Preheat oven: Set to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Prepare the pastry: Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface. Cut into 12 equal squares (about 3×3 inches each).
Add the filling: Place a small spoonful of your chosen filling in the center of each square. (Don’t overfill, or they may burst while baking.)
Fold the parcels: Bring opposite corners of the pastry together over the filling and pinch to seal, forming little parcels. Brush with beaten egg for a glossy golden finish.
Bake: Place parcels on the baking sheet and bake for 15–18 minutes, or until puffed and golden brown.
Cool & Serve: Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy them warm — they’re irresistible!
🌟 Tips:
You can prepare them ahead of time, refrigerate, and bake just before serving.
For extra crispiness, chill the filled parcels in the fridge for 10 minutes before baking.
Dust sweet versions with powdered sugar after baking for a bakery-style touch!
🍽️ Perfect For:
Parties, brunch tables, afternoon tea, or as quick snacks for guests. Serve with dipping sauces — honey mustard for savory or fruit coulis for sweet versions! 😋
