Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. Make the crust. Using a food processor, process all the crust ingredients until they resemble a coarse meal.
  3. Pour the mixture out into the tart pan and press it across the bottom and up the sides so it is an even layer. Put the pan in the oven and bake for 15 minutes on the middle rack.
  4. In a bowl, mix together all the filling ingredients.
  5. Pour filling into the crust and spread into an even layer.
  6. Bake for 50-55 minutes on the middle rack until the pumpkin topping is firm.
  7. Allow to cool completely and then remove the tart from the pan. For a little something extra, serve with coconut whipped cream
