  • 3 tbsp. agave syrup
  • 1 cup soaked pitted dates*

  • 1 mango

  2. Pour into the tart shell and refrigerate again.
  3. Scoop out the coconut cream fro the top of both tins of coconut milk (making sure you don't use any of the water) and place in a stand mixer/whisk or a bowl if using a hand held whisk.
  4. Whisk for a minute or two until fluffy and forms peaks.
  5. Spread the coconut cream on top of the tart evenly. Top with lime zest and lime slices and extra coconut cream if desired.
  6. Chill in the fridge for at least 1 hour
Notes
This depends on how dry your dates are. I soak mine overnight or at least 3 hours before. If you use medjool dates then there is no need to soak.
The dates are used to bind the crust, so add accordingly to the texture of your crust.
