VANILLA SLICE

How to make it

• Preheat oven to 180°C/350°F/gas 5. Line 2 baking trays with baking paper.
  
• Place one sheet of puff pastry on each tray, followed by another sheet of baking paper and another tray to hold it down and stop it rising too much.
  
• Cook for 25 minutes or until crispy and golden. Set aside and allow too cool.
  
• Once cooled, cut into 20cm slices. Line a 20cm square baking dish with baking paper and place 1 slice of puff pastry in the bottom.
  
• To prepare the custard, in a medium-sized saucepan, add the almond milk and cornflour and whisk to combine.
  
• Next, add the coconut milk, maple syrup, vanilla bean, sea salt and turmeric. Place on a medium heat, allowing the milk to thicken. Make sure you whisk regularly so the custard remains smooth.
  
• Once it does begin to thicken, turn the heat down to low and continue to stir regularly.
  
• You want the custard to be nice and thick, it should take about 10 minutes.
  
• Transfer custard to the baking dish and place remaining slice of pastry on top.
  
• Allow to cool then place in the fridge for 5-6 hours.
  
• Once set, cut into 10 slices and serve.
