Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 sheets Puff pastry sheets
- 24 slices Pepperoni slices
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 large Egg
- 1 tablespoon Water
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon Flour (for dusting)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Allow the puff pastry sheets to thaw slightly on a floured surface, about 5-10 minutes, until pliable but still cold.
In a small bowl, beat the egg with the water to create an egg wash.
Roll out one sheet of puff pastry to ensure an even thickness. Use a floured rolling pin if necessary.
Cut the puff pastry sheet into 12 equal squares.
Place one pepperoni slice in the center of each square, followed by a small pinch of shredded mozzarella cheese.
Lightly sprinkle a mixture of Italian seasoning and garlic powder over the cheese for added flavor.
Carefully fold each square by bringing the opposite corners together to form a triangle. Pinch and seal the edges tightly to prevent filling from leaking.
Repeat with the second puff pastry sheet to make a total of 24 puffs.
Transfer the puffs to the prepared baking sheet, leaving at least 1 inch of space between each puff.
Brush the tops of the puffs with the egg wash for a golden finish during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the puffs are golden brown and crispy.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving. These are best enjoyed warm!
