Gluten Free Dairy Free Key Lime Tart

[Mark]

I finally figured out how to make a key lime tart without using eggs!

Here's the basic recipe, substitute anything in it that you can't eat.

These proportions are for two 4" x 1/2" inch tart pans. Scale to fit your pan.

CRUST:

Grind just under 1 cup of cashews in a coffee grinder until they're near powdery.

Mix the cashews with 1 tablespoon butter and 1 tablespoon coconut oil until it comes together and isn't crumbly.

Spread the crust mix in to a pie pan, tart pan, or even a cheesecake pan.

FILLING:

Squeeze 1 1/2 key limes into mixing bowl.

Grind about 1 tablespoon xylitol into a find powder.

Add just enough coconut flour to the lime juice so that the flour absorbs all the liquid.

Be careful to add the flour slow, coconut flour is extremely absorbent so it doesn't take much to have enough.

Add 1 tablespoon butter and 1 tablespoon coconut oil to the lime/coconut flour mixture. Toss in the xylitol.

Heat that mix, but only until it melts. It doesn't need to get hot!

After it's all melted stir it together thoroughly and pour it into the crust.

Chill it in the frig until firm.

That's it. If you don't like it, check to see if you still have a pulse

Thanks for the recipe!

Going to try it out tomorrow or the day after.

In the recipe for the crust you write "coconut" - is that coconut oil or milk?

Thanks!

Thank you!

Yesterday I had my first attempt of making a blueberry pie for my guests, inspired with Laura's Pumpkin/berries pie with a cashew bottom and it was yummy, only the bottom was a bit too soft cause I never did it before and put too much butter in it :P But now I know, thanks to your recipe! Can't wait to try it! Thank you :D
