La De Da! Well, have I got a delicious recipe for you?

A nutty base, the most gorgeous gooey almond filing, fresh tart raspberries and a layer of raspberry jam.

Oh, my goodness, it’s good.

What memories does this recipe conjure up for me? Little Mr Kipling Bakewell tarts, which I used to wolf down given the chance when I was little. I’m not sure they were very healthy but i remember and love their almondy deliciousness.

In fact, I’m sure they started my love for frangipane and all almond based desserts–no bad thing I think 😉

My version is just as rich and almondy but happily it’s homemade with natural whole ingredients and refined sugar free. I tested this recipe out on lots of my friends (willing victims)–a very big thumbs up all round!

I hope you enjoy xx

To make the tart

  • Grease a round, loose bottom pie pan with oil.
  • Add all the dry ingredients to a large bowl and mix to combine. Then add in the oil, almond milk and flax egg. Mix throughly to form a dough.
  • Transfer the dough to the pie pan and use your fingers to press into the bottom and up the sides. Poke a few holes with a fork across the bottom.
  • Bake tart for 10 minutes on Gas Mark 4/180c. Remove from the oven. Allow the tart base to cool a little.
  • Layer the jam across the bottom of the tart, then add in the frangipane filling. Top with raspberries and press in a little.
  • Sprinkle a few flaked almonds.
  • Bake for 40-55 minutes or until your filling puffed up and is set. Remove from the oven and allow to cool and before removing the tart pan.

  1. Hi Niki,

    Would you recommend using coconut oil for the tart base, and also thawed frozen raspberries for the filling? Thanks!

    1. Hi Kathleen
      I think that coconut oil should be ok for the base but I wouldn’t recommend using thawed frozen raspberries as I fear there would be too much moisture.
      Love
      Niki xx

  2. Finally I’ve found a vegan Bakewell tart recipe! Are these in Australian or American cups measurement?

    Thanks x

  3. This recipe looks amazing!

    Do you think I could make it with strawberries (I have a huge basket full right now and want to make a cake with them) or would the texture get weird? Maybe if I add them on top after baking the filling?

    Also how big is your pie pan?

    1. Hey Samantha
      Flax eggs are a vegan egg substitute. They act as a binding agent.
      Let me know how you get on!
      Love, Niki xx

    1. Hi Kim
      Yes absolutely, you can use any flour of your choice.
      I just like buckwheat for its nutty flavour and that it’s naturally gluten free.

      Keep me posted.
      Love, Niki xx
