Directions

Step 1
Place flour and salt in food processor. Pulse for a few seconds. Add oil and water. Pulse for a few seconds until dough starts to form. Remove mixture from food processor and shape into a ball. Let dough rest and prepare filling.
Step 2
Place vegetable stock, millet and lentils in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Cover and simmer over low heat for about 15 minutes or until lentils are tender. Set aside.
Step 3
Meanwhile, chop mushrooms in food processor. Set aside.
Step 4
In a skillet, sauté onions, garlic and mushrooms in oil over high heat for about 5 minutes or until soft. Season with salt and pepper.
Step 5
Remove from heat and add Dijon mustard, tamari, cinnamon, nutmeg and clove. Add the millet and lentil mixture, mix well and set aside.
Step 6
Place the rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 180 °C (350 °F).
Step 7
Divide dough in two and roll out each ball between two sheets of parchment paper.
Step 8
Place one rolled-out layer of dough in a 23-cm (9-in.) pie plate.
Step 9
Add filling and cover with the second rolled-out layer of dough. Seal edges with your fingers or a fork. Trim excess with a paring knife. Make a few incisions on the top.
Step 10
Bake for about 50-60 minutes or until crust is golden brown.
