Title: Pesto Puff Pastry Trees
Categories: Christmas, Snack, Vegan
Yield: 6 Servings
1 Puff pastry sheet
- (about 30x30 cm / 12x12")
4 tb Basil pesto
2 tb Sun-dried tomato pesto;
- for the star topping
- (optional)
6 Wooden skewers or
- cocktail sticks
These pesto puff pastry trees are an easy festive snack that doubles
as table decor. Crispy, golden, and full of flavor, they`re perfect
for parties, grazing boards, or pre-dinner bites with minimal effort.
Preheat the oven to 190?C (fan) (375?F).
Roll out the puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface. Cut into
strips about 2.5 cm (1") wide.
Spread a thin layer of basil pesto along each strip.
Starting from one end of a strip, fold the pastry in a zig-zag
pattern to form a triangle shape that gets smaller towards the top,
resembling a tree. Gently press the folds to keep them in place.
Carefully thread a wooden skewer or cocktail stick vertically through
the center of each folded tree to hold it together. Place them on a
lined baking tray standing upright.
Make Little Stars (optional):
Using a small cookie cutter or knife, cut tiny star shapes from
leftover puff pastry. Brush them with sun-dried tomato pesto and
gently press onto the top of each tree.
Bake in the oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until golden and puffed.
Allow to cool slightly before serving.
