This is a great and delicious recipe for strawberry-rhubarb pastry tarts filled with almond frangipane. You can either make homemade puff pastry or use storebought. It’s not to overwhelmingly sweet, it’s just perfectly sweet from the strawberries and perfectly tart from the rhubarb.

It’s our mums favorite sweet dessert, even though she does not like sweet things! She even wanted my strawberry-rhubarb pastry tarts for mothers day and for her 40th wedding day. She really loves them!

You can make the recipe either with store bought puff pastry sheets (I’ve used 1 1/2 sheets) or make your own homemade puff pastry dough! Following is the recipe I’ve used:
How to make my delicious strawberry-rhubarb pastry tarts with homemade puff pastry:
Ingredients for puff pastry:
•300g flour
•2tbsp sugar
•1tsp salt
•300g cold butter, chopped
•150ml ice water
- Process flour, sugar, salt and butter using pulse button until butter is roughly mixed but pieces are still visible. Add water; pulse until mixed. Turn dough onto a clean surface and knead until smooth. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Roll dough on lightly floured surface into a 20cm x 45cm rectangle. Fold short ends in to meet at the center. Fold in half to make a book fold. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Repeat rolling and folding two more times, turnip dough and rolling it out lengthways, opposite to the previous roll. Wrap in plastic; refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Now make the frangipane (Process almonds, sugar and flour until finely ground. Add butter, egg and rosewater, process until smooth) and prepare the rhubarb and strawberries mixed with sugar and rosewater.
- Roll out pastry on parchment paper into a large rectangle, 3mm thick. Cut into 12 rectangles and place on trays. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 200°C.
- Spread frangipane on rectangles leaving a 1,5cm border. Top with rhubarb and strawberries. Roll pastry edges over, press to secure and brush edges with eggwash. Optional sprinkle with pistachios.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden browned and cooked through.


If you have some rhubarb left I would recommend you our delicious Strawberry-Rhubarb Galette, our beautiful Rhubarb lattice Tart or our gluten free polenta-almond mini cakes with rhubarb glaze
