Ingredients
1 1/2 cups flour2 cups spelt flour1/2 tsp salt3/4 cup vegan shortening1 tsp vinegar2-4 tbsp ice water-Filling-10 oz low-fat silken firm tofu (like Mori-Nu)2/3 cup corn syrup1/4 cup agave nectar2 tbsp maple syrup1 tsp vanilla 3/4 cup Demerara sugar1/2 tsp salt1/4 cup melted vegan margarine (I prefer Earth Balance here)3/4 cup dark raisins, soaked in hot water and drained
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Mix flour and salt in a large bowl.
Cut in the shortening until mixture resembles rolled oats.
Stir in the vinegar and enough ice water to make the dough cling together.
Roll out to about 1/8” thick on a floured surface and cut circles, gently place each circle inside a muffin tin making sure to press up the sides as well.
-Filling-
In a food processor, puree the tofu, corn syrup, agave nectar, maple syrup, vanilla, sugar, salt and melted margarine.
Divide the raisins between the bottoms of each pastry cup, then pour enough filling to come 2/3 of the way up the sides of the shells.
Bake for 45 minutes.
Remove from the oven and cool in the tins 15 minutes, then de-pan and allow to cool on wire racks.
