Ingredients:

  • 1 Sheet Puff Pastry, thawed
  • 2 tbsp. Honey
  • 2 tsp. Olive Oil
  • 1/4 cup Whole Honey Roasted Pistachios
  • 2 oz. Crumbled Goat Cheese
  • 2 oz. Crumbled Feta
  • 1/3 cup Dried Cranberries
  • 1 Egg + 1 tbsp. of water, lightly beaten
  • Dash of Powdered Sugar, for garnish
  • A little Pink Himalayan Salt, for garnish

Instructions:

  • First, thaw the puff pastry in the refrigerator. Once thawed, roll out onto a cutting board. Next, evenly cut the puff pastry sheet along the lines. This will leave you with three even pieces.
  • Cut each piece diagonally, creating triangle shapes. This will give you six triangles.
  • Mix the honey and olive oil. Layer the inside of each triangle with the mix. This will help the additional ingredients stick.
  • Layer each triangle with crushed pistachios, feta, goat cheese, and dried cranberries. Making sure to leave a little bit of the crushed pistachios left for the final layer.
  • Roll the stuffed croissant by starting with the larger side of the triangle.
  • Some ingredients might fall out. That’s ok! Just tuck them into the sides once you have rolled them into the croissant shape.
  • Mix together the egg and water. Brush each croissant with the mix, then lightly sprinkle the tops with pistachios. This is optional but makes them prettier.
  • Bake in a 350F preheated oven for 25 minutes on a lined baking sheet. 
  • Remove from the oven and transfer to a serving platter. Decorate each with desired amount of powdered sugar and a light dusting of salt. Enjoy immediately.
