Calories 1594 kcal
- 150 grams almond flour
- 30 grams flax meal
- 16 grams psyllium husk powder
- 52 grams vegan butter melted
- 26 grams extra virgin olive oil
- 45-75 ml water
- salt and pepper to taste
Mix all dry ingredients together and using a food processor add in the butter/ coconut oil slowly until it begins to come together like a ball of dough.
Add in water as needed to facilitate it sticking together and form in a ball and put in refrigerator for at least one hour.
Next, after 45 minutes or so, preheat oven to 175 °C (350 °F) and grease a tart pan with vegan butter or oil of choice.
Remove the dough from the fridge and press into a pie tart.
Make sure to use a fork to poke small holes in the tart crust so it doesn’t pop up too much.
Place in the oven and bake for 18-20 minutes until slightly brown.
Top with different savoury toppings of your choice or try my asparagus, red onion jam tart (click here for recipe).
