1 cup almond meal

. 4 dates Filling
. 6 Tbsp lemon juice
. 1 finely grated lemon rind
. 1 Tbsp honey
. 2 eggs
Pre-heat oven to 180 degrees Celsius (fan-forced). To make the pastry, place ingredients into a blender and mix until well combined. In a muffin tray (or similar), line individual holes with baking paper, and firmly place pastry mixture on the bottom and sides. Place in the oven for 10-12 minutes, or until pastry has browned. Leave to cool.
To make the filling, place lemon juice, lemon rind and honey into a pan and simmer on low heat for 2 minutes. In a bowl, beat eggs well with a fork. When mixture is simmering nicely, slowly add the beaten eggs, stirring vigorously to form a nice smooth texture. Add more honey if desired. Leave to cool slightly.
When pastry has cooled, and the filling has reduced to a warm temperature. You can then spoon the filling into each individual tart. Place in the fridge until cooled and set. Makes around 4 servings, depending on size.
