These mini pastries, easily made with a rich filling of feta, almonds, chives and honey, are perfect as rich appetizer or snack! So quick and easy to make, they are a true savior if you have a big party to host!
I love how balanced these pastries are: the crunchy almonds up level the texture, while the honey dims the sharp, tangy flavor of feta (which may not be loved by everyone).
They also look very pretty, don’t they 🙂 lastly, the chives give a touch of freshness, which is needed for the overall richness of the pastry. Let me know if you make them in the comments below 🙂
If you are not a fan of almonds, you can swap them with hazelnuts for extra sweetness. Walnuts or cashews should also work 😉 want to add a splash of color instead? Then go for some tangy jams or cranberry sauce if you have any left!
happy baking and buon appetito!

Ingredients

1 puff pastry roll
150g feta mashed with a fork
1 tbsp honey
chives a few springs, finely chopped
salt and pepper a pinch
1 tbsp almonds roughly chopped
almond flakes to sprinkle on top
1 egg

Instructions

Turn the oven to 180C.
Take out of the fridge the puff pastry to warm up.
In a bowl, add all the ingredients minus the egg and flaked almonds.
Beat up the egg, and take out 1 tbsp to set aside for the egg brush.
Add the remaining of the egg to the bowl with the other ingredients.
Mix well.
Roll out the pastry and add the mix.
Close the pastry by rolling it onto itself from the longer side, making a long tight tube.
With a sharp knife, slice it (I made cuts every 2 cm, obtaining a total of 10 rolls).
Place them onto a baking tray lined with baking paper.
Brush them with the leftover egg, and top with the flaked almonds.
Place in the oven and cook until they become golden, about 25 min.
Once ready, let them cool off before serving.
Enjoy!
