Sugar-free Gluten-free Raspberry Pastry

Sugar-free Gluten-free Raspberry Pastry

As a Lake Tahoe Realtor I use any and all sales methods available to me to sell your Lake Tahoe real estate, and one very famous technique that says “this is a home”/”buy this Lake Tahoe home for sale” is baking!

Since I have been on a sugar-free, gluten-free diet, my baking has actually increased, but this certainly isn’t something you can bake at other people’s houses, as, delicious as it is, it may be too messy for that Luxury Lake Tahoe home for sale!

This may work well as a Holiday breakfast idea for the entire family, or a dessert, as it has a red raspberry filling, and you can make a lot of it easily.

Disclaimer: This isn’t completely sugar-free, as it has raspberries, and I used dates to sweeten, but the glycemic index has got to be very low, as there is a minimal amount of fruit. If you are on a strict diet, use Stevia to sweeten instead of dates.

Sugar-free Gluten Free Raspberry Pastry Ingredients (serves 4):

Pastry:

1 cup Quinoa Flour

1 cup Brown Rice Flour

1 tsp Baking Soda

1 tsp Baking Powder

1 stick or Organic Butter

3 dates

1 cup Coconut Milk (adjust for consistency)

1/2 vanilla bean or a splash of vanilla extract

1 Egg (pasture-raised preferred)

Mix dry ingredients. Cook coconut milk and chopped up dates and vanilla until dates are soft and the milk turns brownish from dates about 5 min. Add egg, milk mixture and melted butter, and mix with dry ingredients. You should get a dough-like texture, i.e. firm.

Filling:

1/2 cup Raspberries (I used frozen)

1/4 cup Chia Seed

little water to cover the raspberries

1 tsp Stevia (or dates if you prefer)

Cook all ingredients for about 5 min.

Roll dough between your hands to make a ball, then flatten into a round. Grease baking sheet, and lay the rounds. Fill with raspberry filling (little in the middle). Make equal amount of rounds to cover the filling, and press the ends together.

Cook on 385 for about 10-15 min.

Enjoy!
