Preparation Steps
1
Sift the whole wheat flour into a large bowl, add a pinch of salt, and make a well in the center. Crack in the eggs and gradually mix the dough. Add a little water as needed to make it pliable.
2
Knead the dough for at least 10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Wrap in plastic wrap and let it rest for 30 minutes.
3
For the filling, mix the chia seeds with almond milk, coconut cream, honey, vanilla extract, and grated lemon zest. Let it sit for 15-20 minutes to allow the chia seeds to swell and develop a jelly-like consistency.
4
Roll out the dough thinly, then evenly spoon small portions of the chia seed filling onto one half, spacing them apart.
5
Fold the other half of the dough over, then use a ravioli cutter or knife to cut out the ravioli. Press the edges firmly to prevent the filling from leaking during cooking.
6
Bring a large pot of water to a boil, and lightly salt it. Drop in the ravioli and cook for 3-4 minutes, until they float to the top.
7
Drain the ravioli, then melt the coconut oil in a skillet and gently toss the pasta in it, allowing it to caramelize lightly.
8
When serving, drizzle with a little honey and sprinkle with grated lemon zest. Serve warm!
