Turkey Cranberry Puff Pastry Bites: An Incredible Ultimate Recipe


  • Author: Lauren Baker
  • Total Time: 40 minutes

Ingredients

– 1 package (17.3 oz) frozen puff pastry (2 sheets), thawed
– 2 cups cooked turkey, shredded or diced
– 1 cup cranberry sauce (homemade or store-bought)
– 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
– 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
– 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
– Optional: Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)


Instructions

Follow these simple steps to create your Turkey Cranberry Puff Pastry Bites:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Prepare the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked turkey, cranberry sauce, cream cheese, dried thyme, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
3. Roll Out the Pastry: On a lightly floured surface, roll out each sheet of puff pastry to smooth out creases. Cut each sheet into squares, about 3 inches in size.
4. Fill the Pastry: Place a tablespoon of the turkey filling in the center of each square.
5. Seal the Bites: Fold the corners of the pastry over the filling to create a pocket. Pinch the edges to seal tightly, ensuring no filling escapes during baking.
6. Apply Egg Wash: Brush the tops of the pastry bites with the beaten egg to give them a golden color when baked.
7. Bake: Place the bites on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes or until they are puffed and golden brown.
8. Cool Slightly: Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes before serving.
9. Garnish: If desired, sprinkle with fresh parsley for added color and flavor.
