Another hit at this year's bake sale, a batch of vegan mini-pies with a naturally sweet, gooey apice-apple filling inside a spelt and flaxseed crust. Fall heaven!
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp ground flaxseed shopping list
- 1/4 cup boiling water shopping list
- 1 cup spelt flour shopping list
- 1 cup flour shopping list
- 1/2 tsp salt shopping list
- 5 tbsp shortening shopping list
- 3 tablespoons ice water shopping list
- 1/2 tbsp apple cider vinegar shopping list
- 2 large tart apples, peeled and diced shopping list
- 1 large sweet apple, unpeeled and diced shopping list
- 1 tbsp tapioca starch shopping list
- 1/2 tbsp pumpkin pie spice shopping list
- 1/2 tsp apple juice shopping list
How to make it
- Combine flaxseed and boiling water in a small dish, stirring to combine. Set aside 15 minutes to cool and thicken.
- Whisk together flours and salt in a large bowl.
- Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Gently stir in flaxseed mixture.
- Combine ice water and vinegar. Stir into the flour mixture until just blended.
- Turn dough out onto a floured surface, knead slightly just to have dough come together.
- Wrap in cling film and refrigerate 8-12 hours.
- Preheat oven to 345F.
- Combine apples, tapioca, spice and apple juice in a bowl, tossing well. Set aside 10 minutes.
- Roll out pie dough thinly and cut out 8 rounds large enough to fit into 8 muffin cups. Place into cups, leaving overhang untrimmed.
- Fill each cup with heaping amounts of the apple mixture.
- Using the remaining dough, make "lids" for the mini-pies and place over filling, cutting slits into the tops for ventilation.
- Bake 35 minutes in the hot oven, rotating pans halfway through baking.
- Allow to cool thoroughly before serving.
