vegan, with spinach, tomato and pine nuts

Knead the dough ingredients together, roll the dough into a ball. Wrap in cling film and refrigerate for half an hour. Meanwhile, finely dice the onion and sauté in a pan with a little oil until translucent, then add the spinach. Mix with the remaining filling ingredients in a food processor until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Unwrap the dough and roll out thinly. Cut out 12 circles slightly larger than the cups of a muffin tin. Press the dough into the cups of the tin and prick several times with a fork. Pre-bake in the oven at 180°C (top/bottom heat) for 10 minutes. Spread the filling over the dough and finish each quiche with half a cherry tomato and a few pine nuts. Bake in the oven at 200°C for about 20-30 minutes, until the tops of the quiches begin to brown. Makes 12 quiches.
