For a sweet Easter, the classic pastiera though ... gluten-free!
preparation
step 1
First prepare the mixture A (which will then be combined with the compound B): Rinse the quinoa, put it in a saucepan with the soy drink, the orange peel and the essence of vanilla.Let cook over medium / low heat until the mixture becomes creamy
step 2
While the mixture A cooks, prepare the base of the pastiera. In a bowl add the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, lemon peel and a pinch of salt. Jumbled up.
step 3
In a container pour the oil and malt, mix them and then add them to the dry ingredients, kneading until a shortcrust. Add a little vanilla drink to make it workable. Wrap in foil and let it rest in the fridge for half an hour.
step 4
Finally prepare the B mixture of the pastiera. If you use tofu in dough, cook it in boiling salted water for 10 minutes, drain it, dry it and leave it to cool.
step 5
In a food processor, add the chopped tofu, maple syrup, orange juice and a pinch of salt. Reduce in cream. If you use the silken tofu you can skip the passage of boiling and avoid using the mixer by mixing the ingredients with a spatula.
step 6
Add the compound A to the compound B and add the essence of orange blossom (which in the ingredients I referred to as concentrated orange juice). Mix well.
step 7
Preheat the oven to 160 degrees. Roll out the dough of the base in a dough about half a centimeter thick. Place it in a 20/22 cm diameter baking dish or tart.
step 8
Pour the filling and level it. With the leftovers of the base mix create the classic strips of the pastiera, or give space to the imagination for creative decorations.
step 9
Bake in static oven for 30 minutes, or in any case until the pastry is cooked and the filling is compacted. Be careful not to overcook the pastiera otherwise it will burn. Happy Easter!
