  • Author: Sophia Turner
  • Total Time: 32 minute

Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need to create this delightful dish:

– 1 sheet of puff pastry (thawed)
– 1 bunch of asparagus (about 1 pound)
– 1 cup of shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your choice)
– 1 egg (for egg wash)
– Salt and pepper (to taste)
– Optional: garlic powder or any herbs/spices you prefer


Instructions

Creating Cheesy Puff Pastry Asparagus is simple! Just follow these steps:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Prepare Asparagus: Rinse the asparagus under cold water and pat dry. Trim the tough ends off the asparagus.
3. Roll Out Puff Pastry: On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry sheet to smooth it out slightly.
4. Cut Puff Pastry: Cut the pastry into rectangles, large enough to wrap around each asparagus spear.
5. Season Asparagus: Lightly season the asparagus spears with salt, pepper, and any other preferred spices.
6. Add Cheese: Place a portion of shredded cheese at the base of each asparagus spear.
7. Wrap Asparagus: Carefully wrap each spear in a rectangle of puff pastry, sealing the edges with your fingers.
8. Egg Wash: Whisk the egg in a small bowl and brush it over the pastry to create a golden crust.
9. Bake: Arrange the wrapped asparagus on the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed.
10. Cool Slightly: Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.

This simple process ensures your Cheesy Puff Pastry Asparagus comes out perfectly every time!
