Why Gluten-Free Crescent Dough is a Game-Changer

[@bhallmark3390]

Kim, every time I go to the grocery store, I say to myself that I wish someone would invent gf crescent rolls. My dear, you’ve done it! I can’t believe it! I’m looking forward to trying these. Thank you for the many hours it takes you in developing all these wonderful items to share. Are you planning to write a cookbook? **hint hint** 😉

[@TigerLily444]

[@TigerLily444]

[@LetThemEatGlutenFreeCake]

Haha! Thank you so much! And I would love to write a cookbook one day, if I can ever figure out how to get a cookbook deal 🥰🥰🥰

[@LetThemEatGlutenFreeCake]

You are incredible! I love you guys ❤️❤️❤️

[@ilyzoe1089]

Thanks so much for showing the close up texture shot at the end! I’m def gonna try to make these because my baking skills aren’t ready for croissants yet 🤣❤️❤️❤️

I was freaking out when I did my first three folds and turns, because it was NOT coming together! I knew you wouldn’t let me down though so I kept going! Refrigerated for an hour and did the second set, and by the time those three folds and turns were done it was PERFECT! Like… I’m flabbergasted right now with how one second it was a shaggy sticky dough and then the very next roll out it was just soft and perfect and actually stretchy ish! Like it didn’t break when I folded it! I have it in the fridge now for its last two hour rest before I roll it out and it turn it into Halloween ghosts. My celiac husband and sons are going to be SO EXCITED! Thank you for another great recipe! I can only imagine all the trial and error that you go through but you are blessing lives in a huge way! ❤

[@LetThemEatGlutenFreeCake]

Awe, that is the sweetest thing to say! Thank you so much 🥰🥰🥰

[@saghair88]

I really appreciate your effort. I’m new to gluten diet and you’re saving me.

[@Colibri7392]

Muchísimas gracias, por la receta ❤️🌹

[@lynnbontrager2069]

I also have been waiting for this FOREVER!! Thank you so much! I cannot wait for veggie pizza and those rings you would make that are filled then baked?! WOW! This is made the same as you would a puff pastry with laminating the dough like you did but would you just use a different flour? 🤔

[@TigerLily444]

oh my gosh I can't believe you said veggie pizza...hahahaha it's my favorite thing that I've been missing...do you mean the cold kind with the shredded veggies that's like a cold app with ranch dip??? cuz THAT is what I've been craving like.mad!!! hahahaha

[@lynnbontrager2069]

@@TigerLily444 YES! I love that stuff. And just in time for summer.

[@rescuedredeemedtransformed]

Kim I make a lot of your recipes - You are amazing. Thank you!!

Traduci la tua ricatta in italiano con tutti gli ingredienti sei capace a parlare l'italiano grazie

[@alexc262]

I made this and started freaking out when it was SO wet. Like almost a soup. Then after refrigerating and starting to roll out, it was really disheartening and almost gave up. But then I kept throwing the gf flour on while rolling the dough out and wouldn't you know, the recipe came out great!! You just need to keep folding and rolling and it will come together. Shouldn't have doubted her. Just follow step by step exactly

[@treehugger1216]

I'm very thankful to receive such a wonderful gf recipe for "Butterhörnchen". You are an artist! Thank you for sharing!

[@LetThemEatGlutenFreeCake]

It DOES seem like it's not going to come together at first, doesn't it? I felt the same way when I first made it.

[@LetThemEatGlutenFreeCake]

Awe, thank you so much!!

[@Amandalovesdisney1]

I needed to see this comment! I just did the first rolls and folds and it’s now been in the fridge for about an hour, and I’m still just worried it’s not gonna come together like I hope! But I trust her! Glad to see another commenter who wasn’t sure about it at first! 🙌🏻

[@jamesbutler7251]

How about some crab Rangoon or egg rolls.

[@LetThemEatGlutenFreeCake]

They're both on my long list!

[@Cami_2023]

I love your posts❤

[@LetThemEatGlutenFreeCake]

Awe, thank you so much!!!

[@rescuedredeemedtransformed]

Can I pre-make dough - can I freeze rolled and make latter?

[@rescuedredeemedtransformed]

Never mind you answered my question in receipe notes ;0)

[@monicalizi7612]

Olá, aprecio suas receitas e também sou Celiaca. Somente um comentário que nos 3:48 minutos, o tradutor colocou que você usou farinha de trigo para abrir a massa. Sabemos que isso não é verdadeiro para um Celiaco, não é mesmo? Estou no Brasil, grande abraço.

[@YourMajesty143]

This is called a Rough Puff Pastry dough. The butter is added into the flour and allowed to remain chunky & cold, rather than added in closer to room temperature into already mixed dough where it is also rolled into each laminate. This chunky way is much easier for anyone who is new to puff pastry dough making.

[@LetThemEatGlutenFreeCake]

I have a rough puff pastry on my blog, but this one is a little different. It has yeast in it and eggs, so it's a crescent dough (like the one that comes in the can). It makes for a softer pastry instead of a crunchy one.

[@pictureslife265]

i would buy this dough in the store easily...

[@LetThemEatGlutenFreeCake]

Thanks so much! I hope to one day have that ability to offer it in stores 🥰

[@TigerLily444]

For REAL?!?!?? HOWWWWW. hahahaha ok so...I have been waiting for this forever and ever and ever. ..and just didn't think it was possible. so now....I'm gonna give you the biggest GF challenge you have ever had hahaha and I wouldn't even dare anyone else with this but you..?? you are the GFgoddess hahaha can you make a gluten free PHYLLO!!! ive tried frying up rice paper (like for spring rolls) and that works nice and crispy... but it's tricky to work with...and get soft quickly so you can do it!!!! I know it!!! you keep bringing the favorites that I think no one can recreate but you are.magical!!! hahahaha can't wait to do this crescent roll dough!!

[@ryans.8814]

Schar has a frozen puff pastry dough which is really good but I would also like phyllo. I want to make baklava

[@TigerLily444]

@@ryans.8814 I've made baklava recently with a variation on rice paper and it gave me at least the flavor and a crispy thin crackly texture!!! and I've seen schar's puff pastry! but when I went back to the store they didn't have it and I never saw it again! hahaha. how is it???

[@LetThemEatGlutenFreeCake]

I'm working on phyllo!!!! It's going very well, too, so I'm hoping to post it before too long 🥰

[@ryans.8814]

@@LetThemEatGlutenFreeCake excited to try it!

[@TigerLily444]

lady lady lady... Miss Kim...our GF goddess... I'm just chatting it up with everyone in th comment section about how amazing you are and I had to come back to make this an official comment so you see it...hahaha PLAN A GF GET-TOGETHER for us where we can book a weekend for a meet&greet meet&eat!!! lolol seriously!!! hahaha lets make it like early 2024 so everyone can plan and arrange....and then we will all buy your cookbook and bags of your flour and get to you sign our stuff and we will make you famous hahahahaha... I seriously love your recipes but more.than that I just love you! I was sad that.i couldn't find anything to MAKE that would taste yummy...and right before I went gluten free, I started making the most amazing Italian baguettes for about 8 months before.... boom!!! gluten free. I was so sad that I hadn't had a decent loaf of good Italian crusty bread and one day I'm complaining...and my friend from South Africa just happens upon your video and sends it to me...and that was the end! and he's not even GF!!!! so I don't know HOW he managed to find yours when there are a million "you won't believe this is gluten free" videos that seriously taste like crap! and yours is REAL!!!! everything you touch turns to heaven in my mouth hahahaha meet us! meet us! meet us! we all wanna hug you (and eat your food) 😂😂😂😂😂 make it happennnnnnn lol

[@LetThemEatGlutenFreeCake]

OH MY GOSH!!!! You are SOOOO sweet! I cannot thank you enough for such a wonderful comment. I had to read it to my husband because I was just so taken aback!! It pulls at my heart strings to hear from people like yourself who have tried my recipes and had such a reaction to them. Mainly because I understand what it's like to not have good bread and just good food in general, and it's so much more meaningful than if I were just a normal food blogger/KZbinr baking regular food. That part of the world just doesn't understand what it's like for us. So in a way, we're all like kindred spirits. If I ever get a chance to host an event where we all meet up, I would absolutely LOVE to do it!! And hopefully there will be a cookbook and bags of flour to boot, lol!! 😍🥰😍🥰

[@jacintajustice3851]

Have you tried freezing the dough already rolled up in the crescent roll shape? Wondering what the best way to thaw would be overnight in fridge and some minutes on the counter before baking to “puff up”? Curious if you or anyone has tried this already! I’m always looking for ways to make dinner less laborious after getting home from work!

[@LetThemEatGlutenFreeCake]

See notes section of recipe card for instructions on how to do this ☺

[@aliciamarie7951]

Can you use a non dairy milk?

[@LetThemEatGlutenFreeCake]

I haven't tried it yet, but it's worth a shot. It should work fine.

[@Kelly-ml5tl]

Can I replace the butter with applesauce?
