Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 45 minutes
Servings: 4
Ingredients
Crust:
1 cup almonds
1 cup oats
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1⁄2 teaspoon salt
Lemon Custard:
1 cup coconut cream (use the full-fat thicker part of the coconut milk)
1⁄2 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/3rd cup maple syrup
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon turmeric
1 tablespoon Califia Farms Extra Creamy Oatmilk
3/4th cup lemon juice
Zest of 2 lemons
Coconut flakes
Directions
01
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
02
Blend crust with almonds, oats, maple syrup, and salt. (When adding the maple syrup, let the oats and almonds combine together so it’s a sticky crust.) Blend well but leave some chunks for texture.
03
In a deep pan with parchment, layer the crust and pat down to make sure its sticky and packed together. Bake for 25 minutes.
04
In the meantime, make the custard by blending coconut cream, vanilla, cornstarch, maple syrup, salt, turmeric, Califia Farms Extra Creamy Oatmilk, lemon juice, and lemon zest.
05
In a saucepan, heat up the custard for about 10-15 minutes until it begins to thicken.
06
Layer on the custard over the crust and place in the oven for another 20 minutes. Then remove, chill, and place in the freezer to set for 30 minutes.
07
Slice, top with coconut flakes, and serve!
