Serves: 4 tarts
Ingredients
- 1 cup dates
- 1 cup walnuts
- 1/2 cup coconut oil
- 1 cup mixed berries
- 1 tablespoon agave syrup
Instructions
- Place dates and walnuts in a food processor and pulse until they form a sticky, crumbly texture that holds together when pressed.
- Line a muffin tin with parchment paper or silicone muffin cups to prevent sticking and ensure easy removal of tarts.
- Press the date and walnut mixture firmly into the bottom and sides of each muffin cup, creating a uniform tart shell about 1/4 inch thick.
- Melt coconut oil in a small saucepan over low heat until completely liquid, then remove from heat.
- In a mixing bowl, combine mixed berries with agave syrup and gently mash to release some juices while keeping some berry chunks intact.
- Pour the melted coconut oil into the berry mixture and stir thoroughly to create a glossy, cohesive filling.
- Carefully spoon the berry mixture into each prepared tart shell, distributing evenly and leaving a small rim at the top.
- Place the muffin tin in the refrigerator and chill for at least 2 hours to allow tarts to set completely.
- Once set, gently remove tarts from the muffin tin using the parchment paper or silicone cups.
- Serve chilled and optionally garnish with fresh berries or a sprinkle of shredded coconut.
Tips
- Texture is Key: When processing dates and walnuts, pulse carefully to achieve a sticky, but not overly wet consistency. The mixture should hold together when pressed.
- Muffin Tin Hack: Use silicone muffin cups or parchment paper strips for effortless tart removal. This prevents sticking and makes serving a breeze.
- Berry Brilliance: Use fresh, seasonal mixed berries for the most vibrant flavor. Slightly mashing the berries releases natural juices without completely destroying their texture.
- Chill Factor: Patience is crucial. Allow at least 2 hours of refrigeration to ensure your tarts set perfectly and develop a delightful, firm consistency.
- Optional Glamour: Elevate your presentation by garnishing with fresh berries, a sprinkle of shredded coconut, or even a mint leaf for a professional touch.
