As the weather warms up and more sunlight streams inside, a whole new level of inspiration hits our kitchens. Now that springtime is here, it's time to utilize fresh produce in all your recipes. This refreshing dessert was made with that berry much in mind. If a Coconut Fruit Tart, filled with three amazing layers (and your collagen fix via Vital Proteins Collagen Creamer® in Coconut) — each even better than the next — doesn't sell you, the fact that it's also no-bake will.
In addition to the flavors, the texture of the sweet, chewy graham cracker and coconut crust perfectly complements the fluffy cheesecake filling. We added both coconut shreds and Collagen Creamer™ supplement in Coconut ($29; shop now on vitalproteins.com) to the filling to boost the flavor, plus increase your daily collagen intake!
Besides being incredibly delicious, this eye-catching berry topping is actually super simple and makes even first-time bakers look like a total pro at dessert decoration. Simply grab your favorite fruit, slice and decorate until the full surface is covered.
You're bound to impress all of your friends and family with this new creation! (Did we mention it's no-bake?) Let's dive in!
