Ya know what’s awesome? When you make a 4 course delicious meal to say thank you to wonderful friends, you feel amazing about it because it’s all entirely cruelty-free (so what better way to say thank you), and then you have leftovers for lunch the next day! I wanted to share the dessert with you, to give you another dish that will totally impress people and have them thinking you are an amazingly fancy chef, when really? It’s so easy. Forgive me for continuing the detour from the promised awesome veggie posts, but I promise I will get back to them. I just had to share this one immediately. :)
You know those fancy fruit tarts that are often served at catered events? They all have a cream layer underneath the fruit, so… not vegan. We were served this at a Rosh Hashanah meal a couple of weeks ago (I think I mentioned it in an earlier post if you remember), and were amazed that we could actually eat it. It looked like one of those fancy tarts, but it didn’t have that dairy layer in there. How nice to be able to replicate such a wonderful dish. And better, this one doesn’t even use any of the vegan milks or cheese products. That layer is simply replaced with apricot jam. (I imagine you could use any other flavor and create different combinations.
So I’m not sure there’s really a recipe here. It’s mostly going to be mix and match with whatever fruit you like / have on hand / is in season, but I’ll lay out the basics for you.
That tart is so pretty! I can’t wait to try making one like it someday.

Yes please do! :D
Um, I’m coming over, mmkay? :)
this looks so gorgeous, and i love how simple it is. i’ve done something similar but with puff pastry. it’s kind of like eating a fancy pop tart.
