- In your food processor cream the butter, sugar and vanilla until smooth and well combined.
- Gradually add in the dry ingredients and lemon zest until the mixture resembles bread crumbs.
- Add in a tablespoon of water at a time - just enough to create a soft workable dough.
- Knead this dough with a bit of rice flour until workable.
- Wrap the ball of dough in some plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for about half an hour.
- To make the filling:.
- Place all ingredients in the food processor with the chopping blade and puree until smooth.
- Adjust spices and sweetener to taste and then allow to sit.

- To assemble:.
- Roll out the dough between two pieces of baking paper.

- Bake for another 5 minutes and then allow to cool.
