao-butter-honey-candy-bark-scd.html
Alternatively, an SCD shortbread cookie would be delicious crumbled on top or served with it. Or a honey sweetened nut streusel topping sprinkled on top, kind of like one would make for a cobbler. - Last Step: Don't forget to share!
