Vegan Custard with Stewed Stone Fruits + Coco-Berry Granola

Preparation time: 25 mins

Who says you have to miss out on custard when you go plant-based? Not us that's for sure! I'm not going to lie, when we first went plant-based, there were so many 'favourites' that we thought would be off limits. How wrong we were!! This dessert is so delicious it actually made it's way onto our family Christmas lunch! Tart stewed seasonal fruits, silky smooth custard and crunchy Coco-Berry Granola, what a combo!
