Dairy-Free Pumpkin Tarts
- For the vegan pastry:
- 1 1/8 cups sifted or whole spelt flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 tablespoons sugar
- 1/2 cup coconut oil or vegan shorting
- 1/2 cup Ice Water
- 1 tablespoon Apple Cider Vinegar
- For the pumpkin filling:
- 1 can/ 398 milliliters pumpkin puree
- 6 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon molasses
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup milk of choosing (vegan or dairy)
- In a food processor, pulse the flour, salt, and sugar to combine.
- Add the cold coconut oil. Mix the vinegar with the water and slowly add a tablespoon at a time, just until the mixture holds together when lightly squeezed.
- Flatten the dough into a disk (you may need to knead it a bit), and wrap in cling film, and chill for a couple of hours.
- Once chilled, take out the dough and let soften up for a couple of minutes. Preheat the oven to 350u0b0 F. I like to work in small batches, so I divided mine in half and rolled each half about an 1/8 inch (.30 centimeter) thick. I used a small bowl to cut out 5-inch (12-centimeter) circles, but anything around that size will do.
- Press into a muffin pan, and using a fork, poke a few holes in the bottom of the tart. Chill until firm. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes.
- For the pumpkin filling, mix all the ingredients together with a whisk until smooth.
- Add pumpkin filling to the pre-baked shells, and bake for another 20 to 30 minutes, or until the filling is set but still jiggles.
