Silky-smooth vanilla custard with lightly sweet vegan crust and fresh berries. It’s incredibly creamy and delicious. It’s vegan, gluten-free and refined sugar-free.
The crust is made from hazelnut meal, gluten-free oat flour, coconut oil and maple syrup. The silky-smooth and creamy vanilla custard filling is made from coconut milk, soy milk, vanilla bean paste and maple syrup. And It’s very easy to put together. 🙂
