Ingredients

• 250 grams All-purpose flour
• 100 grams Coconut oil
• 4 tablespoons Cold water
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 100 grams Almonds
• 100 grams Walnuts
• 4 tablespoons Maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Cut the coconut oil into small pieces and add to the flour mixture.

Step 3

Use a fork or pastry cutter to mix the coconut oil into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

Gradually add the cold water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing gently until the dough starts to come together. Form the dough into a disc, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 15 minutes.

Step 5

In the meantime, prepare the filling. Coarsely chop the almonds and walnuts and add them to a bowl.

Step 6

Mix the nuts with maple syrup, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract until well combined.

Step 7

Remove the dough from the refrigerator and roll it out on a lightly floured surface to a thickness of about 1/4 inch.

Step 8

Cut the dough into rectangles, approximately 4x6 inches in size.

Step 9

Place a spoonful of the nut mixture onto one half of each rectangle, leaving a small border around the edges.

Step 10

Fold over the other half of each rectangle to enclose the filling, pressing the edges gently to seal.

Step 11

Use a fork to crimp the edges, securing the filling inside the pastry.

Step 12

Place the filled pastries on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown.

Step 13

Allow the pastries to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
