Ingredients
- 2 sheets Frozen puff pastry sheets
- 100 grams Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 50 grams Unsalted butter
- 20 grams All-purpose flour (for dusting)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2
Thaw the puff pastry sheets according to the package instructions until they are pliable but still cool to the touch.
Step 3
In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon until evenly combined. Set aside.
Step 4
Melt the unsalted butter in a microwave or on the stovetop, and let it cool slightly.
Step 5
Lightly dust your work surface with all-purpose flour and roll out each puff pastry sheet to smooth out any creases and ensure an even thickness.
Step 6
Brush a thin, even layer of melted butter over one side of the first puff pastry sheet.
Step 7
Sprinkle half of the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly over the buttered surface, pressing gently so the mixture adheres to the pastry.
Step 8
Fold the puff pastry sheet in half lengthwise, then cut it into strips approximately 2 cm (¾ inch) wide.
Step 9
Twist each strip gently and place it on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 cm (¾ inch) of space between each piece.
Step 10
Repeat the process with the second puff pastry sheet using the remaining melted butter and cinnamon sugar mixture.
Step 11
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the puffs are golden brown and crisp.
Step 12
Remove from the oven and let the cinnamon sugar puffs cool on a wire rack for 5-10 minutes before serving.
