Easy and Quick Cheddar Bacon Puff Pastries for a Surprise Gathering
Are you looking to impress your guests with some delicious appetizers? These puff pastries blend the crispiness of the pastry with the meltiness of the cheese and the smoky flavor of bacon, making them perfect for a casual get-together with friends or family.
Ingredients
– Serves: 6 people
– Rectangular puff pastry: 1 package
– Cheddar cheese: 6 slices
– Bacon: 6 to 8 slices
– Sesame seeds (optional)
Preparation
1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Unroll the puff pastry and arrange the slices of cheddar cheese and then the bacon on top.
3. Roll the puff pastry tightly into a log. Place it in the freezer for about 10 minutes to firm up slightly. Slice the log into pieces about 1/2 inch thick and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, ensuring there is space between each piece as they will expand during baking. Sprinkle with sesame seeds if using.
4. Bake for about 20 minutes or until the pastries are golden brown.
To Finish
If you have guests coming and want to prepare this recipe in advance but serve it warm, prepare the pastry log and keep it in the refrigerator until it’s time to bake. When ready, simply slice the pastries and bake as directed. Enjoy your delightful homemade treat!
