An easy and healthy key lime pie tart featuring a date crust and So Delicious Dairy Free® Key Lime Yogurt Alternative
Have you met the magical date? {No, I don’t mean a romantic evening!}
I’m referring to the fruit that grows on the Date Palm Tree.
It took me over 20 years to meet this sweet treat & I was pretty apprehensive to try it.
My first encounter was when I made Minimalist Baker’s Peanut Butter Cup Energy Bites. & I literally couldn’t believe how amazing they were – especially since such an unattractive dried fruit was the main attraction.
But I still did not consider dates a true dessert treat or something you would become overly excited about – enter Andrew from Season 7 of The Great British Bake Off: (paraphrasing -) My dad used to keep dates in the dashboard! – what?!? who becomes excited over keeping dried dates in the car?! I can totally understand chocolate or something, but dates!?!
Any who, now it’s time to meet your new favorite treat – Key Lime Pie Tarts. These are truly so amazing. It doesn’t hurt they’re healthy and easy, too!
These would make the perfect after school snack or even breakfast! For any age 🙂 They can be made ahead of time and then quickly grab out of the fridge and serve.
Simply whip up the date crust that includes pecans, coconut, and chia seeds, press into tart pans, chill and then add So Delicious Dairy Free® Key Lime Yogurt Alternative.
After school, kids can be tired. This great tart includes healthy ingredients to give kids the extra boost they need to tackle homework.
This treat helps make going back to school a little easier. A quick and healthy treat is just what busy parents and kids need.
Additionally, they feature So Delicious Dairy Free® Key Lime yogurt alternative. This yogurt alternative is honestly so delicious and tastes just like dessert. This dairy free alternative contains probiotic culture. Also, it is made with simple ingredients that are Non-GMO Project Verified, Certified Gluten-Free, and Certified Vegan.
This yogurt alternative can be found at your local Walmart in the yogurt section.
