Ingredients

WHITE PASTRY CRUST
1 cup cashews
3/4 cup macadamia nuts
1/4 cup dried unsweetened coconut (shaved)
2 tablespoons coconut oil (melted)
1 tablespoon agave nectar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon lemon zest (finely chopped)
1 teaspoon vanilla powder
Pinch of sea salt
VANILLA CUSTARD FILLING
2 cups cashews
1/2 cup agave nectar
1/3 cup water
1/4 cup lemon juice
2 teaspoons vanilla powder
Pinch of sea salt
APRICOT TOPPING
6 to 8 apricots
2 tablespoons lemon juice

Recipe Directions

1. Process the macadamia nuts and cashews in the food processor until a meal forms.

2. Add the rest of the ingredients and process until the dough is sticky.

3. Empty into a tart pan and firmly press the dough into place being sure to leave a 1/4 inch lip around the edges.

4. Set in the freezer.

VANILLA CUSTARD FILLING

5. Blend all the ingredients until completely smooth.

6. Pour into the pie crust and smooth over with a spatula.

APRICOT TOPPING

7. Pit and slice the apricots length wise and lightly dip them in the lemon juice. This will prevent the apricots from browning.

8. Arrange them over the top of the tart.

Bees Knees Kitchen's Thoughts

By Bees Knees Kitchen

I never noticed apricots while living in the States.

But after visiting Switzerland, I am obsessed with their super sweet flavor.

This Swiss apricot tart has a vanilla custard filling over a light white pastry crust and topped with lovely apricots!
