Instructions
- Open the Medjool dates using a knife and remove the pit. Place them in a measuring cup and add in ¼ cup hot water and the cinnamon.
- Blend using an immersion blender. Alternatively, you can do this using a regular blender.
- Roll out the puff pastry and spread the date mixture on top. Top with chopped walnuts and pieces of the goat cheese.
- Place the second puff pastry on the dates and walnuts. Gently press and seal the sides.
- Using a pizza cutter or a sharp knife, cut the pastry into ½ inch wide strips.
- Grab the two ends of each strip and twist in opposite sides. Place on a clean surface and twist to form a swirl pattern. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Refrigerate for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- After 15 minutes, brush the pastries with egg and bake them for 20 minutes until they are golden and flaky.
Notes
- Store the leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days at room temperature or 5 days in the fridge.
