Ingredients:
- 60g walnuts, chopped

For the tart base:
- 180g plain flour
- 110g vegan butter, cold & cubed

For the vegan caramel:
- 200g granulated sugar
- 60 ml water
- 2 tbsp vegan butter
- 120 ml full-fat coconut milk

Method:
- Preheat the oven to 190C.
- In a large bowl combine the flour, butter and ice water until a dough forms. Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to roughly ¼-inch thickness.

- Remove from the heat and immediately whisk in the vegan butter, coconut milk and vanilla extract until smooth. Let the caramel cool for 5 minutes.
- Add the walnuts, macadamia and peanuts to the tart base and pour the caramel sauce on top, then bake the tart for 25-30 minutes or until the filling is golden.
- Let the tart cool for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
