Ingredients
Scale
- 1 sheet puff pastry
- 4 oz goat cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup cranberry sauce
- 1 egg (for egg wash)
- Fresh herbs (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface until it’s evenly flat.
- Spread goat cheese evenly over the entire pastry sheet for a creamy foundation.
- Spoon the cranberry sauce on top of the goat cheese, spreading it evenly to cover your base.
- Roll the pastry tightly from one side to form a log.
- Slice the log into 1-inch pieces and place the swirls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Brush the tops with the beaten egg to create a beautiful, golden finish.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the swirls puff up and turn golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired, and enjoy while warm!
Notes
Best served warm, perhaps with a light garnish of fresh herbs. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to three days.
