Coconut sugar sweetened spelt pastry filled with a decadent creamy filling of white chocolate ganache and cherries in this heavenly dessert. I absolutely adore this egg enriched spelt shortcrust paired with white chocolate and fresh cherries. They go together so well, and taste incredibly delicious. I garnished the tart with lemon thyme and cacao nibs, but you can leave them out or use chocolate chips instead.

- Whisk flour, salt and coconut sugar in a bowl. Add butter and rub in with your fingers until mixture resembles coarse meal with a few pea-size pieces remaining. Drizzle egg over butter mixture and mix gently with a fork until dough just comes together.
- Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth. Form dough into a disk. Wrap in plastic and chill until firm, at least 2 hours.
- Take dough out of the fridge and let it sit on the counter for a few minutes to soften slightly for easy rolling. Roll out the dough between 2 layers of plastic film into an 11-inch circle, then place gently into a 8-9-inch fluted tart pan. Trim the edges of the pastry to fit the tart pan. Cover the tart pan with plastic wrap and freeze for 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 190C/375F. Line the frozen crust with baking paper and fill with enough dried beans to cover the bottom and side of the crust.
- Bake crust for 15 minutes, remove the parchment and pie weight. Bake for an additional 10-12 minutes or until the crust is golden brown. Remove and cool on a wire rack.
- For the filling, place the white chocolate, cream, and butter in a microwave-safe bowl, and heat in 20 second intervals, stirring after each one, until melted and smooth.
- Pour the chocolate filling into the tart crust. Garnish with lemon thyme, cherries and cacao nibs when the filling is set.
