Description

This version of savory palmiers involves only four ingredients: store-bought puff pastry, goat cheese, dried cranberries, and pistachios. That’s it. The active prep time is less than 10 minutes, but do remember to leave time for the uncooked palmiers to rest in the fridge. They can be made ahead and stored in an airtight container or frozen.

Ingredients

  • 1 whole Sheet Of Purchased Puff Pastry, Thawed
  • 2 ounces, weight Goat Cheese (chevre), Room Temperature
  • ⅓ cups (slightly Packed) Dried Cranberries
  • ¼ cups Pistachios, Roughly Chopped

Preparation

Roll the puff pastry sheet into a rectangle that is at least 8 inches wide and no less than 1/8-inch thick. With the standard puff pastry sheets found in the grocery stores, you won’t have much rolling to do.

Spread goat cheese over the puff pastry and top with dried cranberries and pistachios. Using your hand, lightly press the cranberries and pistachios into the cheese. Roll each long end of the rectangle into the center. Chill for about 15 minutes.

Cut the roll crosswise into 1/8-inch slices and divide the palmiers between two baking sheets covered with parchment paper. Chill for at least 1 hour.

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Bake the palmiers until they are puffed and light golden brown, 6 to 8 minutes. Quickly flip the palmiers and place back in the oven, switching positions of the baking sheets. Bake for an additional 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer the palmiers to a cooling rack and cool completely before serving.

Make ahead: The palmiers can be baked and then store in the fridge in an airtight container for 2 to 3 days, or frozen. Before serving, place unthawed palmiers on a baking sheet in a 350 degree F oven for 5 minutes.

Made these for a party and thought they were really tasty and looked really pretty on the serving tray. I think next time I will use more goat cheese as it sort of melted into the pastry.(maybe it was supposed to). would definitely make them again.
