Title: Christmas Mincemeat Slab Pie Vegan Gluten Free Recipe Food To Glow
Ingredients:
For the mincemeat filling:
– 1 cup raisins
– 1 cup currants
– 1 cup dried cranberries
– 1 cup chopped peeled apples
– 1/2 cup chopped almonds
– Zest and juice of 1 orange
– 1/2 cup maple syrup
– 1/4 cup brandy (optional)
– 1 tsp ground cinnamon
– 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
– 1/4 tsp ground cloves
– 1/4 tsp ground allspice
– Pinch of salt
For the gluten-free pastry:
– 2 cups gluten-free flour blend
– 1/2 cup almond flour
– 1/4 cup coconut sugar
– 1/2 tsp salt
– 1/2 cup cold coconut oil, cubed
– 1/4 cup cold water, or more as needed
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, combine all the mincemeat filling ingredients. Mix well to ensure all the flavors are evenly distributed. Set aside.
3. In a separate bowl, mix the gluten-free flour blend, almond flour, coconut sugar, and salt for the pastry. Add the cold coconut oil cubes and rub them into the flour mixture using your fingertips until it resembles breadcrumbs.
4. Gradually add cold water to the pastry mixture, one tablespoon at a time, and mix until a dough forms. Be careful not to overwork the pastry.
5. Divide the pastry dough into two equal parts. Roll out one part into a rectangular shape on a floured surface to fit the baking tray.
6. Carefully transfer the rolled-out pastry to the prepared baking tray. Spoon the mincemeat filling on top of the pastry, spreading it evenly.
7. Roll out the remaining pastry dough and carefully cover the mincemeat filling. Trim any excess dough and crimp the edges to seal the slab pie.
8. Using a sharp knife, make a few small slits on the top pastry layer to allow steam to escape during baking.
9. Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and cooked through.
10. Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool slightly before slicing and serving warm or at room temperature. Enjoy the festive flavors of Christmas mincemeat in this delightful vegan and gluten-free treat!
