Ingredients
 
 

For the base

  • 300g oat flour*
  • 25g brown sugar
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 140g dairy-free butter cut into small cubes**

For the banana layer

  • 3 bananas slices

For the date caramel

  • 300g Medjool dates
  • 2 tbsp peanut butter***
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 100ml almond milk

For the coconut whip

  • 2 cans coconut milk solid cream only

Optional topping

  • Dark chocolate shavings

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 180C/160C fan.
  • Soak the dates in hot water for 30 minutes, then drain and rinse.
  • Mix together the oat flour, sugar and salt in a large bowl.Rub the butter into the flour and add in the cold water. Mix until you have a smooth dough.
  • Press the dough into and up the sides of a 9 inch (23cm) loose base tart tin. Prick the base a few times with a fork and bake for 25 minutes. Leave to cool.
  • Add the soaked dates to a blender/food processor along with the rest of the date caramel ingredients and blend until smooth***.
  • To make the whipped coconut cream – refrigerate 2 cans of full fat coconut milk in the fridge overnight (or at least 8 hours), then spoon out the thickened cream only (not the water).
  • Add the solid cream to a large bowl and beat with a hand mixer until creamy and smooth.
  • To assemble - spread the date caramel over the base, then top with the banana slices and dollop the cream on top. Finish off with a sprinkle of dark chocolate shavings.

Notes

* Blend plain oats into a fine flour in a high-speed blender. Use gluten-free oats for a gluten-free recipe.
** Regular dairy butter or coconut oil will also work.
*** For a nut-free version, you can use tahini or sunflower seed butter instead of peanut butter. 
**** You can make the date caramel ahead of time for convenience. Store in the fridge in an air-tight container.
