Raspberry Cashew Cream Cheese Pinwheels With Coconut Oil Crust
- Coconut oil crust
- 2 cups unbleached all purpose flour + more as needed
- 1/3 cup unrefined coconut oil, chilled enough to be solid
- 1/2 cup chilled water
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- Raspberry Filling
- 1/2 cup raw cashews, soaked for 2 hours and drained
- 1/4 cup fresh raspberries (frozen will work, too)
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon melted coconut oil
- 2 tablespoons agave or maple syrup
- handful of additional raspberries (garnish)
- 1-2 tablespoons extra melted coconut oil (garnish)
- 1 tablespoon unrefined sugar (garnish)
- to make the crust:rnrnCombine flour and cononut oil in the bowl of a food processor. rnPulse until coarse crumbs form, about 30 seconds.rnGradually add water until dough begins to come together, rnit will still be crumb-y but should hold together when you try to form a ball. rnIf it is too dry add water, a teaspoon at a time.rnTurn dough out onto a piece of parchment and use your hands to form it into a ball.rnSet aside.
- to make the filling:rnrnWipe out the food processor and add drained cashews, raspberries, rnlemon juice, sweetener, coconut oil and sea salt.rnProcess until well combined and smooth, about 2-3 minutes, rnstopping to scrape down the sides as needed.
- assembling the pastry:rnPreheat oven to 350 degrees.rnPlace your pastry dough on a lightly floured work surface and use a rolling pinrnto flatten it into a rectangle about 1/4" thick.rnUse your hands to straighten out any rough edges.
- Cut rolled out dough into 12 equal sized squares.rnMake four slices in each square, starting from each corner rnand stopping 1/2" from the center.
- Place a small scoop of filling, about 1Tbsp in the center of each piece of cut pastry.rnFold every other cut corner in towards the center and press down gently to seal.
- Brush each folded pastry with additional melted coconut oil, dust with cane sugar, rnand garnish with a fresh raspberry or two.
- Bake for 18-24 minutes, until pastry is ever so slightly browned.rnAllow to cool and store any extras in the refrigerator for up to a week.
