Ingredients 

Crust:

  • 150 g gluten-free flour by Schar
  • 4 tbsp coconut oil softened at room temperature (or regular butter, if you're not vegan)
  • 80 ml water I used the same cup
  • ½ tsp baking soda

Toppings:

  • 15 cherry tomatoes halved
  • 200 g firm tofu drained
  • ½ cup basil chopped
  • 1 garlic head cloves peeled and mashed

Instructions

  • Heat oven at 375F.
  • Add all crust ingredients in a medium bowl. Mix them well using a fork.
  • Place the bowl in the fridge for a couple of minutes, while you prepare the toppings.
  • Cut tomatoes in half. Chop basil. Mash garlic.
  • You can either mash tofu with a fork, or use a food processor to turn it into a creamy paste.
  • Blend all topping ingredients together, except tomatoes.
  • Take the bowl out of the fridge.
  • Grease a tart pan with some coconut butter.
  • Now, if you want to make this tart quickly, proceed to the next steps. If you want to be able to shape the tart dough, you'll have to leave it in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.
  • Pour the crust dough into the pan.
  • You'll see that the crust dough will be extra sticky and wet. This is how it is supposed to be. You'll get an incredibly tender tart crust. Start spreading it all over the pan using a fork or a spoon. (Alternatively, you can leave it the fridge for about 30 minutes. It will get easier to shape)
  • Add tofu cream and spread it evenly.
  • Add halved tomatoes.
  • Bake in oven for 15-20 minutes.

Notes

You think one whole garlic head is too much? No, it isn't! Trust me, it will be HEAVENLY good! :)
