A delightful and zesty dessert that balances sweet and tart notes using fresh cranberries.

  • Total Time: 135 minutes
  • Yield: 8 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 200g gingernut cookies
  • 100g vegan butter
  • 300g fresh cranberries
  • 100g granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
  • 1/2 cup almond milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Crush the gingernut cookies into fine crumbs and mix with melted vegan butter. Press the mixture into a tart pan to form a crust and bake for 10 minutes. Allow it to cool.
  2. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine fresh cranberries and granulated sugar, cooking for 5 to 7 minutes until the cranberries burst. In a separate bowl, whisk cornstarch and almond milk until smooth, then stir this into the cranberry mixture and cook until thickened, about 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat and add vanilla extract and lemon juice.
  3. Pour the cranberry curd into the cooled crust, smooth the top, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving.

Notes

For gluten-free options, use gluten-free gingernut cookies or make a homemade crust with gluten-free flour. Garnish the tart with fresh cranberries or powdered sugar for added appeal.
