Passion Fruit and Lime Tartlets

Today’s recipe is dedicated to you, my readers. You’re the reason why, an year after my first post, I’m still creating and sharing food sensitivies friendly recipes. One year and more than 70 recipes after, I thank you for reading and for supporting me during this great journey of culinary findings. And I can’t wait to share this one with you…

Before my food intolerances, Passion Fruit Tart was definitely one of my most popular desserts. I used to make it in the summer for my family and friends and it normally didn´t last long…

The original recipe is made with Marie Biscuit and sweetened condensed milk. For this new free from version I was able to keep the same creamy and crumbly texture. I made a gluten and lactose free custard with corn starch, lactose free milk and eggs and used lactose and gluten free Marie biscuits. I’ve also added lime for a perfect balance between sweet (from the biscuits), tart (from the passion fruit) and tangy (from the lime). The result is a fresh and delicious dessert, surprisingly identical to the original one but adapted to sensitive guts!

Enjoy 🙂
