Guests will do a double take when they see this purple rice tart, which is sweetened with maple syrup, coconut milk and coconut flakes. This author's oat, cashew and lavender crust is the ideal foundation for the rice pudding filling, while frozen raspberries top the tart for an extra burst of color.
This vegan tart is satisfying and is sure to take the "guilt" out of "guilty pleasure."
