I love Danish pastries and would love to have them anytime of the day. Since i adore the versality of puff pastry, i always have them in my freezer and with ready made puff pastry on hand, it only take few minutes to bake gorgeous stuffs with them. Simply thaw the frozen puff pastry dough and play around with your creativity.
I was craving for strawberry Danish pastry and by having frozen puff pastry, i know i can bake them in jiffy. The buttery,flaky rich pastry spread with strawberry jam and top with fresh strawberries are simply irressitible. The magic happens the moment the puff pastry enters the oven. Baking slowly to create flaky layers and baked to golden to satisfy my Danish pastry cravings.
1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed
1 pint fresh strawberries
2 tbsp butter,melted
1/2 cup strawberry jam
Methods
Preheat oven to 200'C or 392'F and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
With a sharp knife, cut the puff pastry into 4 equal squares, then cut an inner square. Lift the top right corner of the border to the opposite side(right side). Then, lift the the top left corner to the opposite which means the to corners should swap places. Gently pat the border to seal them. Repeat with the remaining dough.
Scoop 1 tablespoon strawberry jam in the middle of the dough. Brush the pastry with melted butter.
Bake for 15-17 minutes. Remove from oven and place on wire rack to cool.
Top with fresh strawberry and serve.
