Instructions

  1. Step 1

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

  2. Step 2

    In a small bowl, mix the 0.5 cup raisins, 2 tbsp brown sugar, and 0.5 tsp cinnamon until combined.

    Roll out the 1 puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface. Cut into 4 equal rectangles.

    In a small bowl, whisk the 1 egg with 1 tbsp water. Brush the tops of the pastries with the egg wash.

    Bake for 15-18 minutes, until golden brown and puffed. Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
