If you have been told that flaky, layered pastry is impossible without gluten, this collection will change your mind. Every recipe here is built with dough that delivers real, golden, crisp layers…from buttery gluten-free turnovers and gf cheese Danishes to Czech kolaches, gf pastries, and cream puffs. It all starts with the right foundation: my Gluten-Free Pastry Flour Blend, Gluten-Free Rough Puff Pastry (butter version), or Dairy-Free Rough Puff Pastry if you need a dairy-free option.
Read through whichever dough post applies to you before you start. I include step-by-step photos, technique guidance, and the mistakes I made so you do not have to repeat them. I have tested every recipe in this collection multiple times, and I will walk you through exactly what to expect.
