This disclosure is about making pastry without flour by combining sugar, a zero calories, zero glycemia, cellulosic dietary fiber gel called Z-Trim, water and mixing the three together to substitute for ordinary flour. It thus is formed into a batter that takes the place of a complex carbohydrate, or flour, which is a solid so cannot be a batter by itself. Any sugar can accomplish this but sucrose is the prime embodiment, however erythritol is a sugar alcohol of virtually zero calories, zero glycemia, so merits special attention. Protein powder including the isolates of soy and whey is also included but it is inferior to Z-Trim.
