Puff Pastry Swirls with Walnuts and Jam

These puff pastry swirls with walnuts and jam are simple and quick treats to prepare, perfect for both breakfast and snacks.

Crunchy on the outside and soft inside, they are loved by everyone and can be personalized each time with the jam we prefer in the family: apricots, berries, cherries or with what we have at home.

I made them yesterday afternoon almost for fun, just to have something sweet with tea, and instead, they disappeared in a flash! They are so good it’s impossible to stop at just one.
