Ingredients
Method
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Take the puff pastry sheets and cut each one into 4 equal strips lengthwise.
- Place a spoonful of your chosen filling on one end of each strip of pastry.
- Fold the other end of the pastry over the filling to create a tongue-like shape, pressing the edges to seal.
- Place the pastries on the lined baking sheet and brush the tops with beaten egg.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the pastries are golden brown and puffed up.
- Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. If using sweet fillings, you can dust the pastries with powdered sugar before serving.
