Servings: 8
Servings: 8
Ingredients
- subheading: The Base:
- 210 grams almond flour
- 70 grams coconut flour
- 55 grams unsalted butter
- 2 large eggs
- subheading: The Filling:
- 3 small Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored & sliced
- 2 Tbsp Water
- 1 piece stick cinnamon
- 1 tsp rum or sherry
- zest of 1 lemon
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- subheading: The Topping:
- 1 Tbsp milk kefir yoghurt or buttermilk or plain Greek yoghurt
- 1 large egg
- Ground Cinnamon
Steps
- subheading: The Base:
- Melt the butter. When cool, whisk in the eggs.
- Mix the almond & coconut flour with the butter-egg mixture till it forms a smooth ball.
- Cover the dough with plastic wrap or parchment paper. Put into the fridge for 30 minutes so that it’s easier to line the paper cups.
- OR press the soft dough into parchment paper cups or mini cheesecake pans.
- Bake the tartlet shells @ 180* C for about 15 minutes. Do not let them brown.
- subheading: The filling:
- While the tartlet shells are baking, cook the apples.
- Bring the sliced apples to a gentle boil in water and stick cinnamon.
- Simmer till cooked, but not too soft. All the liquid would have evaporated.
- Allow apples to cool.
- Add lemon zest, lemon juice and rum or sherry.
- When tartlet shells are baked, fill them gently with apple slices.
- subheading: The Topping:
- Beat the egg, kefir or buttermilk or yoghurt till well mixed.
- Cover the apples with the eggy mixture.
- Dust lightly with cinnamon.
- Bake @ 180* C for 10 minutes or till set and lightly brown.
Notes
- I did not add any sugar or sugar substitute as I am trying to reduce my carbs.
- If you like your dessert a bit sweet, feel free to add sugar or honey, to your desired taste, to either The Base, The Filling and/or the Topping.
- I only baked 6 tartlets. The rest of the dough is wrapped and in the fridge.
- My husband ate 3 on the same day and I gave my neighbour 2. Guess who had only 1. That’s right - moi!
- They were really delicious and we did not miss the sugar at all.
- I’m going to make these again soon. Perhaps I’ll make mini milk tarts, cheesecakes or even, savoury quiches.
- Unfortunately, there are no pics to share as they were gone in no time!
