  • 0.3 cup butter room temperature
  • 0.7 cup powdered sugar 
  • cups pancake mix gluten-free
  • tablespoons milk as needed
  • 0.3 cup raspberry jam 
  • 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract 
  • tablespoons granulated sugar white

Equipment

  • baking paper
  • oven

Directions

  1. Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Combine the pancake mix, butter, and sugar; mix until crumbly. Stir in 2/3 cup milk and 1/2 teaspoon almond extract and mix until fully incorporated. The dough will be sticky.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, 10 to 12 minutes. Allow the pastries to cool.
  5. Combine the confectioners' sugar, 3 tablespoons of milk, vanilla extract, and 1/4 teaspoon almond extract and mix until smooth.
  6. Drizzle the glaze over the Danish.
