Puff pastry pies in the oven

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 55 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to bake puff pastry pies in the oven? Prepare the ingredients according to the list. Thaw the finished puff pastry a little if it was frozen. To do this, leave the dough for half an hour at room temperature. On a floured work surface, roll out the dough a little; you don’t need to roll it out very thin, otherwise the pies won’t turn out airy and flaky.

2. STEP 2

   

   Absolutely any filling is suitable for this dough: boiled chicken, mushrooms, meat, cottage cheese, meat, herbs, cheese. I baked pies with cottage cheese, they turn out very aromatic, tasty and filling, an excellent option for a snack between main meals.

3. STEP 3

   

   Cut the dough into squares of equal size. Turn on the oven to 200 degrees in advance.

4. STEP 4

   

   It is better to use natural cottage cheese, it is healthier, but contains more calories. If you wish, you can take cottage cheese with a low fat content, the main thing is that it is fresh and of high quality. Add sugar, vanillin to a bowl with cottage cheese and beat in a chicken egg. The egg is needed so that the filling is not liquid and does not start leaking out when baking the pies.

5. STEP 5

   

   Mix everything until you obtain a homogeneous curd mass. If your cottage cheese is grainy and dry, you can add a tablespoon of cream or sour cream. In this case, beat the curd mass with a blender to make the filling more tender.

6. STEP 6

   

   Place some curd filling on one half of the dough square. The amount of filling depends on the size of the squares, but it is important that during baking it does not start leaking out of the pies onto the baking sheet. It is better to make small pies; they turn out more beautiful and neat in appearance.

7. STEP 7

   

   Seal the edges of the dough together to form a triangle or any other shape. The edges need to be sealed well so that the juice from the filling does not start leaking onto the baking sheet. You can do this with a fork.

8. STEP 8

   

   Grease a baking tray or other baking dish with oil and lay out the pies. Brush them with beaten egg yolk. Place the puff pastries in the oven preheated to 200 degrees for 25-30 minutes. Remove the finished pies from the oven, let them cool slightly and serve with tea, coffee or cocoa. Bon appetit!

If you want to cook something quick, simple and tasty for tea, try puff pastry pies in the oven! I highly recommend it for cooking 😘. For the filling, I used chicken fillet, which I had previously baked, and dill. Finely chopped the fillet, chopped the greens. For juiciness, added a little chicken broth and stirred. The pies are good both hot and cold! Cook with pleasure and make your loved ones happy 😊And thank you very much to the author for the wonderful baking idea!
