Ingredients You Need for Mocha Almond Tarts [Vegan, Gluten-Free]

Crust:
  • 2 cups raw almonds
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil
  • ½ cup instant coffee
  • 2 tbsp flax meal + ¼ cup water
  • 2 tsp maple syrup
Filling:
  • 1 pkg silken tofu
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • 2 tbsp instant coffee
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder
  • ¼ tsp stevia (or other sweetener)

How to Prepare Mocha Almond Tarts [Vegan, Gluten-Free]

  1. Place all crust ingredients, except for the flax and water, into a food processor and pulse until it comes together, about one minute. In a separate bowl, mix together the water and flax meal and then mix in the other crust ingredients. Press about 1 tbsp of crust mixture into a lightly greased muffin tin cup on the bottom and up the sides. - make sure there are no thin spots. Repeat until mixture is used up. Place in freezer for at least 20 minutes.
  2. While crust is setting, place all filling ingredients into a blender and blend until well combined - about 30 seconds.
  3. Gently remove crusts from muffin tins - if they are sticking just gently run a knife around the edges and then they should slide out. Place crusts on a cookie sheet and then pour in the filling to the top of each. Set in the fridge or freezer for at least 30 minutes before serving. If freezing, let them sit out for 5-10 minutes before you serve them. If you put them in the fridge the middles will be a little looser than if you freeze them.

  1. Was I supposed to use only the powder of the instant coffee? I made coffee (liquid) for the crust and filling and the tarts are watery (but the taste is good!)…
