Ingredients
  

For the tart crust:

1 cup almond flour

1/4 cup melted coconut oil

2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup

1/4 teaspoon salt

For the almond cream filling:

1/2 cup almond paste

1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened

1/4 cup sugar

1 large egg

1 teaspoon almond extract

1/4 cup heavy cream

For the raspberry topping:

1 cup fresh raspberries

1 tablespoon sugar (optional, for sweetness)

Mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the tart crust:

    - Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

      - In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, melted coconut oil, honey (or maple syrup), and salt. Mix until a dough forms.

        - Press the dough evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a mini tart pan or individual tartlet pans.

          - Prick the bottom of each crust with a fork to prevent puffing up during baking. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until lightly golden. Remove from oven and let cool.

            Make the almond cream filling:

              - In a separate bowl, beat together the almond paste, softened butter, and sugar until smooth and creamy.

                - Add the egg, almond extract, and heavy cream. Mix until fully incorporated and the mixture is fluffy.

                  Assemble the tarts:

                    - Spoon the almond cream filling evenly into the cooled tart crusts, filling them about 3/4 full.

                      - Bake the tarts in the oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the almond cream is golden and set.

                        Prepare the raspberry topping:

                          - While the tarts are baking, if desired, toss the fresh raspberries with a tablespoon of sugar to enhance their sweetness. This step is optional as raspberries are typically sweet and tart.

                            Finish and serve:

                              - Once the tarts are baked, allow them to cool completely. Top each tart with a handful of fresh raspberries.

                                - Garnish with fresh mint leaves for an extra touch of color and flavor.

                                  Enjoy your delightful Mini Raspberry Almond Tarts!
