A low fat version of the basic pastry for dessert tarts. Need plastic wrap and refrigeration! From The French Culinary Institute. Ingredients:
1 cup all-purpose flour |
2 teaspoons sugar |
1/2 teaspoon baking powder |
1 pinch salt |
1/4 cup low fat cottage cheese (1%) |
1 tablespoon canola oil |
2 tablespoons water |
Directions:
1. Place flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a food processor fitted with plastic blade.
2. Pulse briefly to combine, then with motor running, add cottage cheese and oil.
3. Quickly add water and pulse quickly just to combine. The dough will be crumbly but moist.
