Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 sheets Puff pastry sheets
- 200 grams Button mushrooms
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves
- 1 medium Shallots
- 1 teaspoon Thyme
- 50 grams Cream cheese
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 large Egg
- 1 tablespoon Water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Finely chop the mushrooms, garlic, and shallots.
Heat a skillet over medium heat and melt the butter. Sauté the garlic and shallots until fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the chopped mushrooms to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms release their moisture and it evaporates, about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in the thyme, salt, and black pepper, and remove the skillet from the heat. Let the mixture cool for 5 minutes and then mix in the cream cheese until well combined.
On a floured surface, roll out the puff pastry sheets and cut them into 6 equal squares.
Place a spoonful of the cooled mushroom mixture in the center of each square. Fold one corner of the square to the opposite corner to create a triangular shape, and press the edges with a fork to seal.
In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to make an egg wash. Brush the top of each puff with the egg wash for a golden finish.
Transfer the puffs to the prepared baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed up.
Allow the mushroom puffs to cool for a few minutes before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.
