We can't help it. Some times we just NEED comforting food, especially after a bad day, or a bad week that is, running around, errands, work, arguments, ugh ... and then you stop and you know you deserve a moment for yourself. And chocolate definitely is in my top 5 basic commodities to pamper myself. Raise your hand if you are like me in this!
And maybe it's also cold and rainy outside... Well, my friend, this double chocolate, pear & rum tart is what you need. And it happens to be gluten free and vegan too. So everyone can be properly comforted 😉
I made this chocolate and pear tart one evening a while back when we had friends over for dinner, it actually had been a last minute idea and I was strongly hoping it would work and come out tasty. And thankfully it was a success, everybody loved it and couldn't believe it was all gluten / dairy / egg free! Yasssss
Since then, my sweetheart asked me over and over to bake it again, so I obliged and decided I'd share the recipe with you too, OF COURSE.
And as asual, I'll be SO glad if you let me know if you try this recipe for the gluten free vegan chocolate and pear tart and what you think about it!
