Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 sheets Dairy-free puff pastry sheets
- 1 cup Dairy-free cream cheese
- 1 cup Dairy-free shredded cheese
- 0.25 cup Fresh parsley
- 0.25 cup Fresh chives
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 3 tablespoons Aquafaba (liquid from a can of chickpeas)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
On a floured surface, gently roll out the dairy-free puff pastry sheets to ensure they're a bit thinner and to remove any creases.
In a mixing bowl, combine the dairy-free cream cheese, dairy-free shredded cheese, chopped parsley, chopped chives, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper, mixing until well combined.
Cut each puff pastry sheet into four equal squares, resulting in a total of eight squares.
Spoon a dollop of the cheese and herb mixture into the center of each pastry square, ensuring there’s enough space around the edges.
Using your finger or a pastry brush, brush a little water around the edges of each pastry square.
Fold each square into a triangle, encasing the filling, and press the edges together with a fork to seal.
Transfer the filled pastry triangles to the prepared baking sheet.
Brush the tops of the pastries with aquafaba to ensure a golden finish when baked.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastries are puffed and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and transfer the pastries to a wire rack to cool slightly before serving.
