Ingredients
  

For the Crust
  • 1 cup Ground Almonds Substitute with store-bought ground almonds if desired.
  • 1/2 cup Oat Flour Easily made by pulverizing oats in a blender.
  • 1/4 cup Cornflour (Cornstarch) Use tapioca starch or arrowroot powder as alternatives.
  • 2 tablespoons Maple Syrup Substitute with icing sugar mixed with water for a similar effect.
  • 1/4 cup Coconut Oil Melted vegan butter can work as a substitute.
For the Raspberry Curd
  • 2 cups Raspberries Fresh berries are ideal, but frozen work well too.
  • 1/2 cup Aquafaba Liquid from cooked or canned chickpeas.
  • 1 teaspoon Xanthan Gum Recommended for a better meringue consistency.
  • 1/2 cup Powdered Sugar Can replace with coconut sugar for a different flavor profile.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine ground almonds, oat flour, and cornflour. Add maple syrup and melted coconut oil, mixing until uniform. Press into tart cases and poke holes to prevent bubbling.
  2. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake crusts for 15-20 minutes until lightly golden. Cool completely on a wire rack.
  3. Thaw raspberries in a saucepan over low heat, then use a sieve to separate juice from seeds. Blend raspberry puree with drained cashews until smooth, then combine with maple syrup, cornflour, and melted coconut oil in the saucepan and heat until thickened.
  4. Pour the thickened raspberry curd into cooled tart shells and refrigerate for at least 4 hours to set.
  5. Whip aquafaba in a clean bowl until soft peaks form, then gradually add powdered sugar and whip until stiff peaks. Top tarts with meringue and toast lightly.

Notes

Ensure all equipment for aquafaba is grease-free. For nut-free, substitute ground almonds with sunflower seed flour. Store pre-baked shells in an airtight container to avoid crumbling. Allow tarts to set for at least 4 hours for best texture.
