Ingredients
Scale
Crust
- 1 1/2 cups blanched almond flour (145g)
- 2 Tbsp coconut flour (14g)
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup melted coconut oil
- 1 Tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Filling
- 1 cup coconut cream*
- 1/2 cup unsweetened almond butter
- 4 oz dark chocolate chips (about 2/3 cup)
- 1/2 Tbsp peppermint flavoring**
Toppings
- Shredded coconut
- Miniature dark chocolate chips
- Naturally colored sprinkles
Instructions
- Prepare the Pan: Line a 6-inch round springform pan with parchment paper or aluminum foil to prevent sticking and make removal of the tart easier.
- Make the Crust: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, and salt. Stir in the melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until the mixture is well combined. Press the crust firmly and evenly into the bottom of the prepared springform pan to form a solid base.
- Prepare the Filling: In a small saucepan over low heat, gently melt the dark chocolate chips together with the coconut cream, stirring frequently until smooth and fully melted. Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the almond butter and peppermint flavoring until fully incorporated.
- Assemble the Tart: Pour the chocolate and almond butter filling over the prepared crust, spreading it evenly to cover the base.
- Set the Tart: Place the assembled tart in the refrigerator and chill overnight or for at least 4 hours until the filling is firm and set.
- Decorate: Just before serving, garnish the tart with shredded coconut, miniature dark chocolate chips, and naturally colored sprinkles for a festive look.
- Storage: Store the tart in the refrigerator. Alternatively, slice and keep portions in the freezer for longer preservation.
Notes
- *Coconut cream can be scooped from the top of a chilled can of full-fat coconut milk for best results.
- **Peppermint flavoring is a concentrated extract; adjust according to taste preferences.
- Pressing the crust firmly into the pan helps it hold together when sliced.
- Allow the tart to fully chill for optimal texture and flavor.
- Leftover slices can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 1 month.
