I haven't got the vegan pastry as good as I want it yet, but I do need to remember the filling (which was delicious) for next year.


Poppy Seed Filling Ingredients:

  • 6 tbsp poppy seeds, ground into a meal 
  • 3 tbsp maple syrup {or honey, agave, etc.}
  • 1½ tbsp non-dairy butter of your choice (~ 21 gm)
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • ⅛ tsp salt
  • 3 tbsp raisins



    Instructions

    Place all filling ingredients in a food processor and process until combined.
