Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). (5 minutes)

02

Step
25 mins

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add shallot; cook and stir until tender and translucent. (5 minutes)

03

Step
20 mins

Lower heat to medium-low and add sliced wild mushrooms. Cook and stir until mushrooms have released their moisture and reduced in volume by half, allowing their flavors to concentrate. (15 minutes)

04

Step
15 mins

Stir in roasted garlic, grated Parmesan cheese, and chopped fresh thyme. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. (2 minutes)

05

Step

Stir in heavy cream and simmer gently until the mixture thickens slightly, creating a luscious sauce. Remove from heat and allow the mushroom mixture to cool slightly. It will thicken further as it cools. (5 minutes)

06

Step

Unfold thawed puff pastry sheet onto a lightly floured surface and gently roll into a 12 x 15 inch rectangle. Cut the pastry into eighteen 3-inch squares. (5 minutes)

07

Step

Place a generous, mounded teaspoon of the cooled mushroom filling in the center of each pastry square. Fold the pastry over the filling to form a triangle. Firmly press the edges together with a fork to seal each puff, ensuring no filling escapes during baking. (15 minutes)

08

Step

Arrange the filled puff pastries on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 12 to 16 minutes, or until the pastries are puffed and golden brown. (14 minutes)

09

Step

Remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving. Serve hot or at room temperature, garnished with a sprig of fresh thyme if desired.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of dry sherry or Madeira wine to the mushroom mixture while cooking.
Ensure the mushroom filling is not too wet before assembling the pastries, as this can make the pastry soggy.
For a richer flavor, use a blend of wild mushrooms such as porcini, chanterelles, and morels.
To achieve a more golden-brown color, brush the tops of the pastries with an egg wash (1 egg beaten with 1 tablespoon of water) before baking.

    My puff pastry didn't puff up as much as I expected. Any suggestions?

  • Zion Padberg

    These are best served warm. The filling gets a bit dense when completely cold.

  • Nikki Bergstrom

    Next time, I'll try adding a little truffle oil for extra decadence.

  • Arden Schneider

    I added a sprinkle of Gruyere cheese on top before baking, and it was amazing!
