Ingredients
Scale
Dough and Filling
- 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 egg, beaten
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
- Prepare Puff Pastry: Roll out the thawed puff pastry sheet on a flat, clean surface. Use a pastry brush to evenly coat the surface with the melted unsalted butter, which adds flavor and helps the fillings adhere.
- Add Fillings: Sprinkle the minced garlic evenly over the buttered pastry, followed by the shredded mozzarella, grated Parmesan, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Distribute everything evenly to ensure each rollup has a balanced taste.
- Form Rollups: Starting from one long edge, roll the puff pastry tightly into a log. Once rolled, use a sharp knife to cut the log crosswise into 1-inch slices to create individual rollups.
- Prepare for Baking: Place each rollup cut side down on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops of the rollups with the beaten egg to give them a glossy, golden finish after baking.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the puff pastry is puffed up and golden brown. Remove from oven and serve warm for best flavor.
Notes
- For extra flavor, sprinkle fresh herbs like parsley or basil over the rollups after baking.
- Serve with marinara sauce or your favorite dipping sauce on the side.
- Ensure the puff pastry is thoroughly thawed before rolling to avoid cracking.
- Use a sharp knife to make clean cuts in the dough to prevent squashing the layers.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container and reheat in the oven to maintain crispiness.
