Sesame Puff Pastry Bites (Easy Cheese Puff Pastry Recipe)
These sesame puff pastry bites are filled with melted cheese and red pepper flakes, brushed with diluted molasses, topped with sesame seeds, and baked until golden and flaky.
Ingredients
Instructions
- Place the cheese over one puff pastry sheet and sprinkle with red pepper flakes. Cover with a second puff pastry sheet.
- Press the top and bottom puff pastry sheets together gently so the cheese filling stays enclosed.
- Cut the filled puff pastry into 6 equal pieces, keeping the edges as sealed as possible.
- Arrange the puff pastry pieces on a parchment-lined baking tray and brush the tops evenly with the slightly diluted molasses.
- Sprinkle the tops generously with sesame seeds so they stick to the molasses-coated surface.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C (390°F) for 15–20 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed, deeply golden, and crisp.
- Serve the sesame puff pastry bites while they are still warm and flaky, with the cheese soft and melted inside.
