The benefit of the doubt would be that they liked custard tarts before going vegan and wanted to try and make a vegan version?

Then wouldn't you search for "vegan egg tart"?

Could be stupid, could be someone who was told "honestly vegan recipes are often bad just look up a recipe and swap the egg for banana/pumpkin/applesauce and it'll be fine." which... usually yes, as egg is there as binder and not there as like.. the whole point of the dish.

Yeah, I suppose it could work when there's just a little bit of egg and you just need binding and moisture, so something like pancakes or muffins.

True. You are more charitable than I am.
