Jamaican Patties

RECIPE:

Filling:
3 cups HV veggie ground
2 tbsp ground flax
Salt to taste
1 tsp allspice
1 tsp thyme
¼ tsp cayenne
1 tsp onion powder
Optional:
3/4 tsp curry powder
1/4 tsp ground ginger

Crust
2 ½ cups fine almond flour
⅔ cup arrowroot powder
4 tbsp ground flax
½ cup + 2 tbsp water
1 1/2 tsp salt
¼ tsp turmeric

PREPARE FILLING

In a bowl combine veggie ground beef with spices and ground flax. Mix to combine.

PREPARE THE DOUGH

Combine flax and water and set aside.
Combine almond flour, starch, salt, and turmeric together in a bowl.
Add the flax mixture and mix with a spoon until it begins to come together.
It is best to use your hands at this point to bring it all together to form a ball of dough.
Divide the dough into six equal portions.

ROLL THE DOUGH

One at a time, place each ball of dough between 2 sheets of parchment paper to roll into a roughly 8-inch circle. Use a 7-inch round bowl or other round object and cut around to create a clean edge.

FILL

Add about ⅓ cup of filling (adjust if necessary) to one half of the circular crust.
Gently fold over the crust's other side, taking care not to tear it. This dough will not stretch like regular dough. Seal the pocket by gently pressing with a fork. Dip the fork in tapioca starch if it is sticking.

CHILL

Cover and place patties in the freezer for 20 minutes.

Poke tops with a fork 4-6 times.

BAKE AND SERVE

Bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes until the crust is lightly golden around the edges. Remove from the oven and enjoy!
