Directions:
- To make the pastry:.
- Preheat oven to 180°C.
- Grease mini half muffin tins and line a small baking tray with parchment paper.
- Sift together flours, xanthan and salt in to a mixing bowl.
- In your food processor cream the butter, sugar and vanilla until smooth and well combined.
- Gradually add in the dry ingredients and lemon zest until the mixture resembles bread crumbs.
- Add in a tablespoon of water at a time - just enough to create a soft workable dough.
- Knead this dough with a bit of rice flour until workable.
- Wrap the ball of dough in some plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for about half an hour.
- To make the filling:.
- Place all ingredients in the food processor with the chopping blade and puree until smooth.
- Adjust spices and sweetener to taste and then allow to sit.
- Makes 2 cups.
- To assemble:.
- Roll out the dough between two pieces of baking paper.
- Cut bottom cases out with a cookie cutter and place those shells in the mini muffin holes.
- Then cut the top stars with a tiny star cutter and place those on the baking tray.
- Bake the cases in the oven for about 10 minutes or until just browned.
- The stars will only take about 5 minutes.
- Fill each case with filling and then top with a star.
- Bake for another 5 minutes and then allow to cool.
- Serve plain or dust with icing sugar to serve.
