Blueberry Puff Pastry Recipe
Ingredients
2 heaping cups fresh blueberries
1/3 cup sugar
4 Tbsp. cornstarch
2 tsp. lemon juice
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
pinch of salt
1 pkg. frozen puff pastry, thawed we prefer Trader Joes Puff Pastry
1 Tbsp. butter
1 egg, beaten
A little flour for cutting surface
Additional sugar, for sprinkling
Instructions
1. Preheat oven temperature to 425F. In a medium sized bowl, mix together blueberries, cornstarch, sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon and salt. Use a rolling pin to roll the chilled puff pastry sheet out on a floured cutting board or work surface and use a pastry cutter or sharp knife cut into squares. a pizza cutter works great too!
If you are using a full package, you should end up with 8 squares, 4 per sheet of puff pastry. Place the cut pastry squares on to a parchment lined baking sheet.
2. Place a generous amount of the blueberry mixture in the middle of each pasty square. Fold the edges into the middle and pinch the dough together.
3. Melt the butter. Beat the egg and mix the beaten egg with the melted butter to create an egg wash. Use a pastry brush to brush the top and sides of the dough with some beaten egg and butter mixture. Sprinkle the moist area with sugar.
4. Bake for 20 minutes, or until bubbly and golden brown. Serve warm, with whipped cream, ice cream and/or top with powdered sugar. #blueberrypuff #blueberrypuffs #blueberrypuffsnacks
