Ingredients
1 1/3 tbsps Pitted Dates (divided)
2 tsps Almonds
1/16 tsp Sea Salt (divided)
1/16 Lemon (large, zest and juice divided)
1 tbsp Coconut Butter
1/4 tsp Coconut Oil
Instructions
1. Line a muffin pan with paper or silicone baking cups. Soak 1/4 of the dates in warm water.
2. Add the remaining 3/4 of the dates, the almonds, half of the salt and half of the lemon zest to a food processor and blend until the date mixture forms a sticky ball. Divide the dough between baking cups and press into an even layer in the bottom of each baking cup. (Use damp fingers if the dough is too sticky.)
3. Add the coconut butter, the soaked dates, lemon juice, coconut oil and the remaining salt and zest to the food processor and blend until smooth (the mixture will form a soft wet dough). Spoon the coconut lemon mixture on top of the date layer and use a spoon or damp fingers to spread the coconut lemon mixture into an even layer.
4. Transfer the muffin pan to the freezer and allow the tarts to set for 20 to 30 minutes before removing the paper and transferring to an airtight container in the fridge. Enjoy!
