Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup fresh broccoli florets, finely chopped
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Instructions

Creating Delicious Broccoli Cheese Puffs is straightforward if you follow these simple steps:

  1. Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  1. Prepare Broccoli: Steam the chopped broccoli for about 3-4 minutes until it’s tender but still vibrant green. Allow it to cool, then chop it finely.
  1. Make Filling: In a bowls, combine the steamed broccoli, shredded cheddar cheese, cream cheese, grated Parmesan, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until fully combined.
  1. Roll Out Pastry: Unroll the thawed puff pastry onto a lightly floured surface. Cut the pastry into squares or circles, about 3-4 inches in size.
  1. Fill Pastry: Place a tablespoon of the broccoli and cheese filling in the center of each pastry piece.
  1. Seal the Puffs: Fold the pastry over the filling to create a triangle or a half-moon shape. Press the edges firmly to seal. You can use a fork to crimp the edges for a decorative touch.
  1. Egg Wash: Brush the tops of the puffs with the beaten egg to create a golden color when baked.
  1. Bake: Place the filled puffs on the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until they are puffed and golden brown.
  1. Cool Slightly: Once baked, remove the puffs from the oven and allow them to cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.

These steps will guide you in creating these incredible puffs without a hitch!
