Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 sheets Dairy-free puff pastry sheets
- 1 can Full-fat canned coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 3 tablespoons Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Sea salt
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons Water
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dairy-free puff pastry sheets until they are about 1/8-inch thick.
Cut the puff pastry into 8 equal rectangles and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake the pastry rectangles in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until they are golden and puffed up. Allow them to cool completely.
While the pastry is baking, prepare the dairy-free cream filling. In a saucepan, whisk together the coconut milk, cornstarch, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and sea salt.
Place the saucepan over medium heat, constantly whisking, until the mixture thickens and starts to bubble. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
Once thickened, remove the cream filling from the heat and let it cool to room temperature.
Once the puff pastries are cool, gently slice each one in half horizontally with a sharp knife.
Spoon the cooled cream filling onto the bottom halves of each pastry, then top with the other halves, gently pressing down.
Optional: Dust with powdered sugar before serving.
Serve immediately for the best taste and texture. Enjoy your dairy-free cream-filled puff pastries!
