Ingredients
Scale
- 1 sheet of puff pastry (thawed if frozen)
- 1 cup fresh blackberries
- 4 oz goat cheese, softened
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 egg (beaten, for egg wash)
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme or basil (optional for garnish)
- Coarse sea salt (for sprinkling)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Roll out the puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface to an even thickness. Cut into 1-inch wide strips.
- Mix the softened goat cheese with honey in a small bowl. Spread a thin layer over each pastry strip, leaving borders around the edges.
- Distribute fresh blackberries evenly over the goat cheese layer. Sprinkle with chopped fresh thyme or basil if using.
- Twist each strip from one end to the other, pinching the ends to secure the filling. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Brush the twists with beaten egg and sprinkle with coarse sea salt. Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden and puffed.
- Allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
Notes
- For extra flavor, add a drizzle of honey or balsamic glaze before serving.
- Can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
- Reheat in the oven or toaster oven to restore crispness.
