Ingredients
 

Cashew Cream

Mushroom Filling

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 355°F (180°C).

Cashew Cream

  • Drain the soaked cashews and add them to a blender. Add the water, nutritional yeast, white vinegar, and salt.
  • Blend on high speed for 15-30 seconds or until smooth. You will end up with a liquid cream. Transfer to a small bowl and set aside.

Mushroom Filling

  • Heat the butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add garlic and sauté for 1 minute.
  • Next, add the sliced mushrooms and sauté for 3-5 minutes or until cooked. Season with soy sauce, dried rosemary, and ground black pepper. Cook for one more minute.
  • Turn off the heat and add the cashew cream to the sautéed mushrooms. Stir to combine. Set aside.
  • Assemble: Lightly grease a 7.5-inch tart pan with oil or butter. Unroll your pie crust (or flatten it, if homemade), and press it into the tart pan. Trim off any excess dough using a pair of scissors or by running a rolling pin over the tart pan. Poke the bottom and sides of the crust with a fork.
  • Transfer the mushroom filling to the pie crust and spread it evenly.
  • Bake for 35-40 minutes or until the crust is golden brown. If using a transparent glass tart pan, you can take a look at the bottom of the pan to check if the crust is cooked.
  • Let cool for a few minutes before serving! You can serve it as is or with a green salad on the side.
  • This mushroom tart will keep for up to 4 days in the refrigerator.

Notes

  • Double the recipe. While I used a 7.5-inch tart pan, feel free to double the filling to make a 9-inch tart. The filling will be slightly thicker, making the tart heartier!
  • Use pie crust. I highly recommend going with a pie crust instead of puff pastry. The latter would become soggy due to the creamy filling.
  • Season with your favorite herbs. You can easily switch up the herbs to your liking. Add cilantro, oregano, spring onions, or even thyme for an herby tart!
  • Mix different types of mushrooms. Vary the varieties of mushrooms for a combination of flavor and texture!
  • Make mini tarts. If you plan on serving this as an appetizer, bake it into individual mini tarts instead of a larger one.
  • Top with vegan cheese! You can sprinkle grated vegan cheese on top of the filling before baking to take this tart to the next level!
  • If serving to guests: garnish this tart with some arugula just before serving for a fancy-looking main.
