Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 sheets puff pastry sheets
- 2 cups mixed fresh fruits (such as berries, peaches, and apples, diced)
- 4 oz cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1 tablespoon powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Thaw the puff pastry sheets according to package instructions. Once thawed, unfold them on a lightly floured surface.
In a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
Cut each puff pastry sheet into 4 equal squares, making a total of 8 squares.
Spread about 1 tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture in the center of each square.
Top the cream cheese layer with about 2 tablespoons of mixed fruit, ensuring not to overfill the pastry.
In a small bowl, beat the egg with 1 tablespoon of water to make an egg wash.
Brush the edges of each pastry square with the egg wash.
Fold each pastry square in half diagonally to form a triangle, pressing the edges together to seal. Use a fork to crimp the edges for an extra seal.
Place the pastries on the prepared baking sheet and lightly brush the tops with the remaining egg wash.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the pastries are golden brown and puffed.
Remove the pastries from the oven and let them cool slightly on a wire rack.
Dust with powdered sugar before serving, if desired.
