- Pinch of Nutmeg

Prepare your crust using the recipe for the Végétalien Tarte aux Fruits Frais (The Vegan French Fresh Fruit Tart) – just click here to get that recipe. Don’t bake yet though – stop when you have the dough but before you press it into a tart dish. Form a disk with your dough, wrap it in plastic wrap and put it in the fridge for 20 minutes.
Slice your fruit while your dough is chilling. In a large bowl mix all your filling ingredients with a large wooden spoon until your fruit is coated and any brown sugar clumps are dissolved.
Heat oven to 425.
Once your dough has finished chilling, roll it out on a floured surface a little larger than your tart dish. Then move your dough over and press it into your tart dish. Fold over any extra dough that is hanging over to create a thicker crust along the edges and use wet fingers to smooth out any cracks.
Fill your tart crust with the filling – making sure to make an even layer.
Put your tart in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until your dough is golden brown, your fruit is tender and your brown sugar is syrupy.
Serve warm with some vegan vanilla ice cream and a few episodes of your favorite TV because damn it – you’re worth it!
