How to Prepare No-Bake Lavender Fig Custard Tart [Vegan]

For the Custard Filling: Start by infusing the coconut milk with lavender. Pour coconut milk into a small saucepan and bring to a gentle boil over medium heat. Reduce heat to low and let the milk simmer for about 20-30 minutes until it smells and tastes like lavender. Prepare the crust in the meantime
For the Crust: Place the oats into the food processor and blend until broken down. Add the rest of crust ingredients and blend until you get a sticky dough
Press the dough into an 8×8-inch tart pan with a removable bottom. Place into the freezer to chill while you prepare the filling
For the Custard Filling: Use a mesh strainer to separate the lavender flowers from the milk. Add the vanilla, maple syrup, and arrowroot, and stir to combine. Gently add in the agar and stir until there are no clumps left. Let it cool down until lukewarm
Assemble: Pour the custard filling over the crust and place in the fridge for about 4 hours to set. Decorate with sliced figs, lavender flowers, and fresh mint, and enjoy!

Notes

Roasting the hazelnuts for about 15 minutes at 250°F makes them extremely fragrant and tasty, and takes the recipe to the next level!
