Puff pastry croissants with avocado and salmon are an appetizer easy to make and perfect for any occasion, even the most special and refined ones. Savory puff pastry croissants are also perfect for Christmas parties or to be served at a buffet or to accompany an aperitif. To prepare the puff pastry croissants, I used a round puff pastry and made 12 small croissants. I recommend making them small so they become crispy and the baking is perfect. If you wish, besides baking in the oven, you can cook the puff pastry croissants in an air fryer at 375°F for 12 minutes. The cooking time may vary depending on the type of air fryer you use. This is the AIR FRYER that I use. I recommend checking out 50 AIR FRYER RECIPES and all the air fryer recipes, you will surely find other delicious dishes to try.

How to prepare Puff Pastry Croissants with Avocado and Salmon

Let’s start preparing the Puff Pastry Croissants with Avocado and Salmon. Unroll the round puff pastry and cut it into 4 wedges, then each wedge into another 3 wedges,
roll each wedge, not too tightly, into the curved shape of a croissant and place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper,
brush with beaten egg
and sprinkle with sesame seeds, bake in a preheated static oven at 350°F for 20 minutes, they should be golden and beautifully puffed. You can cook the puff pastry croissants in an air fryer at 375°F for 12 minutes. When they are cooked, remove them from the oven and let them cool.
Cut an avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh into a plate,
mash the flesh with a fork,
add the juice of half a lime or half a lemon,
extra virgin olive oil,
a pinch of salt,
and cream cheese and
