Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 0.25 cup Coconut flour
- 0.33 cup Unsalted butter (cold and cubed)
- 2 tablespoons Sugar-free powdered sweetener (e.g., erythritol or allulose)
- 1 large Egg
- 0.33 cup Greek yogurt (plain, unsweetened)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Strawberries (fresh, sliced)
- n/a Stevia or monk fruit drops (optional, to taste)
- 1 serving Egg wash (1 egg beaten with 1 tablespoon water)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, and sugar-free powdered sweetener. Use a fork or pastry cutter to mix in the cold cubed butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Add the egg and mix until the dough comes together. If the dough is too crumbly, add 1 teaspoon of water at a time until it holds together.
Roll the dough between two sheets of parchment paper to about 1/4 inch thickness. Use a round cookie cutter (about 3-4 inches in diameter) to cut out pastry circles. Re-roll the scraps as needed.
Carefully place the pastry circles onto the prepared baking sheet. Brush the edges lightly with the egg wash.
In a small bowl, mix the Greek yogurt with vanilla extract and 1-2 drops of stevia or monk fruit drops (if desired for extra sweetness).
Spoon about 1 teaspoon of the yogurt mixture into the center of each pastry circle, leaving a small border around the edges.
Top the yogurt filling with 2-3 slices of fresh strawberries.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges of the pastries are golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let cool completely on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy your sugar-free strawberry cream pastry!
