Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine half the sugar (1/4 cup) with the lemon zest and basil. Stir thoroughly with a fork until evenly combined.
- Sprinkle a cutting board or other work surface with the remaining sugar (1/4 cup). Place the sheet of thawed puff pastry on top of the sugar and roll it out into an approximately 9” x 11” rectangle.
- Sprinkle the top of the dough evenly with the sugar, lemon zest, and basil mixture.
- Starting from a long edge, gently fold the dough toward the center. Repeat from the opposite side. Fold the dough toward the center one additional time on each side.
- Wrap the dough in plastic wrap or waxed paper and place it in the freezer for about 20 minutes until firm but not frozen. Do not discard the sugar left on your board. You’ll need it later in the process.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Prepare a baking sheet by lining with parchment paper.
- Working quickly so that the dough remains as cold as possible, cut crosswise slices about 1/2” thick. Dip each cut side into the remaining sugar left on your work surface and place the slices 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 12 to 17 minutes or until the bottom sides of each palmier are deeply golden. Carefully flip each palmier using a spatula and bake until crisp, about 5 more minutes.
- Transfer the palmiers to a wire rack to cool completely.
