A vegan dessert rich in fiber, without sugar and gluten, perfect for a hearty breakfast or as an alternative to fresh fruit for dessert. Thanks to my health-conscious Brazilian chef friend Alexsa for the recipe. The peanut butter in the filling and a decorative Coconut Ganache topping are my personal touches.

  2. 2

    Prick the bottom with a fork and bake for about 15 minutes in a preheated oven at 350°F, or until the edges start to turn golden. Then let it cool on a wire rack.
