The world of sweets is a whole galaxy. There are star clusters in it, large and small planets, countries, regions, cities and even hidden streets, consisting of their secrets, secrets and bold experiments. And the good old culinary traditions live there. Traveling around big planets and quiet streets is always exciting. Even if it seems that you have already been here, and seen everything, and tried everything. There is always something for new discoveries.
Today we will travel to the Puff Pastry Baking star system. Let's find a planet in this system "Sweet pastries from ready-made dough." And our tour has begun!
The main goal of our journey is to find recipes so that relatives and friends will be amazed by our talent and recognize us as the Great Culinary. But at the same time, to make each delicacy so that it takes us very little time, literally a teaspoon, and a pinch of strength, and so that for the filling there is all the simplest and often found in our bins.
Although we will prepare our culinary masterpieces from ready-made dough, for reference, I want to clarify that there are a huge number of varieties of puff pastry: yeast, French yeast-free, Danish, unleavened, soda, etc. When buying ready-made dough in the store, check. This will help you find the right recipe. And I will try to suggest recipes for different types of dough.
Yeast-free puff pastry
Eastern sweetness
The secret of this recipe is the combination of nut-honey filling and crispy dough. Everything is simple, but in the end the dish resembles an exotic oriental sweetness.
Ingredients:
- Yeast-free puff pastry - 1 pack (500g);
- Nuts - 400 gr (you can take any, to your taste);
- Honey - 2-3 tablespoons;
- Sugar - 1 tbsp;
- Butter - 50 gr;
- Egg (yolk) - 1 pc.;
- Cinnamon - for dusting.
- Try to chop the nuts finely and fry a little. If you use walnuts, it is better not to fry - they will be bitter. Just chop.
- While the nuts are hot, mix them with honey and sugar. Add cinnamon. Mix everything well and let it brew a little so that the nuts are saturated with the aroma of cinnamon and honey.
- The dough for the convenience of working with it, divide into several parts.
Roll out each part well. The thickness should not be more than 5 mm. - Before laying out the filling, grease each layer with melted butter.
- Put the filling and spread evenly over the dough.
- Here attention! Layers of dough can be stacked one on top to make a pie or cakes if the pie is cut into pieces before baking. But you can twist the rolls. Each hostess decides for herself, taking into account her mood and family preferences.
- We roll the roll. Grease the top of the roll with beaten egg yolk.
- Bake rolls at a temperature of 250 degrees for 20 minutes.
Due to the puff pastry, nuts and honey, the roll will look like baklava. But for the manufacture of baklava, a different dough is used.
Apple puffs
These are open buns. That is, apples on top will decorate them.
Ingredients:
- Dough - 300 g;
- Apples - 2 pcs.;
- Jam - apricot or jam - 60-70 g;
- Egg - 1 yolk;
- Water - 30 g.
- We prepare the dough. Defrost and roll it out. We cut into 4 parts, each of which is a rectangle 15 by 10 cm.
- Peel apples, remove seeds. Cut into thin (no more than 0.5 cm thick) slices.
- Dilute the jam with water and put on fire for 2 minutes. Then we pass it through a sieve.
- We cover the baking sheet with parchment and lay out the blanks on it.
- We retreat 1.5 cm from each edge, put apples overlapping on each blank in the middle. Lubricate them with jam. And grease the dough with yolk.
- We put in an oven preheated to 180 degrees for 10-15 minutes.
- Lubricate the finished buns with jam.
Unleavened dough (phyllo)
We are all familiar with pasties. Did you know that this type of pies belongs to the great family - burek or burekas. And in this family there is one "careless relative." And he is negligent because he is ... sweet. Yes Yes! Boureki exclusively with savory filling. And only the Greek galaktoboureko somehow became a dessert.
Ingredients:
- Puff pastry - 450 g (10 sheets);
- Sl. butter - 250 g
For cream:
- Semolina - 150-170g;
- Milk - 0.5 l;
- Sugar - 250 g;
- Sl. oil - 50 g;
- Eggs - 4 pcs.;
- Vanilla.
For syrup:
- Water - 400-450 g;
- Sugar - 800 g;
- Lemon zest - from 1 pc.;
- Honey - 2 tbsp. l.;
- Vanillin.
- Syrup is boiled first. Pour the dish only with the cooled syrup.
Mix all ingredients (except honey) for syrup. Bring to a boil while stirring. When sugar dissolves completely, set aside, add honey. - Now you need to prepare the cream:
Separate the yolks from the whites.
Beat whites (50g) with sugar until peaks. - Beat 50 g with yolks until thick.
- Gradually adding the meringue to the yolks, gently mix everything.
- Boil the milk with the rest of the sugar.
- While stirring, gradually add semolina and vanilla.
- Reduce the heat under the pan and cook until the consistency of thick sour cream.
- When the semolina is cooked, remove from the stove and add oil.
- Mix semolina and egg mixture. Stir so that foam does not form.
- Grease a baking sheet with oil.
Lay out 5 sheets of dough gradually, sprinkling them with melted butter.
Interesting! Such subtlety as drizzling rather than oiling the sheets makes the dough crispier.
- Pour the cream over the dough. And on top of the remaining 4-5 sheets. And spray them again.
If the oil remains, pour it on top, after making small cuts in the upper layers of the dough. - Bake 60 min. at 160 degrees.
- Drizzle hot pie with cold syrup and let it soak
This is a kind of galaktoburek. Since a real Greek dessert uses a different dough, not filo.

Ingredients:
Cooking:
You can use different ways of "packing" chocolates.
The main thing! Retreat from the chocolate bar to the left and right, top and bottom by 0.5 cm.
There is another option for folding - as in . I'll copy a photo from a nearby recipe to show this principle. Only instead of cherries - pieces of chocolate. If you briefly describe the method, it turns out like this: roll out the dough into a circle, divide it into equal triangles, put the filling on the wide edge and roll it up, starting from the wide edge.
Preheat the oven to 180 degrees. Lubricate the baking sheet. We put chocolate rolls on it. And send it to the oven for 25-30 minutes.

We are preparing:
Oven - preheat to 200 degrees;
Dough - defrost;
Baking tray - cover with parchment paper;

Mix the minced meat with finely chopped onion and lay this filling in an even layer on the dough, leaving about 10 centimeters free at the edges. Season with spices, sprinkle with grated cheese on top, roll tightly into a roll, pinching the edges and making punctures with a fork.

During this time, chop the nuts and add them to the fruit. Put sugar, cinnamon to taste, mix and cook for another 3 minutes. We roll out the finished puff pastry into a layer, lay out the filling, evenly distribute it and roll up the roll.
We cover the baking sheet with baking paper, or coat it well with oil. We spread our roll on it and put it in a hot oven. We bake the delicacy for 35 minutes, and then carefully take it out, cool it a little and cut the puff roll with nuts into portions.

Roll with poppy seeds from puff pastry
Ingredients:
- puff pastry - 500 g;
- egg - 2 pcs.;
- poppy - 2 tbsp.;
- sugar - 2 tbsp.;
- water - 0.5 tbsp.
Cooking
So, we start cooking the roll with the filling. We wash the poppy in advance, transfer it to a deep metal bowl, fill it with water, put it on a weak fire and bring to a boil. Cook for 5 minutes, then remove from the stove, cover with a lid and leave it to infuse for about 10 more minutes.
After that, we discard the poppy seeds on a sieve, allowing the remaining water to drain. We again shift it into a bowl, cover it with sugar, or pour over with honey. Mix everything thoroughly and pass 2-3 times through a meat grinder. Next, we move on to the formation of puff rolls. We pre-thaw the finished dough, after which we roll it into a thin layer. Boil water in a separate saucepan, pour a little sugar into it and wait for it to dissolve completely. We coat the rolled dough with the prepared syrup and spread the poppy seed filling evenly over the entire surface with a dense layer on top.
We roll everything into a roll and cut into small pieces. Preheat the oven to about 200 degrees. Sprinkle a baking sheet with cold water and lay the rolls on it. Separate the yolks from the proteins, beat the yolks with a fork and grease each piece. We send the baking sheet to the oven and bake the delicacy for 30 minutes.
Hello my dear chefs! I am writing to you not for the first time. I really like your recipes. Thank you very much for the tremendous work you are doing. My family is very fond of puff pastry rolls, I have been collecting recipes for such rolls for a long time. True, I have already accumulated a lot, but I didn’t come across a puff pastry roll with apricot jam and almonds. Now my piggy bank has replenished, I will definitely bake this yummy. By the way, I have already prepared sweet rolls from instant puff pastry. Satisfied with the result. It turns out no worse than from puff. Thanks again for your work - very helpful. Every day I go to your page and always find something new for myself.
Sweet puff pastry roll with apricot jam and almonds - that's cool. I expected everything from you, but this ... You might think that someone does not know how to make a sweet puff pastry roll. My 8 year old son does this every week. You killed me.
This is a recipe for my son, he loves these pastries. I will definitely cook it, I think it is very tasty. And it’s easy to prepare, and you can buy it from a store-bought one, and with other jams. Keeps well.
Hi! my name is Sergey. I made a puff pastry roll with apricot jam. Turned out fine, just what I wanted. Take the dough ready. Fast, easy, delicious. In general, I like your lessons. You always explain everything clearly. We clearly follow the recipe and everything is fine, convenient. I love this kind of cake.
Hello, dear Emma Isaakovna. I am your student from school 249. I don't know if you remember me or not, my name is Tonya, my school name is Yakovleva. I love you very much. You taught us to be human, first and foremost. Of course, you taught us physics, and it was useful to me personally in my life. But first of all, a personal example of intelligence and decency. When we were children, we did not understand this, and you did not get tired of showing us what real human relationships are. So, we gradually absorbed it, and I can say with confidence, since I personally know almost all of your students, we are all first of all decent people and appreciate decency in people. Thank you and regards. Well, when I suddenly accidentally saw you on the Internet, I was just stunned. Learning to cook from Emma Isaakovna - I could not even dream of such a thing. I remember how we gathered at your house as a whole class and cooked manti, sometimes dumplings, all together, then we all ate together - these are unforgettable moments. Emma Isaakovna, I am happy that I found you. All our guys say hello to you.
Cool recipe, but I would simplify everything even more. I bought dough and jam. The dough, already rolled out, was smeared with jam, sprinkled with nuts, rolled up and into the oven. Pulled out, cooled, ate. That's the whole story. And even better, I immediately bought a ready-made roll and ate it. But this is so, jokes, but in general, offset, everything is as it should be.
Sweet puff pastry roll is great, but I don’t know if it will bake or not. Need to try. Although on the other hand, if Grandma Emma gives a recipe, then everything will be fine. Everything that I cooked according to their recipes with a bang. It is interesting, but if you make such a roll, but not with a sweet, but with a savory filling, well, for example, with cheese or fish, it will also probably be delicious. Although, I prefer sweet puff pastry rolls.
Listen, such a good day turned out, sunny, spring. We walked all day in the forest, had a great time, but we were a little tired. I come home, I thought I'll check the mail and go to sleep. But it was not there, there was a New recipe from Emma's grandmother - Apricot puff pastry roll. I looked and thought: there is puff pastry, there is jam, there are almonds, I will go to cook - tomorrow I will have something to drink tea with. I cooked it, waited half an hour to cool down, and ate it with my husband, delicious. Thank you my dear for your concern.
Puff pastry roll with minced meat looks incredibly appetizing, and the flavor is beyond words! It is not at all difficult to prepare such a roll, because the recipe uses ready-made puff pastry, ideal even for those who are “you” with pastries. Moreover, you can take both yeast puff pastry and yeast-free, as such, you will not feel the difference in taste, in both cases the roll is prepared in the same way. The only thing is that with yeast puff pastry the outer layer of the roll will be more airy.
Ingredients
- 500 g pork (can be replaced with beef)
- package of ready-made puff pastry without yeast (500 g)
- 1 egg
- 1 bulb
- 3 tablespoons sour cream
- some flour
- salt, pepper, sunflower oil
How to cook puff pastry roll with minced meat
Grind the meat into minced meat along with the onion, peeled and cut into several pieces. Salt and pepper it well, mix with your hands. Salt will need about a teaspoon, and pepper - a quarter teaspoon.
Then turn on the oven to heat up to 180 degrees. At the right time, it will just reach the required temperature.
Fry the minced meat until half cooked in a pan, adding a couple of tablespoons of sunflower oil.
Defrost the finished puff pastry. There were four layers in my pack of dough, which I have to combine into one rectangular layer.
Sprinkle the work surface with a small layer of flour and spread the layers of dough in such a way that each subsequent one slightly covers the previous one. Then we will go over the dough with a rolling pin and fasten it.
Roll out the dough to the size we need, I got about 30 cm by 40 cm.
Then we put our filling on top of the dough and evenly distribute it, not reaching the edges by 3-4 cm. Lightly grease the minced meat layer with sour cream, this will make the filling more tender and juicy.
We form a roll. We bend inward the long edges of the dough and twist the roll (the seam will be at the bottom).
Then beat one egg and grease the entire surface of the future roll with it.
Hello!
Do you love fairy tales? I love it and even now sometimes re-read it. Basically, these are fairy tales by Scandinavian writers, for example, Astrid Lindgren or Tove Jansson. The first is known for its Carlson, and the second is the mother of the Moomin trolls. Do you know what else I love about fairy tales, besides incredible adventures? Food Description! Festive tables littered with all sorts of things and just ordinary sandwiches, which are very tasty to read about. Well, for example:
“Close your eyes while I play tablecloth.” 
Tommy and Annika closed their eyes. They heard Pippi lift the lid of the basket and rustle the paper.
One, two, three - look! Pippi screamed.
Tommy and Annika opened their eyes and screamed with delight when they saw all the supplies that Pippi had laid out on the stone. Two huge sandwiches, one with meatballs, the other with ham, a whole mountain of sugar sprinkled, a few slices of smoked sausage and three small pineapple puddings. After all, Pippi learned to cook from the cook on the ship.
Perhaps my passion for it was barely born thanks to the right books I read in childhood.
What comes to your mind as an association with the word "fairy tales"?
Maybe Russian folk tales? (I had this book as a child). If so, then this has a lot to do with today's recipe. Because for it I used Morozko puff pastry, remember this tale?
Today I will tell you how to cook a puff pastry roll stuffed with mashed potatoes - a delicious, beautiful and satisfying dish, suitable for both a regular meal and a festive table.
For a delicious roll with potato filling, we need:
- 1 block of puff pastry (1000 gr)
- 1 kg potatoes
- 1 large onion
- 4 tbsp vegetable or butter
- half a bunch of dill
- salt, pepper to taste
- a little flour for rolling out the dough
- 1 egg for brushing
- sesame or black cumin seeds for sprinkling
 | Puff pastry must first be removed from the freezer and thawed. While it is thawing, prepare the mashed potatoes for the filling. To do this, finely chop the onion and fry in oil. Potatoes need to be peeled, cut into small cubes and boiled in salted water. When the potatoes are cooked, mash them, add the fried onion, finely chopped dill, salt and pepper to taste. |
 | Well, the filling is ready for us, now let's proceed to the puff pastry, which by this moment (and it will take about an hour) has already been defrosted. Sprinkle the surface of the table or rolling board with flour and begin to roll out a layer of dough, constantly turning it in different directions until it becomes twice as large. In this case, the thickness is obtained no more than two millimeters. |
 | Let's start making rolls. To do this, spread the filling on a rolled out layer of puff pastry, about 1 centimeter thick and roll it into a roll, carefully pinching the edges and ends. In total, you will get four large puff pastry rolls with potato filling. We spread them on a baking sheet covered with baking paper, prick with a fork in several places - so that the rolls do not crack during baking. |
 | Brush our stuffed rolls with egg and sprinkle with sesame seeds or black cumin (I used both). We bake for about half an hour at a temperature of 180-200 degrees. |
