Anything made with puff pastry is pure magic. Have you ever had it? I’m sure you have. Ever had a “Toaster Strudel”? An apple turnover? A palmier? A Danish pastry? A chicken pot pie? All of these sweet desserts and savoury indulgences are made using what I like to call the 8th world wonder, puff pastry. Puff pastry is made out of hundreds of layers of fat and flour dough. When it gets baked the fat/butter melts, and the liquid evaporates creating pockets of air (which makes it oh so flaky!) and it rises to its full and beautiful vertical potential.
These heart-shaped fruit puff pastries are perfect for your Valentines Day breakfast, brunch, or dessert! This buttery, flaky puff pastry filled with your favourite preserves is best served warm and drizzled with vanilla glaze. Store in a sealed container at room-temperature.
