Puff pastry pockets are not only a real delight, but they are also a quick dessert to prepare at the last minute. For a while, I’ve maintained the habit of always having a roll of puff pastry in the fridge because it’s the solution for a quick treat or an easy-peasy appetizer. I usually prepare it at home, CLICK HERE for the recipe, because it’s more genuine, but when it’s not possible, I buy it at the supermarket, perhaps choosing the best one and taking a careful look at the ingredients! This puff pastry pockets recipe has a mixed filling; some I prepared with Nutella, others with my plum jam; I can assure you that the final result was very appreciated by the family. Well, let’s go see the procedure together!

Ingredients for Puff Pastry Pockets
- 1 roll puff pastry
- 3 tablespoons jam
- 3 tablespoons Nutella®
- 0.35 oz brown sugar
Tools
- Baking tray (oven)
- Parchment paper
- Pastry cutter (pasta cutter)
Preparing the Puff Pastry Pockets
I take the puff pastry out of the fridge half an hour before starting the recipe. Then I unroll it and immediately place it on the baking tray with its parchment paper.
With the help of a pastry cutter, I cut out six rectangles.
Again with the pastry cutter, I trim the edge of the puff pastry, making about six strips, and fill it with jam
or with Nutella
I lift the strips of puff pastry and start sealing the pocket well. I recommend sealing it well to prevent the filling from coming out.
I sprinkle the pockets with brown sugar to make them more golden after baking.
Now all that’s left is to bake at 356°F for about 20/25 minutes
Here they are, fragrant and delicious.
