These Danish pastries will look and taste just like those bought from the bakery. The pastries are created in almost at the same time as the coffee is brewed. Instead of jam, you can use custard and canned fruit to fill the Danish Pastries.
Ingredients
- 500 g puff pastry from the fridge of supermarket
- 1 dl jam
- 1 egg
- 1 tbsp caster sugar
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 225C degrees.
- Take the puff pastry dough to melt. If you're in a hurry, it will soften quickly under hot water – just don’t open the bag!
- Roll the puff pastry dough sheet into a slightly thinner and larger rectangle. Place it on a baking tray on a baking sheet. Using a sharp knife, slice the butter dough so that it is 12 squares. The knife doesn't even need to go through the dough. Brush the buttered dough with beaten egg.
- Place a spoonful of jam in the centre of each square. Sprinkle the caster sugar over the entire sheet and place it in the oven.
- Bake quickly, about 10-15 minutes on the middle rack of the oven. They will rise into shape like magic.
- Allow the pastries to cool for a moment before serving.
