This recipe was originally created to celebrate our Sponsorship of Pink Ribbon Breakfast 2020. Unfortunately this event has had to be postponed until further notice. Regardless its a lovely recipe and too good not to share.
This no bake tart uses fresh summer plums to add wonderful flavour and colour to a cashew based creamy filling on a walnut and almond base. What's more it's grain free, vegan, gluten free, refined sugar free. You can opt to use mini tart cases for individual portions or one large case.

- 3 Tbsp Maple Syrup
- 2 Tbsp Coconut Oil
Filling:
- 1c Cashews soaked overnight

Method

Pour your tart mixture into earlier prepared tart cases and place in the freezer for at least two hours to set.
