Equipment

  • 2 Muffin trays I used a Caraway muffin pan which is non-stick
  • 1 Mixing bowl
  • 1 Jar or round cookie cutter or knife to cut dough into circles

Ingredients

Puff Pastry

  • 2 Sheets Gluten & Dairy free puff pastry, Sweet Loren's brand is GF DF and available at Target

Cheesecake filling

  • 1 C Dairy free greek-style yogurt, I used Cocojune Plain or vanilla flavor
  • 2 tbsp Tapioca starch, arrowroot starch OR corn starch
  • 2 tbsp Maple syrup or honey
  • 1 Egg, beaten
  • 1 tsp Pure vanilla extract
  • 1 Pinch Salt

Toppings

  • 2-3 Peaches, use 3 if they're small Must be fresh
  • 1 C Strawberries, chopped Must be fresh

Optional toppings

  • Coconut whipped cream, cinnamon, mint leaf

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400F. Remove your puff pastry from the freezer and allow it to come up to room temp. Be sure to unwrap it completely so this step only takes 10-15 minutes. You can also refrigerate your dough the morning you want to serve these to make it even quicker
  • In a mixing bowl combine, yogurt, cornstarch, egg, maple syrup, vanilla and salt until completely smooth
  • Lay the two sheets of puff pastry over the first muffin tray leaving enough room for the dough to stretch and sink into the cups. You don't want it to be too tight. Use the bottom of the second tray to push the dough gently into the cups
  • Using a knife or jar cut circles around the muffin cup edges. Remove excess dough
  • Fill each muffin cup with about 1 tbsp of the cheesecake mixture.
  • Add about 1-2 tbsp of fruit to each muffin cup
  • Bake for 20-24 minutes until the edges of the puff pastry are lightly browned
  • Cool on a cooling rack or cutting board for 10 minutes before removing from pan
  • Optional: Once completely cooled top with coconut whipped cream, cinnamon, extra fruit etc **Note: they must be completely cooled not the slightest bit warm or the coconut cream will melt
