Amazing Fresh Strawberry Pastry
Crisp, sugar dusted puff pastry with juicy slices of strawberry baked on top. Perfect for brunch or dessert!
Ingredients
- 1 sheet puff pastry thawed (1/2 box)
- 2 cups strawberries sliced
- 2 Tbsp unsalted butter melted
- 3 Tbsp granulated sugar
Glaze
- 1/3 cup confectioners sugar
- 1-2 Tbsp heavy cream
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400° F. Line a baking sheet with parchment or spray with cooking spray.
- Hull the strawberries and cut into thin slices, about 5-6 slices per strawberry. Set aside.
- Unfold the puff pastry on a sheet of parchment paper or flour dusted board. Using a pizza cutter or sharp knife, cut the puff pastry sheet into 9 squares. Cut on the existing fold lines, then cut each long rectangle into 3 squares, for a total of 9. Cut a shallow channel about 1/4 inch from the edges of each square.
- Melt the butter. Using a pastry brush, lightly brush each square with melted butter, then sprinkle each square with about 1/2 the sugar. Place 4 slices of strawberry on each pastry square, staying within the lines you cut with the knife. Dust the squares with the remaining 1/2 of the sugar and place the sheet pan in the 400 F oven.
- Bake for 20 minutes, but begin checking the oven at 18 minutes. The pastry will be golden brown when the pastries are done. Transfer to wire rack.
- Combine the confectioners sugar and cream in a small bowl. Add the cream 1 tablespoon at a time until you have reached the consistency you want. Drizzle over the pastries. Let the glaze set a few minutes before serving.
