Maple Filo Parcels

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 180\u00b0C (350\u00b0F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

   Tip: Use a sharp knife to cut the walnuts into small pieces.

2. 2

   In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.

   Tip: Make sure to handle the butter and sugar mixture gently to prevent it from becoming too stiff.

3. 3

   Add the cold butter to the dry ingredients and use a pastry blender or your fingers to work the butter into the mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.

   Tip: Make sure the butter is still cold when adding the sugar.

4. 4

   In a separate bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, sugar, eggs, milk, and vanilla extract until well combined.

   Tip: Use a high-quality pure maple syrup for the best flavor.

5. 5

   Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until a dough forms.

   Tip: Don't overmix the dough, or it will become tough.

6. 6

   Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

   Tip: Let the dough rest for at least 30 minutes to allow the butter to firm up.

7. 7

   Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat.

   Tip: Use a thermometer to ensure the oil is at the right temperature.

8. 8

   Roll out the dough to a thickness of about 3 mm (1/8 inch). Cut into desired shapes using a cookie cutter or a knife.

   Tip: Make sure the dough is not too thin, or it will tear when rolling it out.

9. 9

   Brush the dough with a little bit of coconut oil and sprinkle with chopped walnuts.

   Tip: Use a gentle touch when handling the dough to prevent it from tearing.

10. 10

    Place a spoonful of the maple filling in the center of each dough triangle.

    Tip: Make sure the filling is not too close to the edges, or it will spill over when rolling the dough.

11. 11

    Roll the dough into a triangle and press the edges together to seal the parcel.

    Tip: Use a little bit of water to help the dough stick together.

12. 12

    Place the parcels on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 1 cm (1/2 inch) of space between each parcel.

    Tip: Use a sharp knife to cut the edges of the parchment paper to fit the parcels perfectly.

13. 13

    Drizzle the tops with a little bit of maple syrup and sprinkle with chopped walnuts.

    Tip: Use a spatula to spread the syrup evenly.
