Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup (96g) coconut flour
  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/3 cup maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup coconut oil (solid but softened)
  • 1/2 cup natural creamy peanut butter
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons coconut flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 3 ounces dark chocolate (chopped)
  • 2 tablespoons peanut butter
  • Chopped peanuts
  • Flaky sea salt

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Grease a 24-cavity mini muffin pan with coconut oil.

  2. 2

    Combine coconut flour, cocoa powder and salt in a bowl. Add the maple syrup and room temperature coconut oil and mix until a large dough ball forms, pressing out any clumps of coconut oil. If you're mixing with a bowl and spoon (not a stand mixer), you may want to use your hands at the end to bring to dough fully together and make sure there aren't any lumps of coconut oil remaining.

  3. 3

    Divide the dough between the 24 mini muffin cavities and press up the sides. Bake for 9 minutes for a softer crust, or up to 12 minutes for a firmer, crunchy crust. Let cool completely before using a toothpick or knife to pop the cups out of the muffin tin.

  4. 4

    While the crusts cool, stir together the peanut butter, maple syrup, coconut flour, and salt. Divide the peanut butter filling between the crusts, about a scant 1 tablespoon in each. Place in the refrigerator to set.

  5. 5

    Place the chopped dark chocolate and peanut butter in a heat-proof bowl and microwave for 30 seconds, stir, and then another 15 seconds. Whisk until completely smooth.

  6. 6

    Top each of the cups with the chocolate ganache - you can do this with a spoon, or put the chocolate in a piping bag and pipe it in for a cleaner look. Top each of the tartlets with chopped peanuts and flaky salt.

  7. 7

    Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
