Chocolate & Pomegranate Festive Tarts

Crust:

1 cup almonds
1¼ cup oats (I used gluten free oats)
3 tbsp cacao powder
1 cup pitted Medjool dates
¼ teaspoon sea salt
1 tbsp coconut oil (no need to melt)
3 tbsp water


Filling

1 scoop Chocolate Protein Powder

2 small-medium avocado
3 tablespoon cacao
4 tablespoon maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 tablespoon coconut cream (the fat from a can of coconut milk)*


Toppings

¼ cup dark chocolate, chopped
½ pomegranate, deseeded

Prepare crust by adding almonds, oats and cacao to a food processor. Blend on high until it forms a fine crumb. Add in dates, salt, coconut oil and blend. The mixture should start to form a dough, but if it's too dry add in the water a tbsp at a time until it sticks together.

Lightly grease tart tins with a little coconut oil. Press crust into tins and set aside in the fridge.

Empty out food processor and add in all filling ingredients. Blend on high until smooth and glossy.

Spoon dollops of filling into each crust and top with chopped chocolate and pomegranate. These keep well in the fridge for up to 4 days.

* To make sure your can of coconut milk has coconut cream in it – shake the can before you buy it. if you can’t hear much water in there, you know you’ve got a good one! You can also pop it in the fridge overnight to aid with the separation process. In the morning, the fat will have risen to the top. Save the water to use in smoothies and oatmeal.

Almond Cinnamon Pancakes with Glow Yoghurt Berry Compote

Try the Glow Inner Beauty Powder
The comprehensive inner beauty blend with over 20 bio-fermented wholefoods – this delicious recipe will boost your beauty, nourish your gut and enhance skin radiance. Plus, it’s delish!

Pancakes:



3/ 4 cup (75g – 2 ¾ oz) almond meal
1/ 2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/ 4 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
2 large organic eggs, separated
1/ 4 cup (60ml – 2 fl oz) drinking coconut milk
1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
1 tablespoon ghee, melted & cool, plus extra for cooking
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar (unpasteurised)



Berry Compote:



1 ½ cups (180g – 6 ½ oz) frozen mixed berries
2 teaspoons water
2 teaspoons pure maple syrup
½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract



GLOW yoghurt:



¾ cup (180ml – 6 fl oz) coconut yoghurt
2 teaspoons GLOW Inner Beauty Essential



Topping:



2 teaspoons cacao nibs


METHOD: 

1. To prepare the berry compote, place the berries, water, maple syrup and vanilla extract in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over low heat. Simmer for 5 minutes, or until berries soften and the released juice begins to reduce to a syrupy consistency.

2. To prepare the GLOW yoghurt, mix the yoghurt and GLOW together in a small bowl, to combine. Set aside.

3. To prepare the pancakes, place the almond meal, cinnamon and bicarbonate of soda in a blender and pulse to combine. Add the egg yolks, coconut milk, maple syrup, ghee and vinegar and blend to make a smooth batter.

4. In a separate bowl whisk the whites, until soft peaks form.

5. Gradually pour the batter into the whites, folding to combine.

6. To cook the pancakes, heat a large non-stick or cast-iron frying pan over low-medium heat. Dip some kitchen paper into ghee and rub over the hot pan to lightly grease.

7. Cook the pancakes three at a time, spooning ¼ cup (60ml – 2 fl oz) of the batter for each one around the pan, allowing a little room between each. Cook for 1 ½ minutes or until the base is golden brown. Using a metal spatula run around underneath the edge of the pancakes to ensure they aren’t stuck. The pancakes are very light and soft. Carefully flip in one motion. Cook for 1 minute, or until golden brown. Transfer onto a plate, cover to keep warm and set aside. Repeat with the remaining batter.

8. To serve, stack the pancakes, top with glow yoghurt and berry compote. Scatter with cacao nibs.
