Directions
Combine all pastry ingredients in a food processor and pulse to combine well. Divide dough into two balls, and wrap each tightly in plastic wrap. Place in fridge to chill for at least 1 hour
Meanwhile, place berries, paleo honey, and hot water in a small saucepan over medium high heat and bring to a low boil. Reduce heat to medium
Using a wooden spoon smash down the berry mixture as it reduces into a jammy consistency and thickens- about 10 min
Place berry filling in a glass container and chill.
Preheat oven to 350F. Prepare a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
Once dough is chilled. place it on parchment paper and top with another parchment sheet, rolling out until about ¼ in thick. Using a circular cookie cutter or drinking glass, create ~4 inch circles of dough, trimming excess. Chill dough circles another 15 min until firm enough to handle
Carefully spoon a heaping tablespoon into the center of each circle, being careful not to overfill. Place another dough circle on top. Use a fork to crimp the sides of the pastry, and make a small slit on the top to vent
Bake pastries at 350F for about 22 min or until brown and cooked through.
