Ingredients

• 250 grams All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 150 grams Cold unsalted butter
• 60 milliliters Chilled water
• 4 tablespoons Sunflower seed butter
• 50 grams Toasted oats
• 3 tablespoons Maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
• 1 serving Egg wash (1 egg beaten with 1 tablespoon of water)

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt.

Step 2

Cut the cold unsalted butter into small cubes and add to the flour mixture.

Step 3

Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, blend the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse meal.

Step 4

Slowly drizzle in chilled water, mixing with a fork until the dough just holds together.

Step 5

Shape the dough into a disk, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Step 6

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 7

In a small bowl, mix sunflower seed butter, toasted oats, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and cinnamon to create the nut-free filling.

Step 8

Roll out the chilled dough on a floured surface to about 1/8-inch thick.

Step 9

Cut the rolled dough into circles using a 4-inch round cutter.

Step 10

Place a tablespoon of the nut-free filling in the center of each dough circle.

Step 11

Fold the circles in half to form semi-circles and seal the edges by pressing with a fork.

Step 12

Place the pastries on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Step 13

Brush the top of each pastry with the egg wash for a golden finish.

Step 14

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the pastries are golden brown.

Step 15

Cool on a wire rack before serving.
