Quick Puff Pastry With Almond Flour. Is It Possible?

I've used Delia's Quick Flaky Pastry in the past and found it great. I'm now trying a LCHF diet and was wondering could I subsitute Almond Flour for the plain flour and keep other ingredients the same
RECIPE
75g block butter or block margarine
110g plain flour
a pinch of salt
little cold water

Hello Kevin,

We haven’t tried it but I don’t think flaky pastry will work but I think your will be able to make something with a pie crust or cookies using almond flour.

Best wishes
