No-Bake Lavender Chai Fruit Tarts

Course: Dessert
Cuisine: Lavender & Chai

Ingredients

Crust

  • 1 3/4 cups raw cashews
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 10 Medjool dated (pitted)
  • 1/4 cup dried cranberries
  • vegetable oil (for greasing the pan)

Filling

  • 1 1/2 cups plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 - 3 tbsp PURE Infused Maple Syrup – Lavender & Chai
  • 2 cups fresh fruit

Instructions

  • Soak dates and cranberries in hot water for 15-20 minutes to soften.  In the bowl of your food processor fitted with the steel blade, grind the cashews and coconut until the mixture resembles a coarse meal.  Drain the dates and cranberries thoroughly, chop the dates, and add them along with the cranberries to the bowl of the food processor. Process until the mixture comes together into a sort of paste.
  • Press the date/nut mixture into the bottom and up the sides of your tart pans, and chill for about an hour to let it firm up a bit before filling.
  • To prepare the filling, simply stir the PURE Lavender and Chai infused maple syrup into Greek yogurt.
  • Top the tarts with an assortment of fresh fruit, whatever tickles your fancy, and you are ready to serve.

Lavender & Chai

For millennia, the sweet smell of lavender was prized for its relaxing and calming influences. We just think it tastes great, which is why we use it to infuse PURE maple syrup with unique floral qualities. Lavender’s fragrant and slightly spicy notes are perfectly balanced by deep and dusky Indian masala. It’s the ideal complement to sweet treats like panna cotta, crème brulee, tea cakes or scones. The lavender really pops when we drizzle it over strong, aged cheeses such as cheddar or gouda. For something more subtle, sweeten a café latte with it – delicious!

How To Use

  • Panna cotta and crème brulee
  • Tea cakes and scones
  • Warm drinks (coffee, tea, lattes or hot chocolate)
  • Cold drinks (homemade iced tea or lemonade)
  • Strong aged cheeses such as cheddar or gouda (the lavender really pops!)
  • Paired with fresh peaches, blueberries, strawberries or raspberries (even a fresh fruit salad)
  • Liberally brush it on fresh pineapple, peaches or pears before grilling for a truly sensational caramelized treat.
