Delight your taste buds with this irresistible Dairy-Free Tompouce recipe, a plant-based twist on the classic Dutch pastry. Featuring flaky dairy-free puff pastry and a luscious oat milk custard infused with maple syrup and vanilla, this indulgent treat is completely free of dairy while maintaining the creamy texture you love. A vibrant pink icing tops the pastry for a charming finish, with turmeric providing a natural golden hue to the custard (if desired). Perfect for impressing guests or enjoying as a sweet indulgence, these dairy-free tompouces are surprisingly easy to make and ideal for anyone following a vegan or lactose-free diet. With only 25 minutes of prep and a straightforward assembly process, this recipe transforms traditional baking into a modern, allergy-friendly dessert masterpiece.
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Roll out the dairy-free puff pastry sheet, if needed, and cut it into two equal rectangles. Place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Using a fork, prick holes all over the pastry to prevent it from puffing too much. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Let the pastry cool completely.
In a medium saucepan, combine the oat milk, cornstarch, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and turmeric powder (if using). Whisk until smooth.
Heat the mixture over medium heat, whisking continuously, until it thickens to a custard-like consistency. This should take 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat, transfer the custard to a bowl, and let it cool to room temperature. Once cool, cover with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the surface to prevent a skin from forming, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
Once the pastry and custard are ready, trim the edges of the pastry rectangles for neatness. Spread the chilled custard evenly over one rectangle of pastry.
Place the second rectangle of pastry on top of the custard layer, pressing down gently to sandwich the layers.
In a small bowl, mix the powdered sugar with the dairy-free milk until smooth. Add pink food coloring, if desired, and stir to combine.
Spread the icing evenly over the top layer of pastry. Allow it to set for 10-15 minutes at room temperature.
Using a sharp knife, carefully slice the tompouce into six equal portions. Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
