Vegan Blood Orange & Maple Syrup Filo Pastry Tart

The Balanced Kitchen
Prep Time 20 minutes
Cook Time 6 minutes
Total Time 26 minutes
Servings 6

Ingredients
  

  • 6 filo pastry sheets
  • 4 blood oranges peeled and sliced 1cm thick each
  • 300 mls coconut yoghurt for serving
  • Maple syrup for serving
  • rapseseed oil for brushing over the filo

Instructions
 

  • While preparing the filo pastry, ensure your hands are always wet by quickly holding them under a running tap between layering each sheet.  Filo dries out very quickly so you need to handle it with wet hands.
  • Begin by laying one sheet of the filo on a round pizza baking tray.
  • Wet your hands and carefully lay another piece of the filo on top but not directly, you want to end up creating a circle with the 6 sheets so each piece should be turned a few cm's to the right.
  • Continue the above step by repeating with all 6 sheets.
  • Scrunch the edges of the filo sheets so they are all within the pizza baking tray. Brush with a little oil over the whole filo pastry base, center and edges.
  • Place in the oven and cook on a medium heat for about 5-7 minutes until golden and crispy.  Remove from the oven and allow to cool.
  • Only when you are ready for serving, add the orange slices to the filo base.  If you add too early it will become soggy!
  • Cut the tart into desired sized pieces, drizzle with Maple syrup and add a scoop of coconut yoghurt and serve!
