Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour
- 1 cup tapioca flour
- 2 tablespoons coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 cup coconut oil, melted
- 0.25 cup honey
- 2 whole large eggs
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup raisins
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon water
- 0.5 cup coconut cream
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, tapioca flour, coconut flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and sea salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted coconut oil, honey, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms.
Transfer the dough to the lined baking sheet and press it out into a rectangular shape about 1/4 inch thick.
In a small saucepan, combine the raisins, lemon juice, and water. Cook over medium heat until the raisins are softened and the liquid is absorbed, about 5 minutes.
Spread the raisin mixture evenly over the dough.
Gently fold in the edges of the dough to partially cover the raisin filing, creating a Danish-like shape.
Brush the dough with coconut cream for a glossy finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown.
Allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your delicious Paleo Raisin Danish!
