Ingredients
- 2 sheets frozen puff pastry
- 1 cup fresh or frozen raspberries
- 2/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch or corn flour
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup or other liquid sweetener
- 1/2 tablespoon dairy-free milk or water
Instructions
- Make the raspberry jam: In a saucepan, combine raspberries, sugar, cornstarch, and water. Mix until no lumps remain, then boil for 5 minutes while stirring. Reduce heat and cook for 2 more minutes. Chill.
- Preheat the oven: Set the oven temperature to 220 degrees C (430 degrees F) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Prepare the pastry: Defrost the puff pastry sheets, and roll them out if needed. Spread a thin layer of the chilled raspberry jam on each sheet.
- Shape the croissants: Cut each sheet into triangles and roll them up to form croissant shapes. Arrange them on the prepared baking sheets.
- Brush and bake: Mix the maple syrup with the dairy-free milk or water, and brush this mixture over the croissants. Bake for 20-25 minutes until they are golden brown.
- Serve: Dust with powdered sugar and enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container.
Notes
For the best results, ensure your pastry is sufficiently chilled before rolling and cutting to maintain its flaky texture.
