A simplified, delicious, tasty pastry recipe. Made with a flaky store-bought pastry with fresh strawberries and powdered sugar.
Ingredients
- 1 sheet puff pastry
- about 2/3 cup of small diced strawberries
- 1 tsp honey
- 1 egg whisked with 1 tbsp water
- powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
- Thaw puff pastry according to directions on the package.
- Preheat oven to 400 F degrees.
- Wash and cut strawberries to small pieces. Mix with honey.
- Slightly rolled out puff pastry.
- Cut pastry into heart shapes using a 3-inch heart shape cookie cutter.
- Using a sharp pairing knife or toothpick, lightly score a heart inside of each cut out heart, without cutting entirely through the bottom of the dough. Leave some place between the scored heart and the edge of the cut heart. See photo above for reference.
- Add strawberries to the scored heart without covering the edges.
- Brush egg wash on the edge of hearts.
- Bake for 15 minutes or until edges are golden brown. Let cool and dust with powdered sugar. Serve.
Notes
Add extra honey in strawberry mixture or powdered sugar if you prefer sweeter pastries. Optional you can add decorated sugar to your strawberries for extra sweetness too. Pastries are best served same day it is prepared.
