Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 sheets puff pastry sheets
- 8 ounces smoked kielbasa sausage
- 0.5 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Allow the puff pastry sheets to thaw slightly so they are pliable but still cool to the touch. This should take about 10 minutes.
Slice the kielbasa sausage into thin, bite-sized rounds and set aside.
Roll out each sheet of puff pastry onto a lightly floured surface to smooth out any wrinkles.
Cut each pastry sheet into four equal squares, for a total of eight squares.
Spread about 1 tablespoon of creamy peanut butter in the center of each square, avoiding the edges.
Place 3-4 slices of kielbasa on top of the peanut butter layer.
Fold each square into a triangle by bringing two opposite corners together. Use a fork to crimp the edges and seal the triangles tightly.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to create an egg wash. Brush the tops of each triangle with the egg wash.
Optional: sprinkle sesame seeds on top of the triangles for extra texture and flavor.
Place the triangles onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch of space between each.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the pastry turns golden brown and puffs up.
Allow the Kielbasa Peanut Butter Triangles to cool slightly before serving warm.
