Place tart in freezer for 20 minutes to chill. This step is very important, to have your pastry puff up.1 tablespoon almond milk, 1 tablespoon course sugar
- While tart is chilling, pre-heat oven to 400 F.
- Place tart in oven. Set timer for 10 minutes. At the 10 minute mark, spin tart around and bake for another 20 minutes. Since ovens vary, at 20 minutes, if the pastry is puffed and golden brown, but fruit is not bubbling, cover loosely with a tent of foil. If not yet browned, bake another 10 minutes. Once fruit is bubbling and pastry is golden brown, your tart is ready.
- Remove from oven and allow to rest for about 10 minutes. Slice into squares and serve warm. This can be served alone or with some dairy free ice cream.
