Description
Flaky, buttery Mushroom Puffs filled with a savory blend of mushrooms, onions, and garlic. Perfect as an appetizer or snack, these golden pastries are simple to make yet taste gourmet.
Ingredients
2 tablespoons salted butter
300 grams puff pastry (store-bought)
200 grams mushrooms, finely chopped
1 cup onion, finely chopped
1 tablespoon garlic, crushed
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 egg (for egg wash)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and garlic, and sauté until translucent.
- Stir in the mushrooms, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Cook until the mushrooms release their moisture and the mixture becomes slightly dry. Allow to cool for a few minutes.
- Roll out the puff pastry and cut into squares or desired shapes.
- Place a spoonful of the mushroom mixture in the center of each piece. Fold the pastry over and seal the edges firmly with a fork.
- Brush the tops with beaten egg for a glossy finish.
- Bake for 15–20 minutes or until golden and puffed.
- Serve warm as an appetizer or snack.
Notes
Ensure the filling is not too wet to prevent soggy pastry.
Add herbs like thyme or parsley for extra flavor.
Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5–7 minutes.
Can be frozen before or after baking.
