Ingredients
Main ingredients
- 300 grams Puff pastry sheets or Rough Puff Pastry
Toppings
- ¼ cup chopped capsicum (bell pepper), any color
- ¼ cup chopped onions
- ¼ to ⅓ cup grated processed cheese or pizza cheese or add as required
- Pizza Sauce - as required
- dried oregano or pizza seasoning or mixed herbs, add as required
Instructions
Preparation
- Before you begin, making the pizza puffs, preheat your oven to 250 degrees Celsius/480 degrees Fahrenheit for at least 15 minutes.
- If you used the puff pastry recipe, which I have posted on blog, then slice the puff pastry in three equal parts. Take just one part and wrap the remaining two parts in a foil or cling film and refrigerate or freeze.
- If using store brought puff pastry dough, then follow the instructions on the pack.
- Sprinkle some flour on the dough and begin to roll.
- Roll evenly to get a ¼ to ½ inch thick base.
- Using a cookie cutter or a lid from a bottle, cut rounds in the rolled puff pasty dough.
- Remove the dough from the edges. Roll them and then use it for making another batch of pizza puffs.
- Gently remove and place each round in a baking tray.
- Spread a thin layer of pizza sauce on the rounds. You can either use store brought or homemade pizza sauce.
- Top the roundels with some chopped onions and chopped capsicum (green bell pepper). You can also add chopped olives, steamed corn, sautéed mushrooms.
- Now sprinkle some grated processed cheese or pizza cheese. Also sprinkle some dried oregano. You can add a mix of dried herbs too.
Cup of Yum
Baking pizza puff
- Keep the tray in the oven. Bake at 250 degrees Celsius/480 degrees Fahrenheit for 15 to 20 minutes till the cheese on top is melted or light golden and the puff pastry rounds have also got golden and crisp.
- Do check the base and it should be golden.
- Let them cool for a few minutes. If not serving immediately, then place them on a wired rack.
- Serve Pizza Puffs hot or warm or at room temperature.
Notes
- I have used homemade pizza sauce. Even tomato sauce or tomato passata can be used or you can include your favorite sauce.
- Your choice of veggies or herbs can be added.
