Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Whole wheat flour
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup Greek yogurt
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 cup Whole milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Raisins
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 Egg
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, salt, and baking powder.
Cut the unsalted butter into small cubes and add to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the flour until it resembles coarse crumbs.
In a separate bowl, mix Greek yogurt, vanilla extract, and whole milk until smooth. Add this to the flour mixture and stir until a dough forms.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough into a large rectangle, about 1/4-inch thick.
Spread the raisins evenly over the dough and sprinkle with ground cinnamon.
Roll the dough tightly from the long side to form a log. Slice the log into 8 equal pieces.
Place each piece, cut side up, on the prepared baking sheet.
In a small bowl, beat the egg with a teaspoon of water to create an egg wash. Brush each pastry with the egg wash to encourage a golden finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastries are golden and flaky.
Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your sugar-free treat!
