American Flag Fruit Tarts

These cute and patriotic Mini Fruit Breakfast Tarts have been one of my family's favorite treats for the 4th of July for YEARS! With lots of 5-star ratings, this recipe is honestly such a fun way to celebrate the holiday. The tart shells are naturally sweetened and made with an almond and oat flour base, so they're perfectly crispy, a little crumbly (in the best way), and sweet. They're filled with Greek yogurt for added protein and topped with coconut flakes, fresh berries, and a drizzle of honey to create a festive American flag design that’s almost too cute to eat. These red, white, and blue fruit tarts are perfect for summer holiday parties or just an easy everyday breakfast!

Equipment

Ingredients

Tartlets

  • 2 Tablespoons coconut oil melted and cooled
  • 1 cup finely ground almond flour
  • 1/2 cup oat flour
  • 1 Tablespoon tapioca flour
  • 1 Tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 Tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 Tablespoon very cold water

Toppings

  • 1 cup vanilla Greek yogurt
  • shredded coconut to taste
  • wild blueberries to taste
  • fresh strawberries sliced, to taste
  • 1-2 teaspoons honey for drizzling

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. and prepare a muffin tin with liners.
  • Melt the coconut oil and set it aside to cool.
  • Mix the flours, chia seeds, salt, maple syrup, vanilla, and cold water.
  • Slowly mix in the coconut oil, then use your hands to form the dough.
  • Use a cookie scoop to scoop out the dough, roll into 10-11 balls, and place each one into a muffin tin cavity.
  • Press the dough into the muffin tin into a very thin layer, allowing the dough to come up the sides a bit evenly.
  • Bake for 25-28 minutes, or until the edges begin to brown.
  • Let cool, then carefully remove from the liners and place on a cooling rack.
  • When totally cooled down, fill each tart shell with yogurt and top with shredded coconut.
  • Add blueberries on one corner, then the sliced strawberries to create an American flag (or….just top them however you want).
  • Drizzle with honey and enjoy!

Notes

  • Feel free to add any toppings you want! These would be so good with chocolate chips, peanuts, caramel, and really any type of fruit.
  • The shells will get soggy if they sit too long with the yogurt filling, so I recommend waiting to fill them until right before you serve them. Or you can even freeze them and just thaw them right before serving!
