Instructions
Roast the Tomatoes
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, add tomatoes and drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt, pepper and dried dill. Toss gently to coat.
- Arrange tomatoes in a single layer on baking sheet, cut-side up. Roast for 20 minutes and rotate tray for even cooking. Roast for another 15 minutes or until browning.
- Remove from oven and set aside.
Make the Crust
- Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Lightly oil tart pan and set aside.
- Place pine nuts, oats, half of the spelt flour, baking powder and salt in a food processor. Blend for about 30 seconds or until the oats are ground.
- Transfer to a medium bowl and stir in remaining spelt flour. Drizzle in olive oil and mix until all flour is moistened.
- Add almond milk and squeeze pastry together with clean hands. It should be moist and hold together, but not stick to your fingers. If it seems crumbly or dry, add a splash more of almond milk.
- Press pastry evenly into prepared tart pan. Use your thumbs to press into the fluted sides of tart pan, making sure corners are not too thick.
- Prick bottom of crust with a fork several times and bake for 12 minutes or until pastry is just set, but not cooked through.
- Remove from oven and set aside.
Make the Filling
- Warm 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
- Add onion, and sauté for 5 minutes or until golden. Add garlic, and continue cooking for another 3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Crumble tofu into food processor. Add lemon juice, salt, a pinch of black pepper, remaining ¼ cup olive oil and half of the onion-garlic mixture. Blend until combined, scraping the sides as necessary.
- Add dill and pulse until incorporated. Transfer to a medium bowl and stir in the remaining onion-garlic mixture.
- Spread evenly in tart crust. Arrange roasted tomatoes on top of filling.
- Place tart on a baking sheet and bake for 45 minutes or until filling is set in the center and crust is golden around edges.
- Remove from oven and allow tart to cool for 15 minutes before carefully removing from pan. Serve warm or at room temperature.
