Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams all-purpose flour
- 50 grams cane sugar
- 1 pinch salt
- 150 grams vegan butter, chilled
- 3 tablespoons cold water
- 300 grams your choice of vegan fruit jam
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cane sugar, and a pinch of salt.
Cut the chilled vegan butter into small cubes and add it to the flour mixture.
Using your fingers or a pastry cutter, work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs.
Add cold water, one tablespoon at a time, and vanilla extract. Gently mix until the dough begins to form into a ball. Do not overwork the dough.
Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes to firm up.
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
Lightly flour your work surface and roll out the chilled dough to fit a 9-inch tart pan. Press the dough evenly into the pan and trim any excess from the edges.
Spread your choice of vegan fruit jam evenly over the base of the pastry.
Optional: Roll out leftover pastry and cut strips to create a lattice on top of the jam.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown.
Allow the tart to cool in the pan before removing and slicing.
Serve at room temperature or slightly warm. Enjoy your Vegan Classic Jam Tart!
