Background

It’s so easy to make yummy vegan desserts, particularly these days, when dairy-free alternatives are widely available in supermarkets. I decided to try out the new “whippable” oatly vanilla custard - which is delicious but not really whippable – and made this lovely, vegan roasted plum trifle using vegan shop-bought sponge cake that got a bit stale. You can use gluten-free spongecake or dairy-free ladyfingers too. As to the roasted plum - follow this baked plum recipe or use preserved plums in syrup from a deli.

Ingredients

100ml oatly vanilla custard (whippable)
Vegan leftover sponge cake
Roasted plum in fruits juice (see above)

Instructions

Whisk the custard until you get a fluffy light cream. (You won’t get proper whipped cream consistency).
Cut the cake into thin slices.
Cover the base of two or more individual glasses or other dessert pods with the cake slices. Add a piece of roasted plum, including some sauce/syrup. Spoon some custard over the plum.
Repeat the layering process. Finish off with a layer of custard.
Decorate the top with nuts, vegan chocolate shavings or a star anise from the baked plums.
Refrigerate for a couple of hours before serving.
