Ingredients 

  • 1 vegan puff pastry
  • 4 onions cut into thick circles
  • 2 Tbsp vegan butter
  • 2 Tbsp sugar
  • 2 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 2 Tbsp lime juice
  • ½ cup water or vegetable stock
  • 3-4 bay leaves
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 cup fresh parsley chopped
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Heat a large oven-safe pan over medium-high heat.
  • Add the vegan butter, sugar, bay leaves, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and lime juice.
  • Cook for 30 seconds, then add the apple cider vinegar and water (or vegetable stock).
  • Cut the onions into thick circles and arrange them in the pan.
  • Season with salt and pepper. Cover, lower the heat to medium-low, and cook for 10-12 minutes.
  • Uncover and let the liquid reduce by two-thirds.
  • Lay the puff pastry on top and bake in a preheated 180C (350F) oven for 20 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown.
  • Flip the tart onto a plate and garnish with a generous amount of chopped parsley.

Notes

Best served warm, fresh from the oven. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheat in the oven to keep the pastry crisp. For a gluten-free version, use a gluten-free vegan puff pastry.
