Parmesan Puffs

Recipe #132891 | 20 min | 10 min prep | add private note

A simple, super-quick-to-prepare recipe for an attractive and delicious appetiser, from the August/September 2005 issue of ‘Australian Vogue Entertaining + Travel’. The recipe recommends using good-quality store-bought puff pastry. For an attractive colour contrast, top half the puffs with the cayenne pepper or paprika as specified in the recipe; and the other half with one of these mixed with your favourite herb, finely chopped. Perhaps basil or thyme. You can have these fully prepared in advance, and bake just before they are required.

SERVES 20 , 64 puffs (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Preheat the oven to 220ºC.

    Cut out rounds of pastry with a 5cm diameter pastry cutter, and place them on a baking tray lined with baking paper.
  3. 3
    Brush the rounds with the egg wash.
  4. 4
    Place 2 teaspoons of parmesan and a pinch of cayenne pepper or paprika on each round.
  5. 5
    Bake for 10 minutes or until puffed and golden brown.

We really enjoyed these. We did think they were a bit on the dry side. I was creative on the toppings. I used the Parmesan cheese sprinkled on top of each of them and topped them with the following, cayenne pepper, paprika, chopped fresh dill, chopped fresh thyme, poppy seeds and sesame seeds. They do look great plated and are the perfect appetizer size. Thanks for posting.

    Fast and yummy appetizer. I skipped the egg wash and thought they were still excellent.

    These were so very quick & easy to make. I had some hot/warm as is and the rest I cut through with a sharp knife & filled with some garlic & herb cream cheese and served them cold.

    Delicious! I made these for my DS to take to a meeting. I love recipes using puff pastry, I sprinkled half with a little cooked Italian sausage meat in the middle. So good, thanks BD for another great recipe!...Kitten
