Yogurt Tartlets Recipe

Yogurt Tartlets recipe is a very easy dessert to make. You can top them with almost anything that you want, but the recipe below features coconut yogurt, which is delicious! If you're not a fan of yogurt, try replacing it with ricotta cheese.
If you have a hard time finding whole wheat pastry flour, feel free to substitute unbleached all-purpose flour. I made six little tarts, but I don't see why you couldn't make one large tart using a 9-inch tart pan. If any of you do this (the larger size), let me know, I just haven't had a chance to test it.
Ingredients
- 1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
- ⅓ cup rolled oats
- scant ½ teaspoon fine-grain sea salt
- ⅓ cup + 1 tablespoon butter, coconut oil, or olive oil
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons natural cane sugar (optional)
- ¼ teaspoon toasted sesame oil
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (I use low-fat here)
- ¼ cup maple syrup
- zest of one lemon
- 3 teaspoons fresh ginger juice*
- 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
- crystalized ginger, dried fruit, or fresh fruit/berries for topping
special equipment: 6 small tart (4-inch) pans or I suspect one 9-inch tart pan would be just about right for a single tart.
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350F degrees, rack in the middle. In a medium bowl combine the flour, oats, and salt. In a medium saucepan melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the maple syrup and sugar. Now add the flour and oat mixture to the butter and stir well. Cook a couple minutes - just until you get a bit of a toasted smell. Stir in the sesame oil and remove from heat. Divide mixture into six equal portions, and as soon as it is cool enough, quickly press the mixture into (and up the sides) of each of the tart pans using your fingers and/or the base of a glass. Freeze until completely cooled - 5 or 10 minutes.
- In the meantime, to make the filling, combine the yogurt, maple syrup, lemon zest and ginger juice in a medium mixing bowl. Taste. Add more ginger juice if you like. Now stir in the eggs until well incorporated.
- Fill each tart shell with about ¼ cup of filling (see photo), don't worry if you have a bit leftover. Bake for about 20 - 23 minutes. The filling should be set, and no longer jiggly. Remove the tarts and let cool for ten minutes. Now refrigerate for a couple hours, and serve topped with chopped crystallized ginger, fresh fruit, or dried fruit.
Makes six 4-inch tartlets.
*Fresh ginger juice: Grate peeled ginger with a micro-plane grater. Press and squeeze the grated ginger against a fine strainer extracting as much juice as possible.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is tart yogurt made of?
Ingredients: Water, Sugar, Dextrose, Locust Bean Gum, Xanthan gum, Carrageenan, Natural Flavors, Citric Acid, and Maltodextrin. Skim milk has also been pasteurised and cultured.
Why is Greek yogurt so tart?
Plain Greek yogurt has a more sour taste than regular yogurt due to the fermentation and straining process. This strained yogurt does not contain liquid whey (the leftover remnants after milk is strained).
How to make homemade yogurt more tart?
One important aspect of creating yoghurt is that boiling the milk before culture affects the yogurt's flavour and thickness. The yoghurt will taste delicious and fresh and be thinner and tarter when it sets if the milk is only quickly heated to 165°F/74°C and then cooled.
