Description
An incredibly flaky and beautiful bakery-style dessert featuring a crisp puff pastry crust filled with a jammy, sweet mixed berry center.
Ingredients
1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
3 cups mixed berries, frozen or fresh
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon lemon zest
2 tablespoons maple syrup
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 egg for egg wash
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Toss mixed berries with lemon juice, lemon zest, maple syrup, and cornstarch in a bowl until coated.
3. Roll out the thawed puff pastry sheet slightly on a floured surface and cut into four equal squares.
4. Score a half-inch border around each square, poke the centers with a fork, and place on the baking sheet.
5. Spoon the fruit mixture evenly into the center of each square, keeping it inside the scored border.
6. Brush the outer borders lightly with the whisked egg wash and bake for 18 to 20 minutes until puffed and golden brown.
Notes
Keep your puff pastry ice-cold until assembly to ensure the best rise. Docking the center with a fork is essential to keep the middle from puffing up under the fruit.
