Dough:
- 1/4 cup Singoda (water chestnut) flour

- 1 Tbsp vegetable oil
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- Splash of ReaLemon Juice
- 3 Tbsp water
- Zero-calorie cooking spray
Directions
Filling:
- Place raspberries in a saucepan on medium heat. Stir occasionally so they do not burn.
- When the raspberries have dissolved and are at a soft boil (around 10 mins), add sweetener.
- Continue stirring and bring to a boil.
- Cook another 5-10 mins allowing mixture to thicken.
- Add lemon juice and stir.
- Cook for another 1-2 mins.
- Set aside and allow to cool. Mixture will thicken when cool.
Dough:
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or spray with cooking spray.
- Combine dry ingredients in a bowl.
- Add wet ingredients.
- Slowly and gently combine ingredients well until you have a pasty dough.
- With wet hands, roll dough into a ball.
Cookie Assembly:
- With wet hands, spread dough in a very thin layer between 1/8”-1/4” thick.
- Using a round cookie cutter or glass, cut dough into circles approximately 3” wide.
- Roll remaining dough back into a ball, spread out again and make more circles until you’ve used up all dough. You can shape the last one by hand.
- Spoon a teaspoon of raspberry filling into the center of each circle.
- Pinch the dough at the top of the circle.
- Lift up the bottom of the circle pinching two more corners forming a triangle.
- Place on baking sheet.
- Bake for approximately 15 mins until the dough has browned.
- Remove from the oven and cool.
- Enjoy!
