This vegan blueberry crisp tart is so delicious and easy to make. Perfect with a scoop of vanilla ice cream!

Now that we’re heading into autumn, I thought it was the perfect time to share a warming treat with autumnal vibes.

Autumn has to be my favourite season in the year. Cosy clothes, hot drinks and comforting food…what’s not to love? And now that we’re all trying to stay indoors more, the lack of nice warm weather makes it that much easier to comply to social distancing rules!

This vegan blueberry crisp tart is made with healthier ingredients and less sugar, but it’s still extremely comforting and delicious. You can make it more indulgent by serving it warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

You can use any kind of berry really, and frozen berries work just as well. This recipe is also gluten-free and can easily be made nut-free by replacing the chopped nuts with more rolled oats.
