METHOD
- Pop the SASKO CAKE WHEAT FLOUR, butter and sugar into a food processor and blitz until it resembles breadcrumbs.
- Whisk together the egg and the water and add to the flour mixture, then blitz until the pastry comes together to form a ball.
- Cover with Clingfilm and pop into the fridge to chill for 30 mins.
- Preheat your oven to 180°C and grease a 23cm round tart pan with a removable bottom.
- Dust your work surface with a little SASKO CAKE WHEAT FLOUR then roll the pastry out to fit the tart pan.
- Transfer the pastry to the tart pan and gently press the pastry into the sides -leave a slight overhang of pastry incase the pastry shrinks slightly, which you can cut off after baking.
- Poke a few wholes around the base of the pastry with a fork and bake blind* for 15 mins.
- Then bake uncovered for approximately 15 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and the pastry is cooked through.
- Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.
- Whip the cream until stiff peaks form.
- Whisk together the honey, vanilla and cream cheese until you have a smooth, creamy paste.
- Add the pistachios and the cream and fold through until combined.
- Once the pastry case has cooled completely remove it from the casing and place onto a serving dish.
- Spoon in the filling and spread it evenly over the pastry base.
- Decorate the top with Strawberries.
- Heat the honey in the microwave for a few seconds until it is very runny and then gently brush it over the strawberries.
- Scatter over the pistachios.
- Store in the fridge until you’re ready to serve.
