About this recipe
Strawberry, Peach and Kiwi Tart Thermomix TM7 is the fresh fruit dessert recipe that turns summer berries and stone fruit into a bakery-style showpiece on your own kitchen table. Searching for an easy tart recipe for your all-in-one kitchen machine? This one delivers on every level: a crisp, buttery shortcrust made from plain flour, cold unsalted butter, egg and a pinch of sea salt, filled with a delicate vanilla cream, then finished with glossy slices of strawberry, peach and kiwi. The TM7 kneads the pastry in minutes and blends the cream filling to a silky consistency without a single lump, so even nervous bakers get a professional result. Serve it at a garden party, a birthday brunch or a relaxed weekend dessert, and watch the jewel-toned fruit disappear slice by slice. It is the kind of dessert that looks labour-intensive but is honestly simple when your kitchen machine does the heavy lifting.
Preparation tips
- Keep the unsalted butter and egg well chilled before making the pastry, as cold fat is what gives the tart base its crisp, crumbly structure rather than a tough, dense result.
- Brush the arranged strawberries, peach and kiwi slices lightly with warmed apricot jam to create a glossy finish and keep the fresh fruit looking vibrant for hours on the buffet table.
- Pat the kiwi and peach slices dry with kitchen paper before arranging them on the vanilla cream, since excess fruit juice would soften the pastry base and make the tart soggy.
Recipe variations
- Make it lactose-free by replacing the unsalted butter with a plant-based baking margarine and using a lactose-free vanilla cream filling; the strawberry, peach and kiwi topping stays exactly the same.
- For a festive winter version, swap the peach and kiwi for clementine segments and pomegranate seeds, keeping the strawberries for colour, and dust the finished tart with a little icing sugar for a holiday feel.
Thermomix TM7 Benefits
- Kneading the flour and cold butter in the Thermomix takes just moments and gives the tart base an even, crumbly texture
