Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sprouted flour (see tips, below)
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
  • Seeds from 1/2 vanilla bean
  • Pinch of Celtic sea salt
  • 3 heaping teaspoons raw cashews, soaked for 8 hours in filtered water
  • 1/4 cup plus 1 teaspoon Cashew Milk
  • 2 tablespoons raw dark honey
  • 2 tablespoons Cashew Milk
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 4 tablespoons Cashew Milk
  • 8 tablespoons Chocolate Fudge-Almond
  • 28 banana slices
  • 4 tablespoons Honey Walnuts , broken

Method

  • To make the tart shells: Combine all the ingredients in a bowl and stir to mix well.
  • Place 2 tablespoons of the mixture in the bottom of each of 4 ring molds each 2 inches in diameter.
  • Pack the mixture firmly into the molds.
  • (You will have more dough than you need for 4 molds.
  • Because the tiny tart shells are fragile and time-consuming to make, it is a good idea to line additional ring molds with the remaining dough in case of breakage.)
  • Place the molds on a nonstick drying sheet on a dehydrator shelf and dehydrate at 105F for 3 hours.
  • Remove the tart shells from the drying sheet and dehydrate directly on the shelf for about 10 hours longer, or until just dry.
  • To make the Caramel Sauce: Drain the cashews, pat them dry, and then measure them.
  • You should have 1/4 cup; discard any excess.
  • In a high-speed blender, combine the cashews, Cashew Milk, honey, Date Paste, and maple syrup and process until smooth.
  • Strain the puree through a fine-mesh sieve.
  • Set aside 4 tablespoons for the tarts; reserve the remainder for another use.
  • Spoon 1 tablespoon of the Mexican Chocolate Sauce in a circle on each plate.
  • Put a tart shell on top of the sauce.
  • Spread 2 tablespoons of the Chocolate Fudge-Almond on the tart shell.
  • Arrange 7 banana slices on top.
  • Drizzle 1 tablespoon Caramel Sauce over the bananas and on the plate.
  • Sprinkle with the Honey Walnuts.
