Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup raw cashews, soaked overnight and thoroughly drained
1/2 cup water
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons pure maple syrup, and more to taste
1 vanilla bean, split and scraped
3/4 cup desiccated coconut
3 or 4 ripe but firm bananas
1 1/2 cups whole pecans
Pinch of coarse salt
1 1/2 cups pitted dates
2 teaspoons pure maple syrup

Steps:

  • Make tart shell: Coarsely chop pecans and salt in a food processor. Add dates; pulse until thoroughly combined, 15 to 20 seconds. Add syrup; pulse just until combined and mixture sticks together. Press nut mixture firmly and evenly into a 9-inch pie plate, wetting your fingers as needed. Set tart shell aside.

  • Thinly slice bananas on the bias; arrange in slightly overlapping rows, beginning at edge of tart. Sprinkle with reserved coconut; serve immediately.

BANANA AND COCONUT CASHEW-CREAM TART



Banana and Coconut Cashew-Cream Tart image

Categories     Dessert     Banana     Coconut     Cashew     Raw

Yield Makes one 9-inch tart

Number Of Ingredients 12

For the Crust
1 1/2 cups whole raw pecans
Pinch of coarse salt
1 1/2 cups pitted dates
2 teaspoons pure maple syrup
For the Filling
1 cup raw cashews, soaked overnight and thoroughly drained
1/2 cup water
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons pure maple syrup, plus more to taste
1 vanilla bean, halved lengthwise and seeds scraped (reserve pod for another use)
3/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
3 or 4 ripe, firm bananas

Steps:

  • Make the crust: In a food processor, pulse pecans and salt until nuts are coarsely chopped. Add dates; pulse until thoroughly combined, 15 to 20 seconds. Add syrup; pulse just until combined and mixture sticks together. Press nut mixture firmly and evenly into a 9-inch pie plate, wetting your fingers as needed.
  • Make the filling: Grind drained cashews to a coarse paste in a blender. Add the water, syrup, and vanilla seeds; blend until smooth, about 5 minutes, scraping sides as needed. Mixture should reach the consistency of thick pancake batter. Set aside 2 tablespoons coconut; add remainder to blender, and process to combine. Pour into shell, spreading evenly.
  • Thinly slice bananas on the diagonal; beginning at outer edge, arrange slices in slightly overlapping rows, working toward the center. Sprinkle evenly with reserved coconut; serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: Overripe bananas are ideal for this recipe as they are sweeter and have a more intense flavor.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the crust tough, so be sure to mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a tart pan with removable bottom: This will make it easier to remove the tart from the pan after baking.
  • Chill the tart before serving: This will help the flavors to meld and the crust to set.
  • Garnish with fresh fruit or whipped cream before serving: This will add a pop of color and flavor to the tart.

Conclusion:

This banana and coconut cashew cream tart is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its creamy filling, crunchy crust, and tropical flavor, this tart is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give this recipe a try.
