Pies and Tarts

Category

There’s nothing like a homemade pie or tart to make a kitchen feel warm and inviting. These gluten free recipes bring all the flavour and charm of the classics, with flaky crusts, luscious fillings, and a little extra love in every bite.

From fruit-filled tarts to rich chocolate pies, each recipe is tested to ensure a tender, buttery crust and perfectly baked filling. Whether it’s a holiday dessert, a weekend treat, or a special occasion, these pies and tarts are designed to impress.

Gluten free butter tarts are one of those timeless Canadian treats that never fail to impress. With their flaky, tender crust and perfectly gooey, caramel-like filling, they’re the kind of dessert that brings instant nostalgia, whether you grew up baking them or discovered them later in life. This gluten free version delivers everything you love about traditional butter tarts, but with a crust that’s soft, delicate, and completely gluten free.

The filling bakes up glossy, rich, and just the right amount of sticky, making these tarts irresistible whether you like them plain, or packed with raisins. They’re easy to make, freezer-friendly, and honestly… dangerously good warm from the oven. Perfect for holiday gatherings, dessert trays, or enjoying with a cup of tea any time of year.

Soft, chewy gluten free nougat packed with pistachios, almonds, and dried cranberries. A festive homemade candy that’s perfect for gifting during the holidays.

If you love lemon desserts, this Gluten Free Lemon Tart is going to be your new favourite. It’s bright, silky, and perfectly tangy, the kind of dessert that wakes up your taste buds in the best way. The filling is smooth and lemony with just the right balance of sweetness and citrus, all tucked inside a buttery gluten free tart crust that bakes up beautifully crisp.

I love this tart because it looks fancy and elegant, but it’s actually incredibly simple to make. No complicated steps, no special equipment, just whisk, bake, chill, and enjoy. It’s the perfect dessert for spring, summer, holidays, or honestly any time you’re craving a fresh, vibrant treat. Especially when Chris asks what I am going to bake next, and asks if I have posted a lemon tart on my blog yet…. It is that good!

Sometimes the simplest recipes pack the most flavour—and this Roasted Tomato Butter is one of those gems. Made with slow-roasted tomatoes and creamy butter, it’s rich, savoury, and a little bit addictive.

I had to pick all my tomatoes from the garden recently as the frost and snow were on their way, so now they’re ripening slowly indoors. That means I only have a few ready at a time, and this recipe is perfect for that. You can make as little or as much as you want—just roast what you have and blend it with butter for a small batch of something truly delicious.

Roasting brings out the tomatoes’ natural sweetness and depth, and when combined with butter, garlic, and a touch of salt, you get a spread that feels fancy but couldn’t be easier to make. I love it on warm gluten free bread, stirred into pasta, or melted over grilled veggies or chicken. It’s a simple way to capture the last bit of garden flavour before winter fully sets in.

There’s something special about a galette—rustic, simple, and effortlessly beautiful. This gluten-free apple galette is one of my favourite ways to showcase fresh apples. It has all the charm of apple pie without the fuss of a lattice top or crimped edges. Just roll out your dough, pile on the apples, and fold the edges over. Easy, approachable, and always a crowd-pleaser.

The filling is lightly spiced and sweetened to let the apples shine, while the crust is flaky, buttery, and gluten-free (of course!). Whether you’re baking in peak apple season or just craving something cozy, this galette hits all the right notes.
