Chocolate Sweet Potato Tart

Valentine wasn’t a holiday that we overly celebrated growing up, but I do remember having something full of chocolate every year. And this Valentine I wanted to create a tasty vegan, a whole-food plant-based chocolate dish that everyone can enjoy.

The base of this dish is very similar to my chocolate sweet potato pie except this tart should be thinner and set a bit more than a pie. To achieve this I am using agar-agar powder which is a great vegan alternative to gelatin made from seaweed. I know that Valentine can be a rough day for some, so my serving size can always be altered down from 6-8 to 1 if needed.

Scale

Ingredients

Crust

1 cup rolled oats
2 tbs maple syrup
1 tbs cacao or cocoa powder

Filling

2 cups cooked sweet potato
1 cup plant-based milk
2 tbs maple syrup
2 tbs cacao or cocoa powder
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp agar-agar powder

Instructions

Add all of the crust ingredients into a food processor or blender. Blitz for 30 to 60 seconds (stopping and scraping the sides down as needed). Pour the oat crust mixture into a pie dish and press down around the base of the dish.
Next, add all of the filling ingredients into the food processor or blender and process 1 to 2 minutes. Pour the mixture into a pot on the stovetop. Cook on a low heat for 5 minutes or until the mixture begins to simmer. Turn the heat off and remove the pot from the burner. Allow the contents to sit and cool for 5 to 10 minutes.
Pour the filling onto the oat crust and smooth out evenly onto the crust. Place in the refrigerator for a minimum of 90 minutes to set up.
