What You Need To Make This Prosciutto Asparagus Puff Pastry Bundles Recipe?

Puff Pastry: Make sure your frozen puff pastry sheets are completely thawed before using them. You can usually find puff pastry in the freezer section of your grocery store. Follow the instructions, on the package to thaw them properly for that delightful flakiness.

Asparagus: For the texture and flavor trim off the ends of the asparagus. This way you’ll be using the tender and edible part of the stalks. Fresh asparagus is preferred because it has a vibrant taste and a crisp texture.

Prosciutto: When placing prosciutto on the puff pastry squares consider folding the slices to fit nicely. This ensures that every bite has a distribution and a balanced flavor. Prosciutto is famous for its salty and savory taste.

Gruyere Cheese: Gruyere cheese is an ideal choice because of its slightly sweet flavor that perfectly complements other ingredients. It melts beautifully. Adds a richness, to the bundles. However, if you want to get creative with types of cheese feel free to do so to create your own unique flavor profiles.

Steps To Make Prosciutto Asparagus Puff Pastry Bundles:

Step 1: Begin by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C) and lining a sheet pan with parchment paper.

Step 2: To make the puff pastry squares start by rolling out each sheet of puff pastry on a floured surface until it doubles in size. Then square off the edges. Cut each sheet into 6-sized squares.

Step 3: Next, prepare the asparagus by tossing it in oil and seasoning it with salt and pepper.

Step 4: Now it’s time to assemble the bundles. Take each puff pastry square and place a slice of prosciutto on top. If needed fold the prosciutto to fit nicely. Then add 3 to 4 stalks of asparagus (adjusting based on their size). Sprinkle 1 to 2 tablespoons of shredded Gruyere cheese, on top.

Step 5: Once everything is placed nicely lift two corners of the puff pastry squares. Wrap them around the asparagus and fillings. Press gently to seal the edges. To give it a color while baking brush some beaten egg wash over the puff pastry. If you like, sprinkle some salt and pepper for added flavor.

Step 6: Bake these delicious bundles, in your preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes or until the puff pastry turns brown and puffed up.

Step 7: Finally serve these delightful Prosciutto Asparagus Puff Pastry Bundles immediately so you can savor the combination of pastry, savory prosciutto, and fresh asparagus.

Tip:

This additional flavor layer adds a tangy note that enhances the overall taste of your Prosciutto Asparagus Puff Pastry Bundles. It’s an effective technique to elevate the already delicious appetizer.
