Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Using a food processor, blend the macadamia nuts until they become crumbly.
- Add the chia seeds and coconut oil to the macadamia nuts in the food processor and pulse until the mixture comes together, forming a dough-like consistency.
- Press the nut mixture evenly into the bottom of a tart pan, ensuring it covers the base and sides. You can use the back of a spoon or your fingers to press the mixture firmly.
- Place the tart pan in the preheated oven and bake for about 10 minutes, or until the crust starts to turn golden.
- Once baked, remove the crust from the oven and let it cool completely.
- Break the dark chocolate into small pieces and place them in a heatproof bowl.
- In a saucepan, heat the coconut oil until just melted, then pour it over the dark chocolate pieces.
- Stir the mixture until all the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth and glossy.
- Let the chocolate mixture cool slightly, then fold it into the Greek yogurt until well combined, ensuring there are no streaks.
- Pour the chocolate-yogurt mixture into the cooled tart crust and spread it out evenly with a spatula.
- Refrigerate the tart for at least 2 hours, or until the filling is firm.
- Once set, remove the tart from the refrigerator.
- Top the tart with fresh berries of your choice before serving.
- Slice the tart with a sharp knife and enjoy your delicious, healthy Chocolate Chia Tart with Berries!
Tips:
- Ensure the macadamia nuts are finely ground to achieve a smoother crust consistency.
- Melt the dark chocolate slowly over a double boiler to prevent burning and ensure a silky texture.
- For added flavor, toast the macadamia nuts lightly before processing them.
- Chill the tart thoroughly before serving to help it set properly and enhance the flavors.
- Top the tart with a mix of your favorite berries for a burst of color and freshness.
