Greetings from Alice, your personal Cooker. Today I would like to give you a suggestion of how to use the protein shortcrust pastry, proposed in one of my previous recipes. I remind you briefly that this type of shortcrust pastry is enriched with concentrated soy proteins and is prepared without the use of butter (for this reason, it can be defined as "light"). Today we will use this base to make a protein tart with chocolate and hazelnuts, also enriched with concentrated soy proteins, without necessarily having to add sugar. Let's find out the ingredients.

Ingrediants
For the protein shortcrust pastry (about 450 g)

- 1 pinch of salt
- 30 g of concentrated soy protein
- 5 g of baking powder
- 30 g of fructose
- 100 g of spreadable cheese
- 170 g of white flour type 00
- 40 g (1 medium) of egg white
To decorate
- About 20 g of hazelnuts
For the filling
- 50 g of dark chocolate
- 30 g of concentrated soy protein
- 150 ml of milk
- 4 g of hazelnuts
- 50 g of sultanas
Materials Needed
- Rolling pin
- Pastry board
- Pan with a diameter of 24 cm
- Pots for the bain marie
- Wooden ladles
- Wheel or knife
- Food cutting board
Preparation
- Roll out the protein shortcrust pastry with a rolling pin, taking care to flour the top well.
To prepare the protein shortcrust pastry, mix 170 g of white flour, 30 g of concentrated soy protein, a pinch of salt, 5 g of baking powder and 30 g of fructose. At this point, add an egg white, a whole egg, a flavoring to taste and 100 g of low-fat cream cheese. Leave the pastry to rest in the refrigerator at least 3 hours before using it.
- Line a pan with a diameter of 24 cm with the shortcrust pastry, ending with a thick border: to improve the appearance of the shortcrust pastry, it is possible to make small incisions with the knife or with the wheel on the edge of the shortcrust pastry (it is advisable to refer to the video).
- Cut the hazelnuts into coarse pieces with a knife or crescent. Soak the raisins in plenty of very hot water.
- Melt the dark chocolate (reduced to small pieces) with the milk in a saucepan for the bain-marie. Then add the concentrated soy proteins (or ultra-micro-filtered whey proteins), the hazelnuts and the raisins well squeezed by the soaking water. Those who wish can also add a little fructose to the chocolate sauce.
- Pour the protein chocolate sauce on the shortcrust pastry, directly inside the pan. Decorate with some hazelnuts and possibly with pieces of leftover shortcrust pastry.
- Bake at 180 ° C for about 20-30 minutes.
Alice's comment - PersonalCooker
Here it is, the beautiful (and good) protein tart proposed by My-personaltrainerTv. This tart, which keeps well for a few days in the refrigerator tightly closed in an airtight container, is suitable for an afternoon snack or even for post-workout integration.Nutritional values and Health Comment on the recipe
The protein chocolate tart is a fairly calorie-laden sweet pastry food, but not excessively fat-laden. It is particularly suitable for sports nutrition and should be placed mainly in the post-workout meal (even if the fiber intake is discreet and the glycemic index is fairly moderate), but far from a main meal. Portions of about 60- 80g (150-200kcal).
