Equipment

  • 1 Rolling Pin
  • 1 7 inch pie tin
  • Baking beans

Ingredients

For the pastry

  • 200 g plain flour
  • 100 g vegan butter cut into cubes
  • 4 - 6 tsp of plant milk

For the crème pâtissière

  • 3 tbsp cornflour
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 220 ml plant milk
  • 30 g caster sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla bean paste

For the raspberry decoration

  • 200 g raspberries

Instructions

To make the pastry case

  • Add the flour to a mixing bowl along with the vegan butter.
  • Rub the vegan butter and flour between your fingertips until you have a mixture that resembles fine breadcrumbs.
  • Add the plant milk a few tbsp at a time until the pastry comes together into a ball of dough.
  • Wrap the pastry in cling film and leave to rest in the fridge for 30 minutes.
  • While the pastry is resting, pre-heat your oven to 180C/356 F/gas mark 6.
  • Roll out your pastry until it is roughly 2 inches wider than the pie tin all the way around.
  • Carefully line the pie tin pressing the pastry into the corners and grooves.
  • Trim off the excess by rolling your rolling pin over the top of the pie tin.
  • Line the tart tin with baking paper and fill with baking beans.
  • Bake for about 15 minutes or until the pastry is firm to the touch and just going golden.
  • Remove the baking beans and cook for about 5-10 minutes more, until golden brown and crisp.
  • Leave to cool while you make the crème pâtissière

To make the crème pâtissière

  • Add the cornflour to a saucepan along with the cocoa powder.
  • Slowly pour in the plant milk while whisking to make sure you have no lumps.
  • Whisk in the sugar and vanilla bean paste.
  • Place over a low - medium heat and stir as it thickens.
  • If it begins to steam and bubble, take it off of the heat.
  • Leave to cool before assembling the tart.

To assemble

  • To assemble, pipe the crème pâtissière into the bottom of the pastry case.
  • Top with the raspberries in concentric circles.
  • Serve at room temperature.
