I want to make filo dough that does not rip when I make it. Will this work?

Filo dough is extremely thin and designed to be flakey when baked. We have not tried making it ourselves but purchase it ready-made. We use Bob's Red Mill ALL the time for a variety of cooking needs; make vegan seitan and more. Excellent product. Why not try it and let us know!

Don't roll out the dough, just pinch off enough to fill each cavity and press down. I make an organic dough from trial and error....works great and the treat portions are perfect.

Yes. I have used it for small batches. I do use the cookies scrappers that I ordered along with the cookie paddles. That helps keep the dough moving.

Hi Linda, i live in Perú and i only prepare cookies, the dough has to be very soft, enough to let it go out through the small slots of the disks. If its too dry its not easy and dough will not go out. Hope it will help you

I suggest you go see the manufacturer's site to see videos of how it works and also on Youtube by searching "ActiFry". I had a look on how puri is made and I think it will not work in this machine because this machine stirs constantly. It could also get stuck as the dough is very soft material.

I have never tried it, but I don't believe the dough will stick. Here's why...I made a dough to bake rugelach and the pastries baked great on this. I don't think you'll find anything to stick on this....really! I cannot brag enough about this wonderful little baking pad. Definitely worth the purchase!

The machine itself won't do it. You'd have to roll the dough then make very thin slices and then unroll each slice. For spaghetti and angle hair type pastas you really need an extruder type pasta maker. I had one and it's nice but a lot of additional work and cleanup.

Yes! It has a very strong motor. Use the dough hook rather than the roller for really stiff doughs.

The dough has to be kept moist. I used the recipe in the book till I got the "feel" of it then kept a damp towel around it to keep it moist. It took a couple of tries but finally got it. Too much kneading will make it hard too. Good luck, it's an awesome attachment.

I have not used GF dough in this particular pan, but I have in other types that require sizing the dough into a small area. I think it would work for you especially if you press it in instead of rolling and cutting. The removable bottom is an added plus for finicky doughs.

Hi! I'm sure that it would work for that - however - the dough might stick and you might spend a lot of time picking it off the masher...

I've never rolled out dough on it, but if you have sticky dough it might work alot less effectively than a flour-sprinkled wooden surface.

I'm sure it could. I put the dough between plastic wrap to press . The only thing is, the press does not flatten the dough all the way. It needed more leverage. I still had to roll out the dough by hand.

yeah, the answers listed below are correct. i used it to make gluten free pizza dough. :)

Sorry, couldn't figure out how to expound on my 'yes' answer. I have used it to make tortillas and flatbreads, so if you are going for a thin crust pizza it should work...not sure how thick you could make it though. Hope that helps!

The only thing I make is cheese straws and the motor is not strong enough to push dough thru. Therefore I have never been able to use it. Sorry�...
