Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups Cashew Meal
  • 3/4 cup Almond Meal
  • 3/4 cup Tiger Nut Flour
  • 1/4 cup Unsweetened Cocoa Powder Plus 2 tablespoons
  • 1/2 teaspoon Kosher Salt
  • 3 tablespoons Coconut Sugar
  • 3 tablespoons Pure Maple Syrup
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Vanilla Bean Paste
  • 1/3 cup Coconut Oil Softened, not melted
  • 3 tablespoons Unsalted Butter Melted
  • 3/4 cup Coconut Sugar Plus 2 tablespoons
  • 3 Egg
  • 3/4 cup Pure Maple Syrup
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Bean Paste
  • 2 cups Pecan Halves

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 325°F.
  • Combine all ingredients in a food processor and process until mixture comes together and starts to become lumpy/form a ball.
  • Transfer the mixture into an 11-inch tart pan and spread out evenly on the bottom of the entire pan using your fingers.
  • Poke a few holes using the tines of a fork in the crust then place pan in the oven and bake for 15 minutes. Remove set aside and let cool.
  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • Whisk the butter and coconut sugar in a medium bowl until combined.
  • Add the eggs, maple syrup and vanilla bean paste and whisk again until smooth.
  • Add the pecan halves and stir.
  • Place the tart pan with the cooled baked crust on a baking sheet. Pour the filling into the pan on top of the crust. Use a spatula to evenly distribute the pecan halves on the surface of the tart.
  • Place the baking sheet with the tart pan on top in the oven.
  • Immediately reduce the temperature to 350 degrees and bake for about 40-45 minutes until the center of the tart is set and not wiggly.
  • Remove from the oven, transfer the tart pan to a cooling rack and let cool for at least 30 minutes before slicing.
