Time 2h

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 cups gluten free flour blend (* see note)
1/4 cup tapioca starch
1/8 teaspoon salt
10 tablespoons butter
2 teaspoons yeast
1 teaspoon sugar (For the yeast)
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup warm milk ((*feel free to use non-dairy milk))
3 eggs ((*note, one is for the egg wash and two for the dough))
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 cup powdered sugar
For Filling:
8 ounces cream cheese (room temperature)
1 egg yolk
1 tablespoon sugar
extra flour for when the dough gets sticky

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, add the yeast, one teaspoon sugar, and warm milk. Allow sitting for 10 minutes to let it get frothy.
  • In a large bowl, add the dry ingredients and whisk to blend.
  • In a medium-sized bowl, add all of the wet ingredients. Pour in the frothy yeast mixture and whisk to blend.
  • Pour the wet ingredients, including 4 of the tablespoons of butter melted, into the dry ingredients and mix.
  • Place plastic wrap onto a cutting board. Sprinkle with flour.
  • Put the dough to the cutting board. Sprinkle the top of the dough with more flour. Use a rolling pin or your hands to press it flat to 3/4 inch thick. Use as much flour as needed to prevent it from being sticky. At any time you can refrigerate the dough to help.
  • Add chunks of butter and then fold the dough onto itself. Roll flat again.
  • Add more butter chunks and roll again. You will keep repeating this process so that you have lots of butter layers. This is what makes your pastry dough flaky. It is a bit time consuming but it is worth it!
  • Repeat this process until you use all of the butter. Again, you will want to refrigerate the dough a bit between each butter layer. Cold butter works a lot better in making flaky layers.
  • Make the cream cheese layer by adding room temperature cream cheese, the egg yolk, and sugar to a mixer and whip until creamy.
  • Roll your dough to 1/2 to 3/4 inch thickness. Use a cookie cutter to cut out circles, or another shape.
  • Place the danish dough rounds in a warm place to rise for 45 minutes.
  • Use your fingers to press down the dough in the center of the circle. Add one spoon full of the cream cheese mixture and jam to each center.
  • Preheat the oven to 350º F.
  • Beat an egg in a small bowl. Use a brush to spread the egg onto the exposed dough of each pastry.
  • Bake for 18-20 minutes until done. Allow cooling.
  • Make the icing with the powdered sugar and lemon juice to a bowl. Feel free to add more lemon juice to get the right consistency. Drizzle onto each Danish.

GLUTEN FREE DANISH

My husband says these are the closest thing to 'real' Danish he has had since going gluten-free five years ago. We like raspberry jam, but you could also try pie filling in the middles.

Time 45m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups gluten-free pancake mix
¼ cup butter, room temperature
2 tablespoons white sugar
⅔ cup milk
½ teaspoon almond extract
¼ cup raspberry jam
⅔ cup confectioners' sugar

  • Combine the pancake mix, butter, and sugar; mix until crumbly. Stir in 2/3 cup milk and 1/2 teaspoon almond extract and mix until fully incorporated. The dough will be sticky.

  • Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, 10 to 12 minutes. Allow the pastries to cool.
  • Combine the confectioners' sugar, 3 tablespoons of milk, vanilla extract, and 1/4 teaspoon almond extract and mix until smooth. Drizzle the glaze over the Danish.

GLUTEN FREE DANISH



Gluten Free Danish image

WOW! I just made these delicious danish's. Not only were they fabulous, but they were really quick and easy to make!! Although they don't have a flaky pastry taste like the gluten containing danish's, they have their own little marvalous taste.You won't be able to eat just one! You can make these with your favourite jam. I used a tablespoon of raspberry jam on each danish and drizzled some icing on top.

Tips:

  • Use almond flour and tapioca flour: These gluten-free flours create a light and fluffy dough that is similar to traditional Danish pastry.
  • Chill the dough before rolling: This will help to prevent the dough from sticking to your hands and make it easier to work with.
  • Roll the dough out thinly: The thinner the dough, the crispier the Danish will be.
  • Use a variety of fillings: Get creative with your fillings! Try jams, fruits, nuts, or chocolate.
  • Bake the Danish until golden brown: Keep an eye on the Danish while it is baking to make sure that it does not overcook.

Conclusion:

Gluten-free Danish is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that can be enjoyed by people with and without gluten sensitivities. With a little planning and effort, you can create a gluten-free Danish that is just as good as the traditional version.
