Ingredients for Sweet Gluten Free Pastry Recipe Recipe
3oz Sunflower margarine
1oz Fine cornmeal flour (fine polenta)
1oz Light brown muscovado sugar
4oz Rice flour
1/2 tsp Vanilla extract
1/2 tsp Xanthan gum
1/2 Tbsp Rapseseed oil or vegetable oil
1/2 tsp Baking powder
2 heaped tsp Cornflour (corn starch)
3oz ground almonds


How to make Gluten Free Sweet Pastry

Place all ingredients except sugar and butter into a mixer and mix well.

Add sugar and margarine and blend into a crumbly texture, you can do this by rubbing the mixture together using your fingers tips alternatively.

Add very tiny amounts of water and pulsate the blender little by little until it all clumps together.

Do not pour water in or use large amounts of water or it will turn into a cake batter not a pastry dough.



Roll pastry into a dough ball and cover with plastic wrap and place into the fridge for 30 minutes-2 hours.



Roll out and use for biscuits cookies and pastry.

Because only a small amount of xanthan gum is used in this recipe it may be necessary to use your finger tips to help with the rolling out process.
