Ingredients:
- 1 cup almond flour or other oilseed
- ½ cup gluten-free oat flour (I used the Vitalin)
- 1 tablespoon of chickpea flour
- 1 tablespoon of olive oil
- 50 ml of water (may vary depending on your cup size, watch the texture in the video)
- 2 pinches of salt
Filling:
- 1 shredded chicken breast
- 3 tablespoons of corn
- Parsley and seasonings to taste (I used hot paprika, oil and salt)
Method of preparation:
- Place all the dough ingredients in a bowl., except the water
- Mix everything with a spoon
- Add a little more than half of the water and stir with a spoon.
- When you start to form pieces of the dough like a farofa, will be almost to the point
- Add the rest of the water
- When it gets hard to move, mix with hands
- Gather the dough in the shape of a ball and knead well until it is completely homogeneous.
- Wrap the dough in a halved freezer bag or cling film.
- Leave in the fridge for 30 a 40 minutes
- after that time, remove from fridge and unroll from plastic
- open the dough, with the help of a roller, in the middle of two freezer bags (watch the video if you have questions about this step)
- With the aid of a pot or cutter or lid, mold the dough to the size you want
- Put the stuffing and close the dough gently
- with your fingertips, close the edges of the pastel by pressing slowly. If you have any cracked spots, press with your fingers
Optional: Brush on pure black coffee to help color and stick the sesame seeds (or other seed of your choice)
Healthy gluten-free pastry tips, without milk, egg and soy free
○ Do not increase the amount of chickpea flour as it is a bitter flour
♦ Do not replace any of the flours with flaxseed flour as this is also bitter
○ Be careful with the oven or air fryer time because it is ready very quickly, in the tests I burned several pastries ☺
