Hi darlings! Thought I’d share this delightful, refined sugar free, vegan, quick and easy, gluten free tart crust, for everyone who has been asking me for a baked version. 🙂

It’s just as good as my super easy no bake pie crust, and all you need, is a food processor and 5 ingredients, that you probably already have in your pantry. This delicious, crisp tart crust, bakes to a lovely golden brown color, and goes with any sweet filling you can think of. 🙂

What You’ll Need

Makes 1- 8 inch (20 cm) gluten free tart crust

1 cup of Almond Flour
1 cup of Shredded Coconut
2 Tablespoons of Maple Syrup
5 Teaspoons of Cold Coconut Oil
1 Teaspoon of Gluten Free Baking Powder

Instructions

1. First, preheat your oven to 356 degrees F (180 C), then, put the almond flour, shredded coconut, and baking powder into a food processor, and blend until the shredded coconut breaks down.

2. Next, add the maple syrup, and the cold coconut oil, and give it a good mix, until combined.

3. Transfer your pie crust to a non-stick tart pan, and with your thumbs, firmly press, and shape your gluten free tart crust.

*If your coconut oil has melted at room temperature, due to hot weather, simply pop a bit into the freezer for 20 minutes.

*If you don’t have a non-stick tart pan, just lightly grease your pan with a bit of melted coconut oil.

4. Finally, poke a few holes with a fork, and pop your tart crust into the oven until it’s lightly browned. Depending on your oven, this should take around 10 – 15 minutes. When ready, take out to completely cool.

How easy was that? Now that you’ve made your tart crust, what are you supposed to fill it with? Don’t worry, I’ve got a few ideas up my sleeve. 🙂
