Today, I am sharing my recipe for my nut, gluten, dairy and refined sugar free Raw Strawberry Mousse Tart.
I was recently asked to come up with a nut free base that could be used in any of my raw slices and tarts (eg Raw Lemon Tart, Raw Cherry Ripe Slice or Raw Chocolate Orange Tart).
So, I came up with this amazing but simple base that consists of medjool dates and shredded coconut.
This base also works really well on its own as Coconut & Date Bars which are perfect for children’s lunchboxes.
For the strawberry mousse filling, I used Great Lakes Gelatin that I received from Optimoz.
I am a big fan of the gelatin and have used it to make my Vanilla Custard Slice.
You can use any gelatin to make this recipe, however, if you after a good quality gelatin, then I highly recommend Great Lakes.
I have also included the Thermomix method below.
Enjoy,
