Chocolate Tart with Almond Oat Crust– Serves 16

Crust:

1 ½ Cups almond flour

1 Cup oat flour

1/3 Cup sweetener of choice ( we use pure cane sugar but honey or maple syrup work)

¼ teaspoon sea salt

¼ Cup Earth Balance vegan butter (measure solid then melt)

1 large egg (or 2 Tablespoons apple sauce to make it vegan)

½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Notes:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a tart tray with removable bottom or a pie pan. In a large bowl mix together the two flours, sweetener and sea salt. Stir in melted butter, egg, and vanilla. The dough will be crumbly. Just keep mixing by pressing and stirring until it is smooth and uniform. Press the dough into your tart pan or pie tray. Poke holes in the surface with a fork to prevent bubbling.  Bake for 10-12 minutes until golden brown.
