Tart pan

Ingredients used

1 ½ cups almond flour
1 large egg
½ cup vanilla protein powder

¼ cup coconut oil, melted
¼ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons cold water (if needed)

2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup

Preparation method

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a tart pan with cooking spray or a little coconut oil.

In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, protein powder, and salt. Mix well.

Add melted coconut oil, honey (or maple syrup), and the egg to the dry ingredients. Stir until a dough forms. If the mixture is too crumbly, add cold water, one tablespoon at a time, until it holds together.

Press the dough evenly into the bottom and up the sides of the prepared tart pan. Prick the bottom with a fork to prevent bubbling.

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let it cool before filling it with your desired filling.
