Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Begin by soaking the shelled pistachios in water overnight or for 4-6 hours. Rinse and gently remove their skins.
  2. In a food processor, combine roasted buckwheat, oat flakes, salt, and cacao powder; pulse until resembling coarse crumbs. Add the Medjool dates, solid coconut oil, and pure maple syrup, blending until the dough holds together. Press into a lined springform tin and freeze.
  3. Blend the soaked pistachios, chilled coconut milk, vanilla soya yogurt, maple syrup, coconut oil, and almond extract until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Carefully pour the creamy pistachio filling into the crust, spread evenly, and tap to release air bubbles. Freeze for 2-3 hours until set.
  5. Garnish with chopped pistachios, dark chocolate, and rose petals. Allow tart to defrost in the refrigerator for 30-40 minutes before serving.
