Ingredients
  

For the Jam
  • 2 cups fresh or frozen raspberries or fruit of choice
  • 1 cup granulated sugar or powdered sugar
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch or chia seeds
For the Pastry
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour or gluten-free flour blend
  • 1/2 cup vegan block butter or margarine
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar or granulated sugar
  • 2-4 tablespoons cold water adjust for consistency

Equipment

  • Medium saucepan
  • large bowl or food processor
  • cookie cutter or glass rim
  • mini tart tins
  • baking sheet

Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. In a medium saucepan, combine raspberries, sugar, water, and cornstarch. Cook over medium heat for 5-10 minutes, mashing berries as they soften until thickened and glossy. Remove from heat and cool.
  2. In a large bowl or food processor, mix flour, vegan butter, powdered sugar, and cold water until the dough clumps together. Form into a ball, wrap in plastic, and chill for 10 minutes.
  3. Roll out dough to ¼ inch thickness on a floured surface. Cut out circles to fit mini tart tins, gathering scraps to use again.
  4. Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease tart tins and press dough circles in. Fill with 1 tablespoon of cooled jam.
  5. Bake for about 20 minutes until edges are golden brown. Let cool in tins for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
