Veganising this very traditional French pâtisserie is not so challenging. What is though is you have to be patient !
Bake the empty dough following my instructions.
Put the lemon juice and zest, sugar, butter, water, salt and corn starch in a pan.
Cook on medium-heat while whisking until you get a creamy texture. Be careful, don’t overcook or it will have a very dense and chewy texture.
Pour the lemon curd on the freshly baked dough and equalise using a spatula.
Leave to cool down and transfer to fridge for 1 hour.
Now the meringue! Beat the chickpea juice until stiff using an electric mixer.
Add the icing sugar and lemon juice and keep beating until homogenous.
Spread on the lemon-curd.
Grill for 2 minutes using your oven grill.
Store into fridge and enjoy chilled!
