Ingredients
- 1 sheet puff pastry
- 2/3 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 4 egg yolks
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Ground cinnamon (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a muffin tin or use individual tart molds.
- Roll out the puff pastry sheet and cut it into 4 equal squares. Line each muffin cup or tart mold with the pastry squares, pressing them gently to fit the shape.
- In a saucepan, combine the sugar and water over medium heat until the sugar dissolves. Let it cool slightly.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, egg yolks, and vanilla extract until well combined. Slowly pour in the sugar syrup while continuously whisking.
- Pour the custard mixture into the prepared pastry cups, filling them about 3/4 full.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the custard is set and the pastry is golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and let the Pastel de Nata cool slightly before serving. Optionally, sprinkle with ground cinnamon before serving.
