Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, maple syrup, and just enough water to create a clump. Press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a greased tart pan.
  2. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) while shaping the crust. Bake for 10-12 minutes until golden brown and firm.
  3. In a blender, combine Medjool dates, coconut milk, vanilla extract, sea salt, and cornstarch. Blend until silky smooth.
  4. Pour the creamy filling into the baked crust, smoothing it out. Sprinkle reserved chopped dates on top.
  5. Bake again for an additional 30-35 minutes until the filling is set but slightly soft in the center.
  6. Cool the tart at room temperature for at least 20 minutes. Chill in the refrigerator for an hour before serving.
