Baking from ready-made puff pastry will help you out if unexpected guests suddenly appear. Just 20-30 minutes and the dessert is ready.
- Puff pastry must be thawed beforehand. On average, a semi-finished product weighing 500 g may take 2 hours. You can transfer the frozen dough from the freezer to the refrigerator in the evening and then by morning it will be ready for further use. This is the most gentle way of defrosting, which allows you to maintain the quality of the semi-finished product.
The thawed dough should be laid out on a floured table and sprinkled with flour on top. It should be rolled out to a thickness of 3-4 mm. You need to do this by moving the rolling pin always in one direction: only away from you or only towards you. This precaution is necessary to preserve the layering of the dough.
- Next, cut the cake into squares measuring 10 by 10 cm. This must also be done carefully so as not to pull the dough. A round pizza cutter or kitchen scissors work best. If, apart from a regular knife, there is nothing at hand, then they do not need to cut, but push through the dough.
- After that, fold one square in half diagonally. Then make two cuts with scissors parallel to the short sides of the triangle, stepping back from the edge of 1 cm. The cuts should not be connected.
- After that, the square must be returned to its original state.
- Lay the separated strips criss-cross.
- In the center of the resulting figure, put a teaspoon of apricot jam.
- In the same way, it is necessary to form and fill the rest of the puff pastry squares with the filling. The resulting blanks must be carefully transferred to a baking sheet covered with parchment. Leave some space between the puffs as the dough will expand significantly during baking.
- Bake at 180 degrees for 15-20 minutes. During this time, the dough will rise well and lightly browned.
- Transfer the puffs to a plate to cool completely. After baking, the filling will be in the recess. If desired, you can add another spoonful of jam, crushed nuts or pieces of fruit from jam there. Sprinkle the cooled pastries with powdered sugar. Enjoy the treat with the whole family, serve it with tea or coffee. If you follow your figure, then remember that the calorie content of jam puffs is quite high and is about 400 Kcal per 100 g of finished baking.

For the filling, any jam, marmalade, jam or confiture that you have available is suitable. It all depends on the personal preferences of the chef. The main thing to pay attention to is the consistency of the jam. It should not be liquid, so as not to spread outside the puff and remain inside it. If the jam is liquid, then most likely the pastry will turn out dry. And in the absence of a suitable jam, homemade puffs can be prepared with fresh berries, fruits, condensed milk, cottage cheese, etc.

We connect the opposite ends of the dough, and bend the other two edges a little inward. Brush the top of the puffs with the egg as well. We send a baking sheet with puffs to the oven, heated to 180 degrees C, for 20 minutes.

Light
Ingredients
- Yeast-free puff pastry 500 g;
- Yolk 1 pc.;
- Jam 200 ml;
- Starch (potato or corn) - 2 tbsp.
Cooking
First, let's solve the problem with jam. If you have thick jam or jam, then in this case you do not need starch. But the liquid jam will immediately flow out of the puffs. Therefore, heat it, add starch there and stir well, there should be no lumps. Now it should cool down completely. When baking products from puff pastry, jam with starch, when heated, will turn into a very thick mass that will remain inside the puffs.
Defrost a package of puff pastry and roll it into a large layer up to 2-3 mm thick.
Cut the sheet into 6 even pieces. Each part, in turn, is cut in half again and on one of the halves we make small oblique cuts.
Gently spread the jam on a part of the puff without cuts.
We fasten the edges well, forming a finished puff.
Lubricate the blanks of puffs with whipped yolk so that our pastries are browned.
In an oven heated to 200 degrees, bake puffs for 15-20 minutes.
As you can see in our photo, the filling did not leak out, and puff pastry puffs with jam turned out to be golden in color, neat and very appetizing.
Also be sure to try cooking.
