This beautiful tart has it all. First, the crust is made from oats and puffed brown rice for a satisfying crunch, and is seasoned with warm spices for a lovely cozy flavouring. Once the crust is baked and cooled, it is filled with a simple chocolate ganache. Most ganache is made with chocolate and cream, but we use almond milk instead for a much lighter version. It is also scented with a splash of vanilla. A sprinkling of coarse sea salt on top adds a touch of elegance as well as flavour.
