What can I use instead of gelatin? It is non-vegan!
God bless and thanks.
Sorry, Joe, I don’t have another suggestion. I’m not a vegan, so I’m not familiar with vegan gelling options.
Iām thinking Chia seeds would work.
Hi Lindsey,
Should I use coconut milk from a box, or the canned kind for the tart? It looks delicious!
Lindsey links a coconut milk powder that can be mixed with water and works great for this recipe.
It would probably be more similar to boxed coconut milk, but canned may work as well. š
Let us know how it goes!
