Ingredients
Crust
- 1 1/4 cups almond flour
- ½ cup cassava flour
- 1/2 tsp granulated garlic
- ¼ tsp sea salt
- 5 tbsp cold butter or organic palm shortening for dairy-free
- 1 large egg
- 2 tbsp cold water
Filling
- 1 cup full fat coconut milk
- 4 large eggs
- 8 oz frozen spinach thawed and drained
- 3-4 whole artichoke hearts about 1/2 14-ounce can, drained and diced
- 2 medium shallots finely diced and sauteed
- 2 spring onions or garlic scapes
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- To make the crust, stir together the flours, salt and garlic in a mixing bowl. Cut in the butter or shortening using a pastry cutter or your fingers until you have a crumbly mixture.
- Whisk in the egg and one tablespoon of water and using your hands, knead together until a ball of dough forms. *Note - if it's too dry and crumbly, add the second tablespoon of water (I used two for my recipe).
- Wrap the ball of dough with plastic wrap or parchment paper and place in the refrigerator for at least one hour.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit.
- Remove the dough from the refrigerator and roll it out between two pieces of parchment paper or use your fingers to push the dough in a 9-inch pie pan. Use a fork to pierce a few holes in the bottom of the dough.
- Pre-cook the crust for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside.
- Heat a grill pan on medium heat and grill spring onions for one minute on each side. Remove to a plate. Once slightly cooled, slice the spring onions in half lengthwise (you don't need to do this if using garlic scapes).
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until light and frothy. Add the spinach, artichoke hearts, shallots, salt and pepper and stir to combine.
- Pour the filling mixture into the crust and place pie pan on a cookie sheet. Cook for 45-55 minutes at 350 degrees fahrenheit, until the center is cooked. Halfway through, cover the top with aluminum foil to prevent the top from burning.
