Vegan Lemon Tart
Serves 1215 mins prep20 mins cook
My vegan lemon tart is what I bake when I want a break from the chocolate desserts. I use fresh lemon juice, coconut cream, and dates to create a silky citrus filling inside a crisp, nutty crust. This bright and creamy tart is perfect for a light dessert after heavy meals.

Instructions
0 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F / 176 C. 1 Place all crust ingredients into a high-speed food processor and blitz until ingredients come together as a dough. This may take anywhere from 3-5 minutes, scraping down the sides throughout this time. 2 Press the dough firmly and evenly into a 10 inch flan tin, trim the edges of the crust. 3 Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes or until lightly golden. Remove from the oven, set aside to cool. 4 Meanwhile prepare the filling by whisking together the cornflour and soy milk to form a slurry. 5 Whisk into the cornflour mixture the lemon zest, lemon juice, maple syrup and coconut cream. If using turmeric whisk that into the mixture too. 6 Pour the filling mixture into a pot and whisk over medium heat until it thickens. 7 Once thick, pour the filling into the prepared crust and smooth off the top. 8 Place the tart into the fridge to set for at least 2 hours or overnight. 9 Once the filling has set, decorate the top of the tart with whipped coconut cream, toasted shredded coconut, lemon slices or any of your favorite toppings.View original recipe
