Prep time: 30 minutes
Cook time: 25-30 minutes

Ingredients:

• 60g walnuts, chopped
• 75g macadamia nuts, chopped
• 75g peanuts, chopped

For the tart base:

• 180g plain flour
• 110g vegan butter, cold & cubed
• 2-3 tbsp ice water

For the vegan caramel:

• 200g granulated sugar
• 60 ml water
• 2 tbsp vegan butter
• 120 ml full-fat coconut milk
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

Method:

1. Preheat the oven to 190C.
2. In a large bowl combine the flour, butter and ice water until a dough forms. Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to roughly ¼-inch thickness.
3. Place the dough into an 8-inch tart pan and trim the edges, then set aside.
4. In a large non-stick pan, mix the sugar and water over medium heat until the sugar dissolves.
5. Use a cooking thermometer and bring the mix to a boil. Cook for 7-8 minutes or until the mix reaches 160C - 180C and turns amber.
6. Remove from the heat and immediately whisk in the vegan butter, coconut milk and vanilla extract until smooth. Let the caramel cool for 5 minutes.
7. Add the walnuts, macadamia and peanuts to the tart base and pour the caramel sauce on top, then bake the tart for 25-30 minutes or until the filling is golden.
8. Let the tart cool for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
