Dairy-Free Tompouce (Custard Slice)
A classic Dutch pastry with layers of puff pastry and pastry cream, topped with pink icing. This dairy-free version uses vegan puff pastry and a coconut milk-based pastry cream.
Ingredients
- 1 package Vegan puff pastry
- 2 cups Coconut milk (full-fat)
- 1/2 cup Sugar
- 1/4 cup Cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- few drops Pink food coloring
- 1 cup Powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons Water
Original measure retained: its cup/spoon or fluid-volume standard is unspecified.
Instructions
- 1Preheat oven to about 205°C (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- 2Unfold the vegan puff pastry and cut into 12 equal rectangles. Place on the prepared baking sheet.
- 3Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed up. Let cool completely.
- 4To make the pastry cream: In a saucepan, whisk together coconut milk, sugar, and cornstarch until smooth.
- 5Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and comes to a boil. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract.
- 6Let the pastry cream cool completely, stirring occasionally to prevent a skin from forming.
- 7To make the pink icing: In a bowl, whisk together powdered sugar and water until smooth. Add pink food coloring to your desired shade.
- 8Assemble the tompouce: Cut each puff pastry rectangle in half horizontally. Spread a generous layer of pastry cream on the bottom half, top with the other half of puff pastry, and spread the pink icing on top.
