Scale
- 2 sheets store-bought puff pastry
- about 1/2 lb of strawberries, chopped small
- 2 tbsp coarse sugar, plus more for sprinkling on top of pastries
- 1 egg, beaten
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425F.
- Place chopped strawberries in a small bowl, add 2 tbsp sugar, stir and set aside.
- Roll the puff pastry sheets out using a rolling pin to 10 inches. Trim edges so they are straight.
- Use a ruler to cut each sheet into 4, 5 inch x 5 inch squares.
- Prick squares all over, gently, with a fork. You don’t want to pierce all the way through or the filling will leak.
- Add 1 1/2 to 2 tbsp of chopped strawberries per pastry square.
- Paint the edges of each square with beaten egg using a pastry brush. Lift one corner of pastry and fold over to the opposite corner. Press down around the edges with a fork to seal.
- Continue with remaining pastries, then cut a small slit in the top of each pastry to allow air to escape during the cooking process.
- Brush all the pastries with remaining beaten egg, then sprinkle each with a little coarse sugar.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, until golden brown.
- Allow to cool for 15 minutes before enjoying.
- Serve with fresh whipped cream if desired.
