Vegan Pistachio Tart, Gluten Free

2021-08-13

Jump To Recipe

In the 1960s, the price of pistachios reached the level of truffles; Well, maybe just in the eyes of a little girl, who was watching with amazement (and jealousy) her rich neighbors; Those who immigrated from Egypt and devoured pistachio sacks at a dizzying pace – like there is no tomorrow!😅

In those days, no one dared to imagine, at least not in our humble and tiny neighborhood, baking or making desserts from these rare nuts. So instead, those who have managed to lay their hands on them – preferred to consume them clean – 24 carats solid green gold.

Years have passed; The wheel turned, and the pistachio, still considered noble – became affordable. In any case, you no longer have to sell a house for this green treasure.

Thanks to those good old days, pistachios will always have a warm place in my palate. However, nowadays, I do not hesitate to try them in various combinations (in addition to ice cream); The result is outstanding and reveals new flavor layers of this delicious nut.

This time, I went west to French cuisine: I made a vegan pistachio patisserie cream on a crispy bottom of almond and coconut flour.

This recipe is really easy:
Quickly make a crust in a food processor.
Line a pan with it.
Bake for about 15 minutes and let it cool.

Place the ingredients of the pistachio cream in a high-speed blender and blend to a smooth cream. Cook the cream for a few minutes until it starts to bubble; allow the cream to cool; next, spread it on the cooled crust.

Sprinkle chopped pistachios over the pistachio cream and place it in the refrigerator to set.

Enjoy, and let me know how it turned out. ❤️

    Notes
    • Based on Phillys Glazer’s best selling book, “Sugar-free, gluten-free” and The Vegan Pastry
     
    • I have not tried yet: It may not be necessary to cook the cream, but instead, just let it cool after processing the ingredients in a blender 🙂
