    1. 1\u2154 cups unbleached white flour<\/li>\t\t\t\t
    2. 1 Cup icing sugar<\/li>\t\t\t\t
    3. 1\/2 Cup cold vegan butter flavoured margarine<\/li>\t\t\t\t
    4. Equivalent of 1 egg, plus 1 egg yolk<\/li>\t\t\t\t

      Instructions<\/div>\t\t\t
        \t\t\t\t
      1. Please note. While it is not absolutely necessary, it is ideal to prepare the ingredients for this cake the day before baking it, in order for the flavours to really absorb. If it's not possible for you to wait overnight to bake it, try to give at least a few hours for the 3 mixtures to rest before cooking.<\/li>\t\t\t<\/ol>\n\t\t<\/div>\t\t
        \t\t\t
        Pastry<\/div>\t\t\t
          \t\t\t\t
        1. Sift the flour and icing sugar into a mixing bowl.<\/li>\t\t\t\t
        2. Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs, add the egg\/egg yolk replacer and lemon zest, and knead just until the mixture comes together. Wrap in plastic wrap and put in the refrigerator to chill.<\/li>\t\t\t<\/ol>\n\t\t<\/div>\t\t
          \t\t\t
          Filling<\/div>\t\t\t
            \t\t\t\t
          1. Place the Grano Cotto, oat milk, margarine and lemon zest in a saucepan over medium heat.<\/li>\t\t\t\t
          2. Bring to a gentle boil and stir for 10 minutes or until it becomes thick like porridge.<\/li>\t\t\t\t
          3. Transfer to a large bowl, allow to cool, then refrigerate overnight, allowing the flavours to infuse.<\/li>\t\t\t\t
          4. In a separate bowl, using an electric mixer or a fork, beat the egg\/egg yolk replacer, vegan ricotta, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and orange blossom water. It should be creamy but liquidy, with no lumps. Leave this mixture overnight to rest.<\/li>\t\t\t\t
          5. Preheat oven to 390\u00baF\/200\u00baC.<\/li>\t\t\t\t
          6. Grease a round cake tin. Roll out two-thirds of the pastry and place in the tin. Cut off any overhang and add to the remaining pastry. Roll out the remaining pastry. With a pastry wheel or knife, cut long strips about 3\/4 inch wide.<\/li>\t\t\t\t
          7. Fold the cooled grain mixture, rested ricotta mixture and finely chopped candied citrus in a large bowl, then transfer to the cake pan and trim the pastry to the level of the mixture. Now add your lattice top. Press the lattice strips to the edge of the pastry very gently.<\/li>\t\t\t\t
          8. Bake for 50\u201360 minutes. Allow to cool completely (ideally, you would leave it to cool and rest overnight if possible, but not necessary)<\/li>\t\t\t\t
          9. Sift icing sugar over the top before serving.<\/li>\t\t\t<\/ol>\n\t\t<\/div>\t\t

            Notes<\/div>\t\t\t
              \t\t\t\t
            1. Traditionally, this Italian Easter cake is cooked no later than Good Friday to ensure the ingredients have enough time to infuse before Easter Sunday.<\/li>\t\t\t\t
            2. Grano Cotto (cooked wheat berries) is usually available in most Italian grocery stores. If you can\u2019t find wheat berries, pearl barley or arborio would be a good substitute.<\/li>\t\t\t\t
            3. I believe that some stores might sell vegan ricotta but I've never seen it so I just make it myself.<\/li>\t\t\t\t
