In addition to being a pure delight for the taste buds, these tartelettes are also beneficial for your health, thanks to their low glycemic index.

Ingredients needed for this recipe:

• For the crust:
  • A sweet dough like the one I propose here.
• For the filling:
  • Ripe avocados: They bring a creamy and velvety texture to the filling, in addition to their richness in good fats.
  • High cocoa content dark chocolate: For an intense flavor and richness in antioxidants.
  • Maple syrup: It naturally sweetens the filling, giving it a subtle sweetness.
  • Vanilla extract: To delicately flavor the chocolate and avocado cream.
  • Salt: To enhance the flavors and balance the sweetness of the filling.

Preparation of the low GI dark chocolate and avocado tartelettes:

1. Crust preparation:

In a bowl, mix all the ingredients until you get a homogeneous dough. If the dough is too dry, feel free to add a little water.

On a floured work surface, roll out the dough to about 1 to 2 millimeters thick. Cut strips to make the outlines of your tartlet circles. Then divide the dough into circles to form the bottoms of your tartelettes. Place the tart bottoms in a preheated oven at 180°C for about 15 minutes of baking. Remove the circles and continue baking for another 5 minutes.

2. Filling preparation:

Meanwhile, prepare the filling. In a bowl, mash the avocados with a fork until you get a smooth puree without lumps.

In a saucepan, melt the dark chocolate over low heat. Once melted, remove the saucepan from the heat and add the avocado puree, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Mix well until all the ingredients are perfectly incorporated.

3. Assembly of the tartelettes:

Pour the chocolate and avocado mixture onto the tart bottoms. Spread evenly with a spatula.

Tasting:

Once the tartelettes are filled, place them back in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, until the filling is set.

When serving, decorate them according to your desire: a few hazelnut shards, chocolate shavings, or a touch of light whipped cream.

Ingredients

• 1 pâte sucrée
• 2 avocats mûrs, bien écrasés
• 200 gr de chocolat noir à haute teneur en cacao, fondu
• 75 gr de sirop d'érable (ou plus selon votre goût)
• 1 cuillère à café d'extrait de vanille
• Une pincée de sel

Instructions

1. Dans un saladier, mélangez tous les ingrédients pour la pâte jusqu'à obtenir une pâte homogène. Si la pâte est trop sèche, n'hésitez pas à ajouter un peu d'eau.
2. Sur un plan de travail fariné, étalez la pâte sur 1 à 2 millimètres d'épaisseur environ. Taillez des bandes pour faire les contours de vos cercles à tartelettes. Divisez ensuite la pâte en cercles pour former les fonds de vos tartelettes.
3. Placez les fonds de tartes dans un four préchauffé à 180°C pour environ 15 minutes de cuisson. Retirez les cercles et poursuivez la cuisson encore 5 minutes.
4. Pendant ce temps, préparez la garniture. Dans un bol, écrasez les avocats à l'aide d'une fourchette jusqu'à obtenir une purée lisse et sans morceaux.
5. Dans une casserole, faites fondre le chocolat noir à feu doux. Une fois fondu, retirez la casserole du feu et ajoutez la purée d'avocat, le sirop d'érable, l'extrait de vanille et une pincée de sel. Mélangez bien jusqu'à ce que tous les ingrédients soient parfaitement incorporés.
6. Versez la préparation au chocolat et à l'avocat sur le fond des tartelettes. Répartissez uniformément à l'aide d'une spatule.
7. Une fois les tartelettes garnies, replacez-les au réfrigérateur pendant au moins 2 heures, jusqu'à ce que la garniture soit bien prise.
