Guava & Cream Cheese Puff Pastry


Yield: Several Pastries

Ingredients

  • 8 oz guava paste
  • 4 oz cream cheese (not spread)
  • 16-18 oz puff pastry sheets or similar
  • powdered or granulated sugar (optional)
  • flour (for stretching dough)

Utensils

  • parchment paper
  • baking sheet or air fryer
  • dough/pin roller

Let’s Make It!

  1. Ensure the puff pastry is at room temperature.
  2. Spread some flour onto a surface and line the pastry sheets on it. Using the pin roller, spread out the dough. They need to be somewhat flat, although it isn’t fully required.
  3. Cut the dough into ~4×4 inch slices or however large you want them.
  4. Add a small piece of guava paste and cream cheese near the end, and gently roll and seal the dough. This is flexible, as most shapes will work fine!
  5. Add the finished pastries to a parchment-lined baking sheet or parchment-lined air fryer. Bake at 380°F for around 15 minutes or until the edges start to brown. Don’t worry if the pastry on the inside is a little underdone, as it compliments the texture.
  6. Take out the pastries and dust them with sugar. Then, let cool for 30-60 minutes.
  7. These can be stored for up to a day at room temperature.
