Method
- Put the spread into a heat-proof bowl and microwave for 30 secs or until melted.
- Put the biscuits into a food processor and blitz to fine crumbs. Pour in the melted spread and pulse until combined. Press the biscuit crumbs into the base and sides of a 24cm loose-based fluted tart tin. Chill for 20 mins.
- Meanwhile, heat the soya milk, spices and sugar in a medium saucepan over a low heat for 1-2 mins until the sugar has dissolved.
- In a small bowl, mix the cornflour with a spoonful of the warm soya milk mixture to a paste. Add to the pan, stirring to combine. Cook over low heat for 2-3 mins until thickening and just beginning to simmer.
- Break the chocolate into small pieces and add to the saucepan with the soya milk mixture. Take off the heat and continue to stir until the chocolate has fully melted.
- Scatter the dried fruits evenly across the chilled biscuit base. Pour over the chocolate ganache, smoothing the top. Chill for at least 2hrs until set, or overnight.
- Arrange the blackberries and pomegranate seeds over the tart and dust over a little extra cinnamon before serving. Cut into thin slices and serve with the vegan cream or vegan crème fraiche.
