Healthy Chocolate Tart
Serves 5 people
Preparation Time: 30 minutes
INGREDIENTS
Tart Shell
1 cup almonds
1 cup oats
2 tbsp melted butter
3 tbsp sugar (coconut sugar)
A pinch of salt
Chocolate Filling
1 cup cream
2 tsp softened butter
1 cup dark chocolate roughly-chopped
1 tsp vanilla extract
Garnish: Toasted Hazelnuts
METHOD
To Make The Crust:
Preheat the oven to 170 deg C.
Grind the almonds and oats in a mixer/ food processor till fine.
Add the butter, vanilla extract & pinch of salt and mix well, till it resembles a dough-like consistency.
Press the crust mixture evenly into the bottom of a 9-inch tart pan (or pie dish).
Refrigerate for 10 minutes.
After chilling the tart, bake it for 12 minutes, or until it begins to feel dry and firm. Remove from the oven and transfer to a wire rack to cool.
To Make The Chocolate Filling:
• Meanwhile, as the crust is baking, heat the cream on the stovetop or in the microwave until simmering.
• Place the dark chocolate in a bowl, and pour the hot cream evenly over the top of it. Wait a minute or so, then slowly stir together until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
• Stir in the butter and vanilla extract.
Pour the chocolate filling into the baked crust, and smooth the top with a spoon until it is even.
• Refrigerate for at least 3 to 4 hours, or until set.
• Garnish with toasted hazelnuts or fruits of your choice. Serve chilled.
