Surely you have already seen on the Internet or on sale puffs in the form of such flowers - a square at the base, and like 4 petals on top. If you still don’t know how to cut the dough in order to get just such an appearance of the finished product, then you are welcome to look into my today’s recipe! ????

And if you want experiments with form then you can use another MK from the recipe. To whom the stars, to whom, again, the flowers are not the point. The main thing is that it is beautiful and tasty! ????

stuffing you can use any - sweet or salty and in different variations: berries, fruits, jam, cottage cheese, vegetables, meat, etc. Put anything, only in moderation, because open puffs, and puff pastry is airy. Therefore, you should not be zealous with the amount of filling! ????

Well, let's go twist and turn our flowers! ????

Ingredients for puff pastry with berry filling:

  • puff pastry without yeast - 500 g (2 layers of 250 g each)
  • blackcurrant - 1 cup
  • sugar - 8 tsp + some for sprinkling
  • sunflower oil for greasing the baking sheet - 2 tbsp.

Formation of puffs:

Before proceeding with the test, I prepared powdered sugar. I stopped buying it - I do it myself, because it's so simple and, compared to the store version, it's also cheap.

So, I poured sugar into the chopper (I always do it for the future, and not at once).

Grinded at maximum speed for a few seconds. Powder is ready! You can pour it into any container for storage (it is better if it is with a lid) - a sugar bowl or a convenient jar.

Now puff yeast-free dough. When it unfrozen(usually 40 minutes at room temperature is enough for this), you can start working with it.

Reservoir weighing 250 g rolled out to a square shape. From it I will make 4 puffs.

She cut the layer with a sharp knife crosswise into 4 equal squares.

In each square I made 4 "corners" - stepping back from the edge 1-1.5cm made cuts, as in the photo. On the center of each side of the square should remain uncut areas.

I sprinkled 0.5 teaspoon of powdered sugar on each blank.

Then I laid out the berries (you can use both fresh and frozen).

Top again sprinkled with 0.5 tsp. powdered sugar. In total, I got 1 tsp each. for each layer. Of course, the amount of powder can be increased to taste.

Now lifted all 4 corners of the square and connected them together, in the center, carefully making a tuck(a slight pinch may unfold during baking).

I did the same with the second layer of dough. She laid the puffs on a greased baking sheet. Baked for 15-20 minutes at 220"C.

Finished puffs sprinkled with powdered sugar on top.

I love this berry! How much taste, beauty, benefit in blackcurrant! ;) And it turned out elegant! :)
