Directions:
Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Prepare the Puff Pastry:
Roll out the puff pastry slightly on a floured surface to even the thickness.
Sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly over the entire pastry sheet.
Spread the crumbled bacon on top of the cheese, distributing evenly.
Roll and Slice:
Starting from one edge, tightly roll the pastry into a log.
Use a sharp knife to slice the roll into 1-inch pieces.
Assemble:
Place the slices cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each piece.
Brush the tops with beaten egg for a golden finish.
Sprinkle with black pepper and paprika, if desired.
Bake:
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden and puffed.
Serve:
Let the pastries cool slightly before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley or chives, if desired.
Serving Suggestions:
Serve warm as a savory breakfast treat.
Pair with a side of scrambled eggs or fresh fruit for a complete meal.
Offer as a party appetizer alongside a dipping sauce like ranch or marinara.
Add to a charcuterie board for a touch of flaky indulgence.
Enjoy with a bowl of creamy soup for a comforting lunch.
Cooking Tips:
Use pre-cooked bacon to save time, or fry it to your preferred crispiness.
For extra flavor, sprinkle a pinch of garlic powder or Italian seasoning over the filling.
Keep the puff pastry chilled before baking for the best puff.
If the rolls lose shape while cutting, chill the log for 10 minutes before slicing.
