Description

This Blue Moon Lime Tart is a show-stopping dessert, featuring layers of zesty lime, creamy coconut, and a vibrant blue spirulina top. The combination of citrus and coconut creates a refreshing, tangy flavor, while the spirulina layer adds a beautiful color and subtle sweetness. The vegan cookie crust is perfectly crunchy, balancing out the smooth and creamy filling.


Ingredients

Scale

Cookie Crust:
8.8 oz (250 g) vegan cookies
5.3 oz (150 g) vegan butter, melted (or coconut oil)
Lime Layer:
1 ¼ cups (300 ml) coconut milk
¼ cup (60 ml) agave syrup (or other syrup or sugar)
Juice of 2 limes, freshly squeezed (approx. 80 ml)
¾ tsp agar powder
Blue Layer:
34 tbsp water
1 tbsp spirulina blue superfood powder
1 ⅓ cups (320 ml) coconut milk
¾ tsp agar powder
⅙ cup (40 ml) agave syrup (or other syrup or sugar)
1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
To Garnish (optional):
½ cup (75 g) blueberries
½ cup (75 g) blackberries
Lime slices


Instructions

Cookie Crust:
Place the vegan cookies in a food processor and blend them into fine crumbs. Alternatively, place them in a freezer bag and crush them with a rolling pin.
Transfer the cookie crumbs to a bowl, add the melted vegan butter, and mix until fully combined.
Press the mixture evenly into a 9-inch tart pan (or another pan with a removable bottom).
Place the tart pan in the freezer for 15 minutes, or in the refrigerator for 30 minutes, to allow the crust to solidify. You can also pre-bake the crust (see notes).
Lime Layer:
5. In a saucepan, combine the coconut milk and agar powder, stirring until the agar is fully dissolved.
6. Bring the mixture to a boil and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until thickened (follow package instructions if needed).
7. Turn off the heat and stir in the agave syrup and freshly squeezed lime juice. Let the mixture cool slightly.
8. Pour the lime mixture onto the chilled cookie crust and refrigerate for about 1 hour, or until the top is set.
Blue Layer:
9. In a small cup, dissolve the spirulina powder in the water and set aside.
10. In a saucepan, stir together the coconut milk and agar powder until the agar is fully dissolved.
11. Bring the mixture to a boil and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly. Turn off the heat and stir in the agave syrup, vanilla extract (if using), and the spirulina mixture.
12. Carefully pour the blue layer over the set lime layer and refrigerate for another 2 hours, or until the tart is fully firm.
To Serve:
13. Once the tart has set, gently remove it from the pan by pressing against the removable bottom.
14. Garnish with fresh blueberries, blackberries, and lime slices. Enjoy!
