Something magical has happened. I baked these sweet treats from scratch and they weren't a complete disaster taste truly fabulous. These are my sweet take on the old parmesan twists. I experimented with a few flavours but I think the possibilities are endless? I think?
Harry was positively thrilled with being able to taste test these. I think they're perfect for preschoolers and primary school aged children.
Ingredients
I used 1 sheet of pastry and made 8 twists (two of each flavour)
1 sheet of frozen puff pastry (salt and fat reduced)
1 egg white, lightly whisked
Caramelised banana
1/4 banana cut into strips
1 tsp brown sugar
1 tsp butter
Apple cinnamon
2 tbs apple puree (or apple sauce)
Sprinkling of cinnamon
Ricotta berry
3 raspberries
1 tbs ricotta
Nutella
1 tbs Nutella
Method
1/ Preheat your oven to 180oC and line a tray with baking paper.
2/ Cut the pastry square into 8 equal strips.
Caramelised banana
3/ Melt butter in a small frypan over medium. Add brown sugar and stir to dissolve. Add the slices of banana and cook for a few minutes, continue spooning sugar mixture over the banana.
4/ Place banana mixture along the strips of pastry. Holding both ends, twist the pastry until the spirals meet/cover the banana (around 3 twists). Brush the spiral with egg white.
5/ Bake in the oven for around 10 minutes or until golden.
Apple cinnamon
3/ Spoon the apple sauce onto the pastry strips. Sprinkle cinnamon over the top.
4/ Holding both ends, twist the pastry until the spirals meet (around 3 twists). Brush the spiral with egg white and sprinkle a bit more cinnamon.
5/ Bake in the oven for around 10 minutes or until golden.
Ricotta berry
3/ Combine the berries and ricotta in a small bowl. Spoon the mixture over the pastry strips.
4/ Holding both ends, twist the pastry until the spirals meet/enclose the berries (around 3 twists). Brush the spiral with egg white.
5/ Bake in the oven for around 10 minutes or until golden.
Nutella
3/ Spread the Nutella over the pastry strips.
4/ Holding both ends, twist the pastry until the spirals meet/cover the Nutella (around 3 twists). Brush the spiral with egg white.
5/ Bake in the oven for around 10 minutes or until golden.
