  • Open the can of coconut milk. Pour off the coconut water into a bowl or container. Save both the coconut water and the coconut cream remaining in the can.
  • Peel mango and remove the pit. Puree the mango, sugar and ½ cup of the coconut water in a high-speed blender or food processor.

  • Add the egg replacer and mix briefly.
  • Pour the mixture into the tart shell.
  • Bake the tart for 40 minutes.
  • While the tart is baking, prepare the apricot glaze. Heat the apricot jam in a saucepan over low heat with just enough water to achieve a runny consistency. Add cardamom to taste.
  • After the 40 minutes bake time, take the tart out of the oven. Place the apricots a few at a time into the pan to coat them with the apricot glaze. Arrange them in a circular pattern on top of the custard.
  • Return the tart to the oven and bake for another 15 minutes or until the custard is just set.
