  • Vanilla extract
  • Salt
  • Ricotta cheese

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
  • In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, cocoa powder, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix well.
  • Press the mixture into a tart pan, ensuring it covers the bottom and sides evenly.
  • Bake the crust for 10-12 minutes, then let it cool completely.

Notes

  • If you prefer a sweeter tart, you can increase the amount of honey or maple syrup in the ricotta filling.
  • Make sure to allow the tart to fully cool before adding the ricotta filling to ensure the layers don’t mix.
