If you haven’t climbed aboard the jackfruit train yet, my Easy Jackfruit Pies may just be the thing to encourage you to buy a first class ticket! This recipe uses the amazing Young Green Jackfruit Confit from Nature’s Charm and makes an amazing substitute for a classic meat pie. Feel free to make this recipe into a big ol’ pie too – just be sure to adjust the baking time to suit.

Ingredients

  • Spray oil
  • 4 sheets vegan puff pastry (or make your own!), defrosted
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 brown onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 small cans Nature’s Charm Young Green Jackfruit Confit, drained
  • 2 cups beef-style stock (vegetable will do!)
  • 2 tablespoons arrowroot
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 1 tablespoon Nature’s Charm Evaporated Coconut Milk

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C and grease a Texas muffin pan with spray oil.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a large frypan before adding the onion and garlic. Stir until the onion becomes translucent.
  3. Chop the pieces of Nature’s Charm Jackfruit Confit in quarters and add to the frypan, turning occasionally until evenly browned.
  4. Add the stock and bring to the boil, reducing to a simmer for 10 minutes.
  5. While the filling is simmering, cut 6 large squares out of the puff pastry (leaving enough behind to cover each pie).
  6. Gently press the pastry into the base of the Texas muffin tin, leaving enough overlapping to seal.
  7. Whisk together the arrowroot and water in a small bowl before stirring through the filling. Allow to simmer for 5 minutes while stirring to thicken.
  8. Evenly fill each of pies with the jackfruit filling and take a smaller square of pastry and sit on top.
  9. Fold the overlapping edges of the base pastry over the top, being sure to pinch the edges to seal.
  10. Brush each pie with Nature’s Charm Evaporated Coconut Milk and bake in the oven for 30 minutes, or until gold and crispy on top.
  11. Gently remove from the pan and serve immediately with your favourite veg!
