4. Make a slurry with the flour and non-dairy milk. Stir in the cooked mixture. Bring to a boil for 3-5
minutes.

6. While the mixture is cooking, make the crust. Put the flour, salt, and shortening into a bowl of a food
processor. Pulse a few times to mix. Add water 1 Tablespoon at a time and pulse until the mixture
forms a ball. Pulse a couple more times to make sure the mixture is blended well. DO NOT OVER MIX.
