This vegan tart features all my favourite dessert flavours in one. Salty peanuts, rich chocolate and a sweet and gooey caramel. The flavour is of course heavily inspired by a classic snickers bar, but uses a wider range of textures with a buttery tart crust and smooth ganache topping in addition to that classic peanut caramel filling. I hope you give this a go and love it as much as I did!
Ingredients:
Tart crust
200g all purpose flour
40g cocoa powder
110g vegan buttery spread
0.33 tsp fine table salt
80g granulated sugar
25g plant based milk
Peanut caramel filling
100g full fat coconut milk (Set in fridge overnight and use the thick layer that forms at the top)
200g brown sugar
A pinch of salt
80g unsalted vegan butter*
200g salted peanuts
*I recommend using a block butter that is hard at room temperature, this will help the filling set better in the tart pan.
Chocolate ganache topping
180ml canned coconut milk
150g vegan chocolate
Method:
To make the crust, mix all ingredients together in a bowl until well combined. Press the mixture into a tart pan about 20cm in diameter. Poke a few holes in the crust, cover it with baking paper and pour in some dried peas or baking beans to avoid it from puffing up in the oven. Bake in a preheated oven at 180 degrees Celsius for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven, remove the baking beans and parchment paper and let it cool.
Melt all ingredients for the caramel filling (except for the peanuts) together over low-medium heat and leave to simmer for 5 minutes, stirring as needed. Let cool and transfer to a bowl. Roughly chop 200g of salted peanuts and stir through the caramel. Pour the filling into the tart pan and place it in the fridge to cool for at least 30 minutes before adding your ganache topping. To make the ganache, chop the chocolate and add to a bowl. Heat the coconut milk in a saucepan until it just starts to simmer and pour it over the chopped chocolate. Leave it for 2 minutes before stirring to form a smooth ganache. Pour the ganache on top of the tart, spread it out evenly and leave in the fridge to set overnight. Enjoy!
