No Bake Vegan Vanilla Custard Slice
Monday, May 6, 2019
Edit
I actually didn’t have a thing for vanilla custard slice until after becoming vegan. I tried one at my favourite vegan bakery and just fell in love with it! What I didn’t like was the sugar overload headache it came with, so I went out to create my own, making it healthier than the average dessert.
Besides being vegan, it’s also gluten-free, soy-free, oil-free and only 8 ingredients. YAY ☺️
I like to add some oil to the inside edges of the pan to stick the baking paper down. This makes it easier to press down the base mixture into the pan, and for when pouring the custard in. It also creates a straighter edge along the custard when set.
When cooking the custard, you want a thick custard consistency. If it’s not thick it won’t set firm enough to cut.
It will feel fragile when taking it out of the pan but don’t worry! Be a little gentle and all will be fine, it has more hold than you think.
