Am I able to use pre-made gluten free puff pastry dough in place of making the dough myself? Also is it possible to substitute the golden erythritol and Powdered erythritol for brown sugar and regular sugar as I cannot get these ingredients at the moment and we do not need to be keto friendly just gluten free over here.

would it still be okay to eat if I made the tree and then froze it to bake it the day after?

I attempted this lovely pull apart Christmas tree. Mine was not as beautiful in its presentation as the one pictured. I made it on Christmas Eve day for Christmas morning. I forgot to do the egg wash prior to putting it into the oven on Christmas morning ,so mine didn’t brown as it was suppose to. I probably did cook it too long (18 minutes) because the branches were drier than the trunk. I will also add the maximum golden erythritol as I preferred it just a little sweeter. I did find the directions a bit confusing; I brushed melted butter on both sides of each triangular piece , and I only put cinnamon of the bottom piece. I would put the icing in a bag to regulate the flow of it better. I covered the remaining tree, and liked it better on the next day because the dough was a little softer. I definitely found weighing things by the gram more labor intensive. Overall I would try it again making the adjustments mentioned.

This is a game changer. The dough reminded me of traditional Russian pastries, and I will be using it to create them (or maybe one of the doughs with yeast so it will rise!) My family who aren’t keto said it tasted incredible. Thank you so much!

In reply to Nancy. I am having difficulty changing from metric to US measurements. I have hit the link but still have metric measures for many ingredients. I hate to convert each one manually. Can you help? Marie

This was really delicious and the texture is great. The only thing I have to change is the amount of xanthan gum. Maybe the concentration is different between countries? I reduced it to 2.5 tsp and I could still feel it in the finished product. Otherwise, really great, especially the second day. Thank you so much for the great recipe!

I still cannot click on US measurements and get it to print. It goes back to metrics

THANK YOU for posting this – THIS is what I want to make this weekend. I have been craving something cinnamony and sweet – remembering a childhood of cinnamon rolls and the like. I was just not inspired – but (once again) your recipes and instructions have me rushing into the kitchen. I am so glad you are on the allulose bandwagon as I find it the “best” sub except when I need something to crisp up – like a cookie. Love your site and your cookbooks.

Hi Paola. What is the recipe using the pork scratching ? I finally found some that don’t have msg or hydrolysed vegetable protein . But I can’t remember what your recipe was.
