Raspberry Chocolate Truffle Tart

If you've looked through my recipes, you know that I'm a big fan of Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free 1-to-1 Baking Flour because it makes gluten free baking a breeze! You can directly replace the all-purpose flour in any of your favorite recipes with this gluten free baking flour and that's it! No additional ingredients or extra effort necessary. For a busy mom of three like me, that has been a wonderful time saver in the kitchen!

But occasionally I want to try something new... so I did! I picked up a bag of teff flour to give it a try. Teff is a naturally gluten free, ancient grain that is high in fiber, iron, protein, and calcium. Sounded like a winner to me! So when I saw this recipe on the back, I thought I should totally give it a shot. Anything with chocolate has to be good in my book! Apparently everyone at our Thanksgiving gathering thought so, too, because this is all that was left...

Silly me forgot to take a picture of the tart before I set it out on the counter to be served. But I think the near-empty platter speaks volumes as to how much my extended family enjoyed it! Here's a close up of a slice, with the sweet raspberry jam oozing out of the middle...

Raspberry Chocolate Truffle Tart
Yield: 10” tart

Ingredients
Crust:
 2 cups teff flour
 1/2 cup vegetable oil
 1/2 tsp salt
 1/4 cup honey
 2 Tbsp cold water

Filling:
 1 cup raspberry jam (seedless)
 1 cup full fat coconut milk
 1 tsp vanilla
 2 cups bittersweet chocolate

Directions
For crust:
 1. Preheat oven to 375°F.
 2. In large bowl, mix all ingredients together until fully blended. Dough should have crumby appearance. Press mixture into 10” tart tin and bake for 12-15 minutes.
 3. Let crust cool in tin. Cool completely before filling.

For filling:
 4. Spread bottom of cooled tart shell with even layer of jam.
 5. In medium saucepan, heat coconut milk and vanilla over medium heat until it starts to boil. Remove from heat and whisk in chocolate. Make sure chocolate is fully blended and no lumps remain.
 6. Pour still warm chocolate ganache filling over jam layer in tart shell.
 7. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
 8. Tart will keep in refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

Notes
* My tart tin is 11” and the recipe still turned out great!
* Teff pie crust can also be used in 9” pie dish for traditional fruit pies.

Update 2/7/19: I finally made this recipe again and remembered to take a photo of the finished product before slicing into it!
