• 1 cup Spinach, chopped
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 cup Chickpea flour
• 2 tablespoons Nutritional yeast
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Black salt (Kala Namak)
• 0.25 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper

• 12 Gluten-free mini tart shells

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

In a medium-sized skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and diced red bell pepper, sauté for about 5 minutes until they start to soften.

Step 3

Add spinach and garlic to the skillet, cooking for an additional 2 minutes until spinach is wilted. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 4

In a mixing bowl, combine chickpea flour, nutritional yeast, baking powder, turmeric powder, black salt, and black pepper. Whisk these dry ingredients together.

Step 5

Gradually add water to the dry ingredients, whisking until you have a smooth batter with no lumps.

Step 6

Fold the sautéed vegetable mixture into the batter along with halved cherry tomatoes and chopped chives or spring onions.

Step 7

Arrange the gluten-free mini tart shells on a baking sheet, and carefully spoon the quiche batter into each shell, filling them to the top.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are firm to the touch and lightly golden.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy these dairy-free mini quiches warm or at room temperature.
