Introduction
The lemon tart is a refreshing French dessert that usually consists of a pastry shell with a lemon-flavoured filling. Although delicious, the classic recipe is high in sugars and fats and may not be suitable for those on a specific diet.
Our gluten-free and vegan lemon tart, instead, is a healthier and allergen-free variation. It is in fact our mission at Foodaciously to help you enjoy the food you love without having to worry about diets and allergies, and you can get two healthy recipes a week just by subscribing to our newsletter.
Ground toasted oat flakes and cashew nuts, flaxseeds, and maple syrup make a gluten-free crust that bursts with flavour and nutrients. In fact, these ingredients provide loads of fibres (an amazing 4g for serving!) and also antioxidants and omega-3.
The pastry case is then filled with a tangy and creamy vegan lemon curd. You can find our easy step-by-step recipe here. We recommend preparing the lemon filling ahead and keep it in the fridge before use.
