Recipe by Robert Landolphi Potato starch and rice flour make a delightfully tender and flaky, yet chewy, puff pastry. Filled with dollops of creamy whipped filling and topped with powdered sugar, they are a wonderful treat for a shower or party.
2.6 ounces white rice flour (about 1/2 cup)
1.3 ounces potato starch (about 1/4 cup)
1.05 ounces tapioca flour (about 1/4 cup)
1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 cup water
3 tablespoons butter
3 large eggs
3/4 cup frozen reduced-calorie whipped topping, thawed
1 tablespoon powdered sugar
Fresh raspberries (optional)
Preheat oven to 400 °.
Weigh or lightly spoon white rice flour, potato starch, and tapioca flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Combine white rice flour, potato starch, tapioca flour, xanthan gum, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl, stirring with a whisk.
Combine 1 cup water and butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat; bring to a boil. Add flour mixture, stirring well with a wooden spoon until mixture is smooth and pulls away from sides of pan. Remove from heat; place dough in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment; beat at medium-high speed 1 minute. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Scrape dough off sides of bowl using a rubber spatula; beat 1 minute or until dough is smooth (dough will be sticky).
Spoon 2 tablespoonfuls dough 2 inches apart onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake at 400 ° for 15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350 °. Bake an additional 18 minutes or until tops are golden brown and puffs sound hollow when tapped. Remove from oven; cool completely on pan.
Cut top one-third of each puff horizontally using a serrated knife. Top bottom half of each puff 1 tablespoon whipped topping. Replace top half of each puff. Sprinkle with powdered sugar. Serve with fresh raspberries, if desired.
