Ingredients
Vanilla Sauce:
2 cups coconut cream*
1/2 cup date paste**
¼ cup grass-fed or plant-based butter or ghee
1 teaspoon vanilla
Pie Filling
4 ripe peaches slices
1 cup blueberries
1 cup vanilla sauce (see above)
Crust:
1.5 cups almond flour (170 g)
1.5 cups tapioca flour (228 grams)
1 teaspoon sea salt (6 grams)
1 teaspoon Guar Gum (2 grams)
2 eggs
1 tablespoon gluten-free baking powder
¼ cup plant-based butter or ghee
1 tablespoon of water at a time as needed
Crumble:
¼ dough ball
1 cup walnuts or mixed nuts
1 teaspoon cinnamon
¼ cup grass-fed, plant-based butter or ghee
Instructions
- *To make coconut cream open a can of coconut milk. The coconut fat will have separated from coconut water. Remove fat from the can and transfer to a bowl. Feed the coconut water to your cat!
- **Healthy (Paleo) Date Paste
- To make the vanilla sauce: In a food processor or blender add coconut cream, date paste, butter, and vanilla. Puree until smooth. Transfer to a saucepan. On low heat, heat sauce. Keep warm.
- To make the pie filling, preheat oven to 350 F (170 C). In a bowl combine peach slices and blueberries. Fold in vanilla sauce. Set aside.
- To make the crust add dough dry ingredients to a bowl or to the bowl of food processor or mixer. Add eggs and plant-based butter. Mix until butter is well mixed. Add water as needed. Mix until you have a sticky dough. Transfer dough to parchment. Roll into a ball. Cut off ¼ of the ball (to use for the crumble and set aside. Re-roll dough into a ball again. Cover with another piece of parchment. Roll into a circle about 6 to 7-inches in diameter. Remove the top piece of parchment and smooth out the rough edges into a symmetrical circle. Replace parchment. Flip dough in parchment over and roll dough about 1-inch in diameter larger than the standard size (9″) pie plate.
- Remove top parchment again. Place the pie plate face side down on dough. Flip over so dough is inside the plate. You will have to fix the broken edges, using pieces of the thicker sides to patch up the thinner sides so that the sides of the dough is uniform. No worries. You won’t see the patchwork.
- Par-bake the crust for 10 minutes. Remove. Let cool.
- To make the crumble, in a bowl combine all ingredients. Work together with your fingers to make the crumble. Sprinkle crumble over the tart.
- Replace in oven and bake another 30 minutes until peaches are cooked and soft. Remove from the oven. Let cool. Serve warm or hot.
Notes
- Use any fruit combination you choose for this tart. The recipe baking temperature and time is an estimate. Follow your own oven’s temperature and cooking time. It takes a gas oven 10-15 minutes to reach the desired temperature. Electric ovens can take 10 minutes longer than that. The age of your oven will also determine the temperature, time for roasting or baking, and where you want to place your dish in the oven. The bottom of your oven may be hotter than the top, depending on its condition. This also includes where to set your dish under the broiler. So use your own best judgment based on the type, condition, and age of your oven. Prep times will also vary depending on how slow or quickly you like to work.
