2. Pour in the almond milk, melted coconut oil, maple syrup and vanilla and mix well to combine to form a dough-like texture.
3. Press into 4 x small loose-bottom tartlet tins to cover the bottom and up the sides. Chill in the fridge while you make the filling.
4. Pour the can of coconut milk into a small pan and whisk in the beetroot concentrate and maple syrup and place on a medium-high heat.
5. Whisk the cornflour in a cup with 1-2 tablespoons water to form a paste then stir this into the pan. Whisk continuously and cook for a few minutes until the sauce has thickened. Remove from the heat, stir in the vanilla and set aside to cool.
6. Once cooled, spoon the filling into each of the cases and sprinkle over the decoration. Chill again for at least 30 minutes until ready to serve.
