How to work with ready-made frozen puff pastry

Separate the frozen layers of dough from each other, put on a flat surface for 20-30 minutes until they become soft. Roll out as needed (roll in one direction only to avoid damaging the layers of dough!). Give the dough any shape, if desired, use the filling. Put the puffs on a baking sheet on baking paper at a distance from each other, cover with a towel and leave at room temperature for 15-20 minutes to proof. To shine the finished puffs, brush the dough with a beaten egg. Bake in an oven preheated to 220 degrees for 5-7 minutes until golden brown, then reduce the temperature to 175 degrees and bake for another 10-15 minutes until done.

Use your sharpest knife to cut the dough! I use ceramic. If your knife has been sharpened for a long time, then the dough may stick to it.

Square sheets of dough

To make blanks for puffs, cut each square layer of dough into 4 small squares.

"Daisies"

We make cuts in the corners, leaving a distance of about 1 cm between them on the sides of the square. In the center we put halves of canned apricots.

We tighten the corners of the dough to the center, press it tightly.

"Envelopes"

We put steamed raisins on the center of the square (previously pour raisins with boiling water for 10 minutes to become soft, then drain the water). We pull the corners of the dough to the center, press it tightly. Almost any non-liquid filling is suitable here: chopped bananas, berries, fruits, dried apricots, prunes.

"Baskets"

My favorite form of puffs! On opposite corners of cases there are long incisions. We shift the dough from the corners to opposite sides, lightly press.

In the resulting “basket” we put the filling (I have fresh chopped strawberries with sugar). Any filling will do, contrasting in color with dough looks best.

Put the puffs on a baking sheet on baking paper, grease the dough for shine with a beaten egg.

Phew, that was it for today! I don’t know who was more pleased - me, when I cooked, or everyone I treated))

Of course, this is not all that can be wrapped from puff pastry. I really want to add more to the article. After all, there are still simple puff “tongues” and “spirals” with sugar, triangular pies, one more puff “flowers” ​​...

Help yourself! All the best to you, summer, warm! I sincerely wish you to enjoy the last summer month!

Cut the roll in half. Cut each part in the middle, without reaching a little to the end. Turn the resulting halves out.

"Pies with cuts"

Cut the dough sheet in half along the long side. Make parallel cuts on one half of the resulting rectangles. Put chopped berries on the other half (I have cherries).

Cover the filling with the second half of the dough, slightly stretching the cuts. Press the edges of the puff tightly with your fingers so that they do not come apart during baking. Here, bright berries are well suited for the filling: cherries, strawberries, which will be visible through cuts.

"Figured pies"

Cut the dough sheet in half along the long side. Put jam / jam on one half of the resulting rectangles, cover with the other half of the dough, press the edges tightly with your fingers.

Then press the edges with a fork to make grooves. Press the dough firmly around the edges so that the filling does not leak out!

Ingredients

For 24 pieces:

• 900 g of ready-made puff yeast-free dough;
• Thick jam or jam;
• 1-2 yolks for greasing puffs + 1-2 teaspoons of water or milk;
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil for greasing the baking sheet;
• Optionally - poppy seeds, sesame seeds for sprinkling.

How to bake:

Defrost puff pastry completely at room temperature. You cannot speed up the defrosting process in the microwave. But when the dough thaws, you can roll it out a little - preferably in one direction, on a table slightly dusted with flour so that it does not stick.

I rolled out each layer (and there are 4 in a package) and cut it into 4 parts, like this.

Now visually divide the pieces of dough in half and in one half, stepping back from the edge, cut out a hole with a cookie cutter. Julia had hearts, as the puffs were preparing for Valentine's Day. And I took hearts, butterflies, flowers and stars! From the figures we will then make cute little cookies.

And on the second half, also retreating 1.5-2 cm from the edge, lay out a couple of teaspoons of jam. I took apricot and blueberry, but in general you can use any - apple, pear, plum. The main thing is that the jam should be thick so that it does not spread and does not run away during baking.

Lightly grease the inner edges of the puffs with water so that the puffs can be well sealed. We cover half of the dough with the filling with the second half, the one with the figure, and press the edges. It is better not to pinch them, but to press them with your finger, stepping back a little from the edge - then the edges will delaminate and turn out to be lush and beautiful - I learned this trick from my friend Marie when I was preparing khachapuri from puff pastry.

In addition, we will go along the edges of the puffs with a fork, pressing and at the same time creating a pattern - as for making shortcakes with strawberries. Simple and beautiful!

Turn on the oven to heat up to 220-230C. Lightly grease a sheet of baking parchment with vegetable oil and line a baking sheet with it. Lay out the layers.

Now we separate the yolk from the protein, add a spoonful of water or milk to the yolk, shake and brush the surface of the puffs with a brush.

We put in the oven and bake until the dough is stratified, the puffs become tall, lush, golden brown. In an electric oven, pastries will be ready faster, in 15-20 minutes. in gas it will take more time - 25-30 minutes.

We take out the finished puffs and transfer them to a dish to cool slightly.

Put the figures left after cutting out the windows in the puffs on a new sheet of oiled parchment, lightly smear with yolk. You can sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon, and I sprinkled with poppy seeds and sesame seeds. Put in the oven and bake for 10-15 minutes until golden brown. Since small cookies bake much faster than large puffs, we bake them separately.

Very tasty savory cookies!

We serve puffs with jam for tea or berry-fruit compote.
