Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour
- 3/4 cup coconut flour
- 3/4 cup tapioca flour
- 2 tbsp. monk fruit sweetener
- 1 tsp. sea salt
- 1 cup + 6 tbsp. cold butter, cut into cubes
- 1 egg
Filling: Jam of your choice! I used:
- 1/4 cup of my SCD Strawberry Syrup
- 1/2 cup Refined-Sugar-Free Apricot Jam
Instructions
- Combine the almond flour, coconut flour, tapioca flour, monk fruit, sea salt, and cubes of butter into a blender or food processor. Pulse on high for a few seconds, just until a thick dough forms.
- Add the egg and pulse for another few seconds.
- Transfer the dough into a large bowl and divide in half. Shape each half into a large disc, wrap, and place in the freezer to chill for 30 minutes.
- Mix the strawberry syrup with the apricot jam to make the filling. Set aside.
- Preheat the oven to 350F and sprinkle a dash of tapioca flour over a clean, flat surface. Unwrap one of the chilled discs of dough. Roll it into a large rectangle until it’s about 1/8″ thick, using extra tapioca flour as needed to prevent the dough from sticking. Slice the large rectangle into 8 pieces.
- Repeat Step 5 with the other half of the chilled dough.
- Place about 2 tbsp. of the jam filling into the center of each of the first 8 pieces. Place the other 8 pieces over top of the first 8 with the jam filling in between. Use a fork to pinch the two sides together.
- Carefully transfer the pastries to a lightly greased baking sheet. Poke the center of each with a fork before baking to allow steam to escape.
- Bake for 20 minutes, until golden-brown & enjoy warm!
- (Optional) decorate with a drizzle of strawberry syrup, melted coconut butter, and hemp hearts.
Notes
These pastries freeze well in an air-tight container! They re-heat best in a toaster, air fryer, or oven.
Any jam you have on hand will work as the “filling”.
