Instructions

The Bites:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly coat a mini tart pan (holds 24) with cooking spray.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the whole wheat pastry flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the pumpkin, maple syrup, egg, coconut oil and vanilla extract.
  • Add the maple syrup mixture to the flour mixture, and stir to combine. Do not over stir.
  • Using about 1 teaspoon for each bite, evenly fill the tart cups with the batter.
  • Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center of a bite comes out clean, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Cool slightly, then remove the bites from the pan and cool on a rack.

The Glaze:

  • In a small bowl, stir together the maple syrup and cinnamon. Using a pastry brush, brush the top of each bite with a light coating of the glaze. Top each bite with a few grains of sea salt. Serve.
