Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.

  2. Step 2

    Thaw the 1 puff pastry sheet according to package directions, then unfold it on a lightly floured surface.

  3. Step 3

    Cut the pastry into 4 equal squares. Place 2 tbsp of jam or cheese in the center of each square.

  4. Step 4

    Whisk the 1 egg with 1 tbsp water in a small bowl. Brush the edges of each square with the egg wash.

  5. Step 5

    Fold each square diagonally to form a triangle, pressing edges with a fork to seal. Brush the tops with remaining egg wash.

  6. Step 6

    Place the pastries on the prepared tray, leaving space between them. Bake until golden and puffed, about 15-18 minutes.

  7. Step 7

    Let cool on the tray for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
