Sub-title: A tropical twist on a classic dessert!
Ingredients:
For the crust:
1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
1/2 cup gluten-free rolled oats
1/4 cup raw macadamia nuts, finely chopped
1/4 cup maple syrup (preferably Grade B)
1 tablespoon melted coconut oil (or vegan butter)
Pinch of sea salt flakes
For the filling:
1 ripe medium mango, peeled and sliced into small pieces
1/2 cup unsweetened coconut cream (from a can)
1 tablespoon arrowroot powder
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
P pinch of sea salt flakes
Instructions:
Crust:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a food processor, combine all the crust ingredients until well combined and forms a crumbly mixture. Add a splash of water if needed.
Press the crust mixture evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom. Make sure you get an even layer without any air pockets.
Place the crust in the freezer while preparing the filling. This will help it set faster.
Fillling:
Drain the excess liquid from the coconut cream and place it in a bowl. Whisk gently until smooth.
Add the arrowroot powder and whisk again until fully incorporated. Set aside.
In a separate bowl, mix together the mango slices, coconut milk, and vanilla extract. Stir well.
Remove the crust from the freezer and pour the mango mixture onto the chilled crust. Smooth out the top with a spoon or offset spatula.
Place the tart back into the fridge to chill completely before serving.
Serve cold with your favorite dairy-free topping such as whipped coconut cream, fresh fruit, or a drizzle of maple syrup.
Note: You may use store-btigeneric 1 in 12 baking blend for gluten-free flour instead.
