‘Tis the season for raspberries.  They are dotted like little rubies in gardens and hedgerows all over at the moment.  They are showing up in punnets at farmer’s markets and are lining the chilled produce aisles in supermarkets.

Getting raspberries into your diet while they are in season will bring you great rewards.  Raspberries are incredibly healthful and boast an impressive list of nutrients.  Fresh red raspberries contain significant amounts of vitamins C, K, E, the B vitamins, manganese, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, and copper. They are also a great source of fiber and are rich in various antioxidants.

One thing about raspberries, however, is that once picked or bought they need to be eaten up quickly. They don’t have a long shelf life and can easily become smooshy! That is why we have compiled a mega list of beautiful raspberry tart recipes that will see you through the summer with glorious raspberry desserts.

This recipe by Camille David takes a traditional idea and gives it a twist.  For this Strawberry and Raspberry Tart With Polenta Crust, cornmeal (polenta) is used instead of flour to make a perfectly crunchy crust for this fruit-filled tart.  This recipe has no refined sugar but uses coconut sugar and the natural sweetness of the berries instead.
