Pizza Puff Pastry Twists Recipes

Steps:

• Place the two sheets of puff pastry on a parchment paper lined baking tray.
• Cut out equal size circles. Remove the top sheet.
• On the bottom sheet, spread pizza sauce and shredded cheese. Place the other sheet of puff pastry on top.
• Take a glass and place it in the center of the circle. Using a knife or scissors, cut strips away from the edge of the glass.
• Take each strip and twist.
• Brush egg wash over the top of the puff pastry.
• Bake at 400°F (204°C) for 20-25 minutes.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Put the flour and a pinch of salt in the food processor. Turn it on and steadily pour in 150ml of water. When the dough comes together, cover it in cling film and chill for 20 mins.
• Lightly flour your surface and roll the dough into a 25cm circle. Put the butter in between two pieces of baking parchment and soften it by tapping it with a rolling pin. Cut the butter in half and repeat the process until the butter is pliable but still cold. Reshape to the size roughly of a postcard.
• Put the butter in the centre of the pastry and fold over the right and left sides of the circle, overlapping in the middle. Press the dough with your rolling pin to make it longer and then lightly mark into thirds. Fold the bottom third up to cover the middle third and the top third down. Seal the dough gently by pressing down on the edges with your rolling pin. Give the dough a quarter turn.
• Roll the dough out to a long rectangle (roughly 18 x 38cm), keeping the edges square and the sides straight. Mark the dough into thirds again, fold the bottom third up and the top third down. Seal the edges and give the dough a quarter turn. Repeat one more time, cover and chill for 20 mins.
• Repeat step four twice more, chilling each time. Chill for one hour before using. Watch our puff pastry video for a Good Food tutorial.

Steps:

• Roll out both pizza doughs on top of each other. Use a plate as a stencil to cut them into 2 circles. Take the top one off and put pizza sauce and mozzarella cheese on top of the bottom one. Place the other pizza dough on top.
• Place a smaller round object in the middle and cut from that object to the outside in 11 slices.
• Twist each slice and brush olive oil on top of the whole thing.
• Bake in the oven at 400 for 20-25 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Unroll the pastry, cut into six squares and arrange over two baking trays lined with baking parchment. Use a cutlery knife to score a 1cm border around the edge of each pastry square. Bake for 15 mins, until puffed up but not cooked through.
• While the pastry cooks, make the sauce and prepare your toppings. Mix the tomato purée, tomato ketchup, oregano and 1 tbsp water. Grate the cheese and chop any veg or herbs you want to put on top into small pieces. Set aside.
• Remove the pastry from the oven and squash down the middles with the back of a spoon. Divide the sauce between the pastry squares and spread it out to the puffed-up edges. Sprinkle with the cheese, then add your toppings. Bake for another 5-8 mins and serve.
