Ingredients

• 1 sheet Gluten-free puff pastry
• 8 oz Cream cheese
• 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 large Egg
• 1 cup Raspberries
• 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
• 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
• 1 tablespoon Milk

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract. Beat until smooth and creamy, set aside.

Step 3

Roll out the gluten-free puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface to smooth any creases.

Step 4

Cut the pastry sheet into 6 equal rectangles.

Step 5

Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the cream cheese mixture onto the center of each rectangle.

Step 6

Place a handful of raspberries on top of the cream cheese filling.

Step 7

Fold the edges of the pastry rectangles partially over the filling, pinching the corners together to form a border.

Step 8

In a small bowl, beat the egg and brush it over the pastry edges.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the pastries are golden brown and the filling is set.

Step 10

Remove the danishes from the oven and allow them to cool for about 10 minutes on a wire rack.

Step 11

In a small bowl, mix powdered sugar with milk to make a glaze. Drizzle this over the cooled danishes.

Step 12

Garnish the danishes with lemon zest before serving.
