Our bow can be baked. When it is ready, sprinkle it with powdered sugar or spread apricot marmalade. Crispy yummy…

Puff pastry kare

The preparation of this treat will immediately add variety, because you can cook puff pastry with several fillings at the same time. And it is done like this:

Roll out a layer of puff pastry, cut it into squares. Fold each triangle, and then, on one side, make an incision, not reaching one centimeter to the edge. Now, carefully taking the edge from the side of the notch, we shift the cut strip to the opposite edge. Such pastries can be suitable not only for sweet dishes, but also as original snack. Just the squares in this case should be smaller. Fill the space with salad, meat or mushroom stuffing- The taste of this dish is very refined.

Puff pastry
The dough pigtail that we offer you to make is very simple to perform.

Cut the rolled out puff pastry into thin, narrow rectangles.
In the middle of each rectangle we make an incision in one third of its entire length.

Now, we can start weaving. We take one edge of the rectangle and pass it into the resulting hole, then again and so on until we get such a beautiful braid (see photo below).

Puff pastry croissant
Air puff bagels with a beautiful name croissants are known and loved by both children and adults.

To prepare them, roll out puff pastry in the shape of a rectangle or circle, as it suits you. Then cut it into long triangles. Each triangle, starting from the base, is wrapped with a roll. It turns out just as cute as in the photo below.

Brush the top with egg yolk and place in the oven. Croissants can be with a wide variety of fillings.

Puff pastry medallion
You probably already understood that many product names directly describe how this or that puff looks like. Take, for example, medallions. It is immediately clear that we have a sweet decoration in front of us, however, its purpose is somewhat different than that of jewelry pendants. And yes, it's much easier to do.

We cut the rolled out layer of puff pastry into squares, which we then fold in half, forming triangles. Now, stepping back from the edge by 1-1.5 cm, starting from the base, we make cuts on both sides of the triangle. Moreover, it is necessary to make cuts in such a way that they do not reach the upper corner of the triangle by a centimeter and a half.

Now, taking the cut strips by the edges, we connect them together and create a “bed” for the filling, as it is done in the photo below. We fill it with stuffing and you can send the medallion to the oven.

Half a puff pastry croissant
Croissant halves look very attractive on their own. Small, neat, they just ask to be tried as soon as possible. And you need to make them in almost the same way as whole croissants.

But when the triangles are ready to be folded, they are cut in half along the entire length. When wrapping the roll, you need to hold the cut side so that the edge is even and beautiful, without protrusions. After the puff is baked, this edge is sprinkled with powdered sugar, sprinkles, dipped in melted chocolate, marmalade, or icing.

Puff pastry strip

Puff tongues from Soviet school canteens are remembered by absolutely all representatives of the older generation. Our strips are somewhat similar to them, but they look much more appetizing, and besides, they are also stuffed.

So, having rolled out a layer of puff pastry, spread the filling on half of it, sprinkle with sesame seeds or nuts and fold the sheet in half, putting the free edge on the half with the filling. Gently straighten and cut into strips, the width of which we determine to your taste. Sprinkle the finished strips with powder and decorate.

Mesh puff pastry
The classic design of the pie - mesh, will be used by us in the preparation of the puff.

To do this, we need a special tool, a roller stamp. Having cut out the same squares from the rolled out layer of puff pastry, we divide them in such a way that we get the same number of smooth squares and squares with a mesh. Having processed the smooth part with egg white, spread the filling on it and cover it with a mesh on top. We bake.

Puff pastry snack
Translated from English, snack means - snack. Here we suggest you prepare delicious puffs, which will be very convenient for a snack.

As always, carefully, trying not to press down, roll out the puff pastry. We arm ourselves with a special device and draw a line consisting of thin horizontal stripes in the center of the rolled sheet. In the event that there is no roller fixture in the house, work with a knife. To make it easier for you to make horizontal cuts, visually divide the sheet in front of you into three equal parts. The central part is to be processed. Then, right on our strips, lay out the filling, sprinkle it with sesame seeds or nuts and overlap with smooth edges.

We put each slice flat on a baking sheet and send it to the oven.

We open the square. Do not rush to remove the cut off strip. Just take one opposite edge first and connect them, and then the others and connect them all in the center.

From simple puff "tongues" to the amazing Napoleon cake - puffs, tubes, "envelopes", "corners", "roses"; pastry stuffed with apples, cottage cheese, cheese, sausage, jam, chocolate, custard! This is the richness of variations concealed in recipes from purchased puff pastry.

Bake everything puff products should be on a baking sheet sprinkled with flour, or covered with baking parchment, at a temperature of 200-220ºС. Readiness is easy to find out: baking is stratified, acquiring a golden color.

1. Puffs "Bows"

Roll out puff pastry 1 cm thick, cut into strips about 10 cm long, 3-4 cm wide. Twist in the middle to make a “bow”. Bake, transfer to a plate and sprinkle with powdered sugar.

2. Puffs "Ears"

We roll out the dough 0.5 cm thick, sprinkle the cake with cinnamon sugar and fold the right edge first, then the left one with a roll to the middle of the cake. It turns out a double roll. We cut it into pieces 0.5 cm thick, lay out the “ears” on a baking sheet covered with parchment, and bake until cooked.

3. Puffs "Corners"

We cut the dough into squares, in the middle of each we lay out a non-liquid filling: pieces of apples, cherries, cottage cheese, or boiled eggs with green onion, or mushrooms fried with onions. We bend the squares of dough diagonally to make a triangle, and press along the perimeter with a finger, stepping back 1 cm from the edge: then the filling will not “run away” during baking, and the edges of the “corners” will delaminate nicely.

4. Puffs "Roses"

Can be made sweet or snack. Having rolled out the dough with a thickness of 0.5 cm, cut the cake into strips 15 cm long, 3 cm wide.

On the dough we lay thin semicircular slices of apples sprinkled with cinnamon sugar, or boiled sausage- so that the edges protrude slightly above the dough, - and roll the dough into a roll. We fasten the roses with toothpicks and bake until golden.

You can sprinkle strips of dough with grated cheese or poppy seeds, then roll up - you get puff "snails".

5. Cheese sticks

Cut the cake 1 cm thick into strips, grease with a beaten egg, sprinkle with grated cheese. You can sprinkle with cumin or sesame seeds.

We pinch the pies, press them a little, put them on a baking sheet with the seam down and bake until light golden.

7. Puffs "Tubules"

To cook them, you will need special metal baking cones. We wind strips of dough 1 cm wide on them, slightly overlapping, and bake. Remove the finished cooled tubes from the cones and fill with cream: creamy, custard or protein.

8. Puffs "Croissants"

Roll out the dough into a circle 0.5 cm thick and cut into triangular segments, as for bagels. We put a non-liquid filling on the wide edge: berries, a piece of jam, nuts with raisins and honey, a piece of chocolate - and turn from the wide end to the narrow one. Dip the top side of the croissant into the beaten egg, then into the sugar. Put on a baking sheet and bake until golden brown.

9. Spiral cake

As an alternative to small puffs, you can bake a large, spectacular layered cake! Roll out the dough 0.5 cm thick, cut into long, narrow strips (5 cm wide, the longer the better).

In the middle of the strips put the filling: grated cheese, mushrooms, minced meat. We pinch the edges and lay the resulting "tubes" with the filling in a spiral shape. You can make a pie with different fillings, alternating them. Brush the top of the pie with beaten egg, sprinkle with sesame seeds or caraway seeds. We bake at 180-200 C until golden brown.

10. Napoleon

The most delicious and favorite puff pastry recipe! We roll out the dough into cakes 2-3 mm thick, according to the size of the baking sheet (and so that the thin cake does not tear, it is more convenient to roll it out immediately on floured parchment), pierce the cakes in several places with a fork and bake every 15-20 minutes. Finished cakes take it out, let it cool, give it an even shape. Fold the cut edges into a bag and walk with a rolling pin, you get crumbs for sprinkling the finished cake. We coat with custard, sprinkle the cake with crumbs and leave to soak for 3-4 hours.

Apple strudel

Strudel is a crispy puff pastry roll with a sweet filling.

The secret of making strudel from ready-made puff pastry in the oven can be found in this recipe.

Ingredients:
Plate (250 g) puff pastry; large apple or 2 medium ones; a tablespoon (with a slide) of flour; 4 tbsp. l. Sahara; -2 tbsp. l. bread crumbs; - 1/3 cup kernels walnuts; - half a teaspoon of cinnamon (add if desired); -1 chicken egg.

3. In another cup, mix the walnuts, which we grind not too finely, breadcrumbs and the remaining half of granulated sugar.
4. Roll out the thawed puff pastry plate with a rolling pin on a table dusted with flour. It is necessary to obtain a thinner layer of rectangular shape. We spread the nut mass in the center. An empty dough should remain along the edges of the filling, not inferior in width to the nut layer.
5. Distribute the apple mass over the nuts.
6. Now carefully wrap the roll. First we bend one side, it should completely cover the filling, and then the second side.

8. Turning the edges of the roll down, transfer it to a baking sheet covered with baking paper and grease with a beaten egg until foamy.
9. We make cross cuts on the dough with a knife and once again go through them with egg grease. When baking such a strudel, the filling will never leak out, flour and breadcrumbs will hold Apple juice inside the roll.
10. Bake the strudel at 180 degrees. The roll can be considered ready as soon as it acquires a ruddy and appetizing appearance. Let the strudel cool down a bit and, cutting the roll into pieces, enjoy its juicy apple flavor.
