To make the crust, place coconut oil, oats, gluten free flour, unsweetened cacao powder, coconut nectar, cinnamon and salt in a food processor. Pulse until it looks like wet sand.
Pour crust mixture into the pan and press onto the bottom and up the sides of the pan.

To make the filling, boil 2/3 cup of water and mix in espresso powder. Place in a clean food processor. Add cacao powder to the food processor and mix.
Melt chocolate, coconut nectar, vanilla extract, coconut oil and pink salt in a double boiler. Let cool and add to the food processor. Mix for 30 seconds and let cool for 5 minutes. Pour filling into the tart shell.
Heat a pan with a little oil and add the oats, coconut sugar, cinnamon and salt. Stir until melted. Sprinkle over the chocolate filling.
Place tart in the fridge for 1 hour or until completely chilled.
Serve with fresh berries.
