Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 sheets puff pastry sheets
- 2 medium ripe pears
- 200 grams cream cheese
- 100 grams walnuts
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon milk
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour (for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
Lightly flour your work surface and roll out the puff pastry sheets to ensure an even thickness.
Peel and core the pears, then dice them into small cubes.
In a bowl, mix the diced pears, cream cheese, chopped walnuts, honey, and ground cinnamon until well combined.
Cut each puff pastry sheet into four equal squares, making a total of eight squares.
Place a spoonful of the pear and walnut mixture in the center of each square.
Fold each pastry square into a roll or seal it by pinching the edges together. Ensure no filling leaks out.
Beat the egg with the tablespoon of milk to create an egg wash.
Brush the egg wash over the tops of the rolls for a golden finish.
Place the rolls onto the prepared baking tray and bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and puffed up.
Allow the rolls to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
