Ingredients Pastry Crust:
1/2 cup - soy flour
1/8 tsp - salt
2 oz - ground roast hazelnuts or almonds
2 Tbsp - Steviva Blend or Fructevia
2 oz - butter
1 egg yolk
2 tsp - water

Ingredients Filling:
4 egg yolks
1/4 cup Steviva Blend or Fructevia
1 tsp - vanilla extract
1 3/4 cups - milk
3 tsp - non-flavored gelatine
2 Tbsp - water

Ingredients Topping:
2 lb - no sugar added canned or fresh cherries (lowest glycemic effect) or berries of choice for variety
2 tsp - gelatine
2 tsp - rum (don't worry the alcohol will cook off)

Directions Pastry:
1. Sift soy flour and add all dry ingredients together, with the Steviva Blend or Fructevia in the center, on a pastry board.
2. Add the butter (softened), egg yolk, and water. Work the liquids into the Steviva Blend or Fructevia until it is creamy.
3. Now work in the soy flour mixture, as you would for any sweet pastry.
4. Press the dough into a greased cupcake or muffin tin. Prick the base of the pastry all over.
5. Refrigerate for 30 mins, then cook in a moderate oven 375F or 15 to 20 mins (until golden brown)

Directions Filling:
1. Put egg yolks, Steviva Blend or Fructevia and vanilla into a bowl and beat until thick and creamy.
2. Heat cream carefully until almost boiling.
3. Combine the two mixtures, beating until smooth, then add the result to the top of a double boiler and simmer until it thickens (STIR CONSTANTLY).
4. Dissolve the gelatine in the water, and add to the cream mixture, stirring well until it is well mixed.
5. Allow this mixture to cool completely before adding to the pastry case. Refrigerate until it sets.

Directions Topping:
1. Soak the cherries in Steviva Blend or Fructevia for 20 minutes. Drain and and reserve 1 cup of the syrup.
2. Arrange the pitted cherries artistically over the top of the tart.
3. Put the reserved syrup, gelatine and rum into a saucepan and heat (stirring) until gelatine dissolves.
4. Cool the liquid and pour over the cherries. Refrigerate until set.

Don't be intimidated by the complexity of the recipe, it is well worth the effort.
