Prep Time 25 mins
Cook Time 20 mins
Rest Time 2 hrs
Total Time 2 hrs 45 mins
Cooking Temp: 200  C
Ingredients
  • 1 ½ cups gluten-free all-purpose flour (with xanthan gum)
  • 1 cup cold unsalted butter (2 sticks)
  • ½ cup ice water (add as needed)
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
Instructions
  1. 1
    In a large bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour and salt.
  2. 2
    Add the cold cubed butter and cut it into the flour using a pastry cutter or fork. You should have a crumbly texture with visible small chunks of butter.
  3. 3
    Stir in the lemon juice.
  4. 4
    Slowly drizzle in the ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing gently until a dough forms. Do not overmix.
  5. 5
    Form the dough into a disc, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
  6. 6
    Lightly flour your surface or use parchment paper. Roll the chilled dough into a rectangle.
  7. 7
    Fold the dough into thirds like a letter, rotate it, then repeat the rolling and folding process 3 to 4 times.
  8. 8
    Rewrap the dough and chill again for another hour.
  9. 9
    Use the puff pastry as needed for sweet or savory baby shower recipes. Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 18–20 minutes or until golden and flaky.
Note

Use parchment to avoid over-flouring the dough.

Keep everything cold to ensure flaky layers.

Dough can be frozen for up to 1 month.
