What pies to make from puff pastry. Various beautiful puffs

23.06.2020 Vegetable dishes

Hello dear!

I missed you) How the summer swirled and relaxed at the same time! Walking, nature, warmth, barbecue, fresh air, splash of warm water. So much so that it does not emerge at all)) And I do not regret it at all!

But there were also rainy, cool days when we were at home and again we wanted hot tea, and to it something baked, warm, fragrant.

One of these days I wanted to bake puffs. So that it was beautiful puffs, intricate, with different sweet fillings. And away we go))

There is nothing complicated in the process of making puffs, all the work is described on the package with the dough.

Ingredients for making beautiful puffs:

- ready-made puff pastry in packages (in the form of rectangular or square layers);

- 1 egg for greasing the puffs.

Options for sweet puff fillings:

- cinnamon with sugar;

- steamed pitted raisins;

- slices of banana;

- steamed and chopped prunes and dried apricots (individually or in a mixture);

- fresh berries (with sugar optional): strawberries, raspberries, cherries, cherries;

- fresh apple slices, sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar;

- canned fruit in pieces: peaches, apricots, pineapples;

- jam, jam, jam;

- boiled condensed milk;

- pieces of chocolate.

Cooking puffs:

I have come across two types of puff pastry from different manufacturers: squares and rectangles. Based on the shape of the layers, we will also choose the type for future layers.

Which dough to choose: yeast or yeast-free?

From yeast dough, puffs are softer, and from yeast-free dough - more crunchy. Choose according to your taste. I love yeast dough and soft puffs.

How to work with ready-made frozen puff pastry?

Separate the frozen layers of dough from each other, put on a flat surface for 20-30 minutes, until they become soft. If necessary, roll out (roll out in one direction only so that the layers of dough are not damaged!). Give the dough any shape, using the filling if desired. Place the puffs on a baking sheet on baking paper at a distance from each other, cover with a towel and leave at room temperature for 15-20 minutes for proofing. Brush the dough with a beaten egg to make the finished layers shine. Bake in an oven preheated to 220 degrees for 5-7 minutes until golden brown, then reduce the temperature to 175 degrees and bake until tender for another 10 -15 minutes.

Use your sharpest knife to cut the dough! I use ceramic. If your knife has been sharpened for a long time, then the dough can stick to it.

Rectangular dough sheets

"Bagels"

Cut the dough layers diagonally. Put banana slices on the bases of the resulting triangles, roll them up in a bagel. Here For filling chunks of chocolate are also good.

"Curls"

Sprinkle the dough thickly with cinnamon and sugar, leaving one of the narrow edges of the dough free. Roll up with a roll in the direction of the free edge.

Cut the roll in half. Cut each part in the middle, not reaching a little to the end. Turn the resulting halves out.

"Pies with cuts"

Cut the dough layer in half along the long side. Make parallel cuts on one half of the resulting rectangles. Put chopped berries on the other half (I have cherries).

Cover the filling with the other half of the dough, slightly stretching the incisions. Press firmly on the edges of the puff with your fingers so that they do not stick out during baking. Here bright berries are well suited for the filling: cherries, strawberries, which will be visible through the cuts.

"Curly pies"

Cut the dough layer in half along the long side. Put jam / jam on one half of the resulting rectangles, cover with the other half of the dough, press the edges tightly with your fingers.

Then press the edges with a fork to make grooves. Press the dough tightly along the edges so that the filling does not flow out!

Square dough sheets

To make blanks for puffs, we cut each square layer of dough into 4 small squares.

"Chamomile"

We make cuts in the corners, leaving a distance of about 1 cm between them on the sides of the square. Put halves of canned apricots in the center.

Pull the corners of the dough to the center, press tightly.

"Envelopes"

Put steamed raisins on the center of the square (pre-pour the raisins with boiling water for 10 minutes to become soft, then drain the water). Pull the corners of the dough to the center, press tightly. Almost any non-liquid filling is suitable here: chopped bananas, berries, fruits, dried apricots, prunes.

"Baskets"

My favorite puff shape! There are long cuts on opposite corners of the cases. Transfer the dough from the corners to opposite sides, press slightly.

Put the filling in the resulting "basket" (I have fresh chopped strawberries with sugar). Any filling will do, it looks best in contrasting color with the dough.

Put the puffs on a baking sheet on baking paper, grease the dough for shine with a beaten egg.

Phew, that was all for today! I don’t know who was more pleased - me when I was cooking, or everyone whom I treated))

Of course, this is not all that can be wrapped from puff pastry. I'd like to add more to the article. After all, there are still simple flaky "tongues" and "spirals" with sugar, triangular pies, one more flaky "flowers" ...

Help yourself! All the best to you, summer and warm! I sincerely wish you to enjoy the last summer month!

With love, Elena Nazarenko

Knead the dough. We cut into equal 20 parts. We put it on a plate and send it to the refrigerator for an hour, or to the freezer for a quarter of an hour.

We cut the apples into small cubes - first into 5 mm thick plates, then we cut them into cubes and cubes. Some varieties of apple pulp quickly darken on contact with air. To prevent this, dip the sliced apple pieces in a container with lemon juice diluted with water. Then just fold it in a colander.

Roll the chilled pieces of dough thinly, put 1.5 tablespoons of apple pieces and a teaspoon of sugar.

Put the puffs on a baking sheet covered with oil, grease them with an egg and sprinkle with sugar. You can cook at 200 degrees. within 20 minutes.

Place a tea in the center of each square. a spoonful of starch, which will absorb the juice of the berries and prevent the puff from falling apart during baking. Put a few berries on top, sprinkle with one (a little more) teaspoon of sugar. Depending on how you want the puffs to look - open or closed - the way the puffs are glued depends. If they are open, pinch the corners of the dough together so that the center of the puff remains open. If closed - in any way described in the above recipes. Bake at 180 degrees. within a third of an hour.

How to cook with chocolate?

A very easy way for quick sweet puffs is with chocolate. This recipe is suitable if guests are already in a hurry to visit you, and you do not know what to offer for tea.

500 grams of puff yeast-free dough;
egg;
2 chocolate bars.

The standard packaging of the finished dough usually contains two layers of dough. And this is very useful if you want to please your guests not with a simple dessert, but with pastries with different fillings. We propose to turn one layer into a puff with bitter chocolate, and the second - with milk, filled with raisins and nuts. Optionally, you can replace the options with your favorite ones.

So, you need to start by rolling out the dough. In this case, the layer does not need to be cut, in the future it will be possible to cut the finished puff into pieces. The sheet should retain the corners and be twice the size of the chocolate. Put a tile in the center and make parallel oblique cuts along the remaining protruding edges of the dough with a knife. Next, cover the chocolate with shorter pieces of dough, and weave the slanting ribbons in turn, completely covering it.

We repeat the same with the remaining dough and the second chocolate bar.

Beat the egg well and grease the baked goods with it. Watch the edges of the pastry, they must be pinched well, otherwise the chocolate may leak out. We bake at 200 degrees. within 20-25 minutes.

On a note. Banana goes well with chocolate. It can also be cut into strips and placed under the chocolate bar while assembling the puff.

Yeast-free puff pastry made from unleavened dough (flour, water and salt) with the addition of a large amount of butter, which is “hammered” into the dough by folding and rolling it repeatedly. Puffs, cookies, cakes, strudels are prepared from yeast-free puff pastry. By the way, the famous Napoleon cake in its French original is also made from such a puff yeast-free dough.
Yeast puff pastry prepared in the same way, but from yeast dough. Yeast puff pastry can be used to make croissants, rolls and a variety of so-called Viennese pastries.
