Notes

*Ou des pêches et des groseilles (or  use peaches and red currants)
** Ou d’Amande (or use Almond Cream) it is a good substitute (to oat cream) as well, or regular cream if you do not have any dairy allergies.
Oat and almond cream can be found in normal French supermarkets there is no need to go to an organic store. These creams are usually found close to the soy, almond and oat milks. I am lactose-free, so this recipe is suitable for anyone with dairy sensitivities.
