The Pastry

-
400g Plain White Spelt Flour (or ordinary flour)
-
200g Organic Naturli Vegan Block or Flora vegan block
-
1/4 Tspn Baking Powder (optional - I prefer a very slightly softer pastry. If you prefer a crispy pastry don't add it)
-
2 Tspns Sugar (or to taste)
-
A little Lemon Zest (optional)
-
A little Oat Milk for binding ingredients if required
Bind together and roll out on greaseproof paper.


Use the greaseproof paper to lift the pastry into the flan dish to help prevent it breaking (and keep your tin clean ;) )
Tip

-
Gently press the pastry into the corners
-
Use the rolling pin to trim the edges
-
Now prick the pastry to prevent it rising
-
Then place it in fridge to rest while you prepare the filling (this will stop the pastry shrinking by hydrating the flour, relaxing the gluten and firming the fat)
11 inch Baking Tin (Loose Bottom)


...Or a 12 Hole Muffin Tin

The Filling

Finely Grate Zest, & Juice 4 Lemons or approx 250ml Juice (to your taste)
Make approx. 900ml of Lemon Filling

Add a sprinkle of Turmeric for colour
(careful not to add too much, it darkens)


-
Add 450 ml Water
-
200 ml Oat Milk
-
Use some of the water to mix 90g of Cornflour
-
Add 2 tablespoons sugar (or to taste) at the beginning
-
Add 25g Vegan Block at last minute
-
Ensure the mix bubbles for 1 minute while stirring after adding cornflour slurry

Add 25g Vegan Butter
Seal the pastry with a light brushing of veringue mix or mix a little veringue powder with water + sugar to create a slurry

Bake for 5 mins 175°C

Add your hot filling
This helps to seal the underside of the veringue topping & prevent weeping

Use all of your 17g measure mix
I like to make an extra round of veringue because that's always the part everyone eats first! ;)

Put in fridge for at least 3 hours for a sliceable pie



I sprinkled some of the
Lemon Zest on top with some
Edible Jasmine Buds
Note: The Jasmine Buds look so beautiful for decoration, but I don't think it added to the texture and flavour of the eating experience.
Please LMK if you have different experiences :)
I like my lemon filling slightly softer & not too firm so adjust the cornflour to your taste.
