Ingredients

For the Dough:

  • 2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1/3 cup water
  • 3/4 cup plant-based margarine
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

For the Filling:

  • 14 oz silken tofu
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon starch
  • 1 teaspoon curcuma
  • 1 tablespoon herbs de Provence (thyme, oregano, rosemary, and basil)
  • 1 pinch kala namak
  • 1 large leek
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • about 15 sun-dried tomatoes
  • about 15 black olives

Instructions

  • Make the dough: Combine all ingredients in a bowl and knead into a smooth dough. Form a small ball and let it rest in the fridge for about 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, cut the leek into rings. In a medium pan, heat the olive oil and add the leek and a pinch of salt. Stir gently for about 4 minutes until it begins to soften. Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the silken tofu, the oil, the starch, curcuma, herbs de Provence and – if using – kala namak. Whisk until smooth. Chop the sun-dried tomatoes and cut the olives into rings. Add them together with the leek to the tofu-mixture and stir well.
  • Divide the dough into twelve portions and place twelve baking cups into a muffin tray. Evenly press the dough balls into the bottom and all the way up the sides of the muffin cups. Fill with the tofu-mixture and bake for 30-35 minutes at 180 °C (356 °F). Serve together with a green salad or as a snack. The mini quiches are also great when filled with mushrooms and spinach.
