Ingredients for Puff Pastry Swirls with Zucchini

  • 1 puff pastry (rectangular)
  • 1.1 lbs zucchini
  • 1 cup ricotta
  • 4.2 oz cooked ham
  • 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 pinch pepper

How to Prepare Zucchini Puff Pastries

  • Wash the zucchini. Trim the ends and cut them into very thin slices lengthwise using a vegetable peeler or mandoline

  • Mix the ricotta in a bowl with a pinch of pepper and the grated Parmesan cheese.

  • Roll out a rectangular puff pastry sheet on the work surface. Spread the ricotta cream all over the surface

  • Cover with the zucchini slices to cover the entire surface slightly overlapping them.

  • Now cover with the slices of cooked ham. Roll up the puff pastry from the longer side using the baking paper

  • Cut slices about 3/4 inch thick. Arrange the Zucchini Swirls slightly apart on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, slightly spreading them.

  • Bake the Puff Pastries with Zucchini in a preheated static oven at 375°F for 20-22 minutes

Loredana’s Tips

If you have leftover swirls, keep them in a container in the fridge for 1-2 days or you can freeze them

If you prefer, you can replace ricotta with spreadable cheese like Philadelphia, Robiola, or Stracchino

You can also replace the cooked ham with speck
