Petiscos de massa folhada com queijo de cabra e geleia

Ingredientes

• 1 sheet puff pastry (thawed but cold)
• 1/3 cup jam or preserves (apricot or sour cherry recommended)
• 3 ounces crumbled goat cheese
• 4 sprigs fresh thyme (leaves separated into small pieces)

Modo de preparo

1. 1

   Prepare Puff Pastry: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). On a lightly floured surface, unfold the thawed but still cold puff pastry sheet. Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, cut the sheet into 12 equal squares. Place the squares onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

2. 2

   Add Goat Cheese: Evenly sprinkle the crumbled goat cheese over each puff pastry square, ensuring each piece has a generous amount.

3. 3

   Top with Jam and Thyme: Add about a teaspoon of your chosen jam or preserves on top of the goat cheese on each puff pastry square. Sprinkle small pieces of fresh thyme leaves over the jam and cheese to add a fragrant, herbal note.

4. 4

   Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake the appetizers for 15-18 minutes or until the puff pastry is golden brown and puffed, and the cheese is melted and slightly browned.

5. 5

   Serve: Remove from the oven and allow the appetizers to cool slightly before serving warm or at room temperature.
