If you’ve got rhubarb, you’ve gotta try this pretty fruit tart! The subtle sweetness of pear perfectly balances the assertive tartness of rhubarb, while freshly grated ginger adds depth, and a little maple syrup rounds out the sweet-tart flavor perfectly. The oil-free oat crust gets its richness from a handful of almonds ground with the rolled oats and some almond butter added at the end. We prefer using red rhubarb over the old-fashioned variety for its color and sweeter taste. Serve this toothsome rhubarb tart as it is, with Vanilla Nice Cream, or Aquafaba Whipped Cream.
Tips: To store, cover tart and store at room temperature for 1 day.
To make this gluten-free be sure to use certified gluten-free rolled oats.
