Bear claws

Generously-sized bear claws filled with sweet almond paste can brighten even the darkest of days, which makes them as effective as vitamin D as far as I'm concerned. If you're looking for your next Fall baking pick-me-up, this pastry dough is easy to handle and yields flaky, tender results.

Almond Bear Claws are a flaky, buttery pastry that are filled with a sweet almond paste for a delicious breakfast treat or afternoon snack. We love them with a sweet glaze on top of the pastry for an extra layer of flavor and sweetness. If you're a fan of almond croissants or Danish pastries, then you're going to love this recipe that shows how to make almond bear claws at home.

With the slits cut on top, these Almond Bear Claw pastries resemble a bear's claw. And you'll need a bear-sized appetite to wolf down these treats because they're made with our signature "OOH IT'S SO GOOD!!®"

This almond bear claw pastry is the perfect sweet treat to pair with a cup of coffee!

This recipe is adapted from The Great Scandinavian Baking Book. I suggest making this over the course of two days. The dough can be made the first day and refrigerated overnight. The dough can be rolled, filled and baked on the second day. The quick danish pastry dough can be used to make a variety of pastries including buns, braids, bear claws and kringles.
