Chocolate tart with oat & coconut oil crust (vegan)

January 18, 2016 By travellingoven Leave a Comment

Good morning dear people! How was your weekend, I hope a good one whatever you did? To be honest I kind of just work, work, work at the moment and wait for this week to finish as it’s been crazy busy for my husband and everybody else living in this town with World Economic Forum starting this week and all the craziness that goes with it! But isn’t it just the best when the work looks like this… 🙂

Davos, this little town in the Swiss Alps where we now live, is famous for WEF that is being held in January every year for the last 40 years and its mission is cited as “committed to improving the state of the world by engaging business, political, academic, and other leaders of society to shape global, regional, and industry agendas”. In other words that means that we will have more than 40 heads of states and governments and business leaders discussing current global challenges like security, climate change and “the fourth industrial revolution”. This kind of annual meeting definitely has its importance but at the same time in the period before and during, the town is totally transformed and it gets kind of crazy! You can only imagine the level of security and the number of police, military, trucks, helicopters etc…
Temporary constructions are being built, shops and bars (even our library!) are being transformed into offices and media centers, there are tunnels and corridors emerging in the middle of the streets, military trucks everywhere and the whole town basically becomes one big fort where is difficult to get in and out. I know this is necessary for safety reasons, specially in this crazy world of ours and all the horrible things happening all over so I’m not complaining. But I do prefer to stay cozy at home and away from all that! 🙂
So now you understand me a bit better when I say that I’m mostly staying home during this period and finding my peace in working, baking, shooting, editing… That’s why I have something so delicious for you today, this Dark chocolate tart with oat crust and all the great ingredients! The crust is delicious but I do want to point out that is not the easiest crust to cut through like the regular ones made with butter so I found the method that works the best for me. Once the tart is cooled in the fridge, you take a big sharp knife and first pierce through it with the knife and than cut the rest of the slice. It’s worth this little “problem” as it is so delicious and also better for us than the one with loads of butter and refined sugar. To make this tart you will need a food processor, any one will do…

This tart is dairy-free and can easily be made vegan just by using vegan chocolate instead of regular dark one. The recipe is slightly adapted from Bon Appetit (you can find the original recipe here) and I made it two times in two days, you know just to be sure it’s really really good. 😀 And it is! For all the dark chocolate lovers out there, you have to make this! 🙂 The quantities in the recipe are for the smaller tart pan, the one that has diameter 22 cm (9 inch) but if you want to make it in the larger one (28 cm or 11 inch) just use 1.5 quantities for the crust and you are good to go. I tried both.

Author: Slightly adapted from Bon Appetit
Recipe type: Dessert
Ingredients
  • For the crust:
  • 1 cup oats
  • 1 cup spelt flour (or other)
  • ⅓ cup coconut oil, melted
  • ¼ cup agave syrup
  • 2 tbsp raw cacao powder
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • pinch of salt
  • Note: 1 cup = 250 ml. These quantities are for a 22 cm (9 inch) diameter tart pan, if you are making it in the larger one (28 cm or 11 inch), just use 1.5 quantities for the crust.
  • For the filling:
  • 1 cup raw cacao
  • ¾ cup hot water
  • 200 g dark chocolate
  • ½ cup agave syrup
  • ⅔ cup coconut oil, melted
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • pinch of salt
  • Flaky sea salt for sprinkling
Preparation
  1. Crust:
  2. Preheat oven to 175 C (350 F). Grease the tart pan with a bit of coconut oil.
  3. Put oats, flour, coconut oil, agave syrup, cacao, cinnamon and salt in food processor and process until the mixture looks combined and oats are coarsely ground.
  4. Press the mixture into bottom and sides of tart pan. Pierce through in few places with a fork.
  5. Bake for 20-25 min until the crust is golden brown. Set aside and let it cool.
  6. Filling:
  7. Add cacao to ¾ cup hot water and dissolve it using a spoon.
  8. Pour into food processor and add melted chocolate, agave syrup, ⅔ cup melted coconut oil, vanilla and salt. Process until the mixture is completely smooth.
  9. Pour the chocolate filling into cooled tart crust. Put it in the fridge until the filling is set, at least 2 hours or overnight. When the tart is chilled, sprinkle it with flaky sea salt and cut with a sharp knife.
  10. Note: The crust is a bit hard after being in the fridge so it's easier to cut if you first pierce through it with a knife and that cut the slice.

Here are some photos from Plitvice lakes to wish y Here are some photos from Plitvice lakes to wish you all a good week! ☺️❄️❄️❄️ If you (like myself) are getting really tired of all this pandemic situation and limitations it has put on our life and freedom, try just focusing on today, taking it one step at a time and look for comfort and hope in nature whenever you can. It has always been my wish to live closer to nature and now I'm longing for it more than ever before...

After three weeks in Dubrovnik, the time has come After three weeks in Dubrovnik, the time has come for me to return to Zagreb. Besides the pandemic reality, in these weeks we had horrible earthquake in Croatia that took lives, destroyed homes and left the whole country in the state of shock. On a personal level we had to face death in the family due to Covid and if somebody tells me ever again that 'they would have died anyway because they were old" I will really lose it!! My little niece and nephew lost their grandmother and we all lost a person we loved. So, it was and still is a difficult time but life taught me many times before that we are stronger than we think and that the most important thing is to find peace within yourself. I still wake up every morning grateful for life, for my people, for photography, for all the little things that make life beautiful. And I dream about all the good things that will come our way... 
Sending you my love and positive thoughts and sharing these not so typical Dubrovnik photos.❤️

I know it's not the most colourful and bright phot I know it's not the most colourful and bright photo for this occasion but it represents what this year has been like for me personally. Difficult, lonely, at times very dark but at the same time with its sweet moments that I get to keep forever in my heart, beauty found in 'ordinary' and sparkles of light that give hope and comfort. I wish that 2021 will bring more freedom, health and happiness for all of us! Thank you for being here with me... ❤️

My favourite moments in these last two days since My favourite moments in these last two days since I came to Dubrovnik are baking ‘orahnjaca’ (Croatian) or ‘potica’ (Slovenian), traditional walnut cake with my mum, harvesting mandarins in our garden with my dad, soaking up the sun that I missed so much after about a month of dark and gloomy days, reading a book on the terrace and stopping every few moments to just look at the sea... All the little things that bring me much needed calm and joy. Hope you are all well and finding your little moments too...☺️❤️

I miss mountains, snow and travelling so here are I miss mountains, snow and travelling so here are few details from the Swiss Alps, a place I called home few years ago... It’s so strange, I am from Dubrovnik, born by the sea and of course I love it but I would choose mountains and forests anytime! It's where my soul is at peace and happiest.☺️❄️How about you?

Crepes with apricot jam are high up on that list too! 😉 I'm curious, what is your favourite comfort food?

Story behind this image: because of all the festive photos on social media these days, I felt pressured to create some in Christmas mood too. But nothing was going as I imagined and I simply was not feeling it. So I decided to put all that away and create something that reflects more of me and what and how I feel at the moment. So this is one of the images from that series. In the end what matters the most is that we create from our heart.✨
