RAW VEGAN + OIL FREE MINI LEMON TART!! 💛 - Food Photography
ANOTHER summer recipe for you, and for me 😋 hehe. Because why not!? Summer is upon us very shortly, and this is the perfect treat!
Raw & vegan deserts are one of my weaknesses. And if you haven’t already indulged in some raw goodies, be careful they may become yours too!
I shouldn’t keep you, you want this delicious recipe right! Let’s get into it! 💛
RAW VEGAN + OIL FREE MINI LEMON TARTS
Prep time: 30 minutes
Cook time: 1 hour
Total time: 1 hour 30 minutes
Yield: 3 mini tarts
Ingredients:
For the crust:
1/2 cup of almond meal (from making homemade almond milk - nothing goes to waste!)
5 pitted medjool dates
1/4 cup raisins
1/4 cup coconut shreds
1 tbsp maple syrup
For the filling:
1/2 cup of cashews (soaked for 2 hours prior to use)
Coconut cream from 1 can of full fat coconut milk
1 tbsp of maple syrup
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice + zest of the lemon
1/2 tsp turmeric (for the yellow colour)
1 1/2 tsp of agar agar powder
1/2 cup of water
Instructions:
Add all crust ingredients to a food processor and pulse until combined & sticky
Add dough to mini tart pans, and press with your fingers until it is all evenly saturated
Put in the freezer while you prepare the filing
Add all filling ingredients except for agar agar powder and water to a blender and blend until smooth
Add water & agar agar powder to a small bowl, and place this bowl over a pot boiling water (double boiler), just to heat & activate it very gently. Once water starts to gel up a tiny bit, remove from heat & add mixture to the blended filling right away, be quick as the gelatin will set fast.
Pour filling mixture into the tart pans, and tap on the counter to even the top out.
Place back into the fridge for 1 hour to allow the filling to gel up, and you’re ready to serve!
ENJOY! 💛
Looks so yummy will try it for sure after reaching home.
Awesome! @steem0 I hope you enjoy!! 🙌🏼
Yeah I loved it
Mmm what a perfect dessert!! Your tarts look amazing! And the flavour combos are perfect, I love lemon flavoured anything :)
Thank you haha! It is seriously one of my favourites too! Reminds me of lemonade and I loveeeee lemonade 😍
I love the shot and raw vegan sweets are so delicious - I wonder why there are still so many people wasting time with their baked cakes 😄
Thank you! Haha I dabbled in my fair share of vegan baked sweets, I have a MUCH more fun time making raw goodies :) plus they’re so much more delicious in my opinion :)
So true, first few times I experimented with raw sweets, I had to think of raw cookie tough that we used to munch while baking back in the days - but this time it was not causing any stomach problems afterwards 😁
