What is it about puff pastry, but bringing an appetizer platter of buttery, flaky bites to a party makes you the most popular guest. Puff pastry, stuffed with gooey cheese, is the perfect appetizer due to its fluffy crust.
– 3 slices bacon, chopped– 1 puff pastry sheet, thawed– 4 ounces halloumi cheese, cut into ½ -inch piece– 2 tablespoons teaspoons hot honey– 6 dates, chopped– 1 egg– 1 tablespoon water– ¼ cup pomegranate arils, for topping
Ingredient
Direction
Bake at 400 degrees Fahrenheit. In a skillet over medium heat, add the bacon. Crispy bacon bits are achieved by browning them.
1
Apply cooking spray to a mini muffin tin. The puff pastry sheet should be unfolded and rolled into a 10-inch square.
2
Cut into twenty-four 2-inch squares. With the corners facing up, press the squares firmly into the muffin tin.
3
Put a chunk of halloumi in every cup. Combine the halloumi with the bacon. Fill each cup with dates.
4
Make these sweet and salty pastry puffs right before serving, as the puff pastry should only be thawed 40 minutes beforehand.
5
Pour a small amount of hot honey into each cup. Brush the tops of the puff pastries with the egg and water mixture.
6
Bake for 15 minutes, or until the inside is melted and golden brown. Add pomegranate arils on top.
