  • 500 gr 18 oz rhubarb
  • 100 gr 3,5 oz raspberry
  • 2 tbsp elderflower syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 50 gr 1,8 oz coconut blossom sugar

Instructions

Dough:

  • Mix the flour with the cold butter (cut in pieces), salt, vanilla, powdered sugar

Pie:

  • Grease a Pie pan with butter
  • Preheat the oven to 200 degree C (400 F)
  • Take the dough out of the fridge and divide into 3 parts
  • Divide one third again and color it with natural dye (I used raspberry and strawberry powder) and leave one third plain for the rim
  • Roll out the other parts of the dough, as thin as possible
  • Add one into the pie pan for the bottom and sprinkle with 2 tbsp ground almonds
  • Discard the liquid from the rhubarb mixture and add the mixture on the bottom
  • Cut out different sizes of hearts from your top part of the dough and add the disc on the pie
  • Roll out the colored dough parts and cut out hearts - place them on the pie
  • Add a rim at the end and press down with a fork
  • Brush it with vegan cream (I used soy)
  • Bake for 40 minutes
  • Serve with ice cream or whipped cream
