Ingredients
  

  • 1 sheet puff pastry about 250 g, thawed
  • 1 cup pumpkin purée 240 g
  • 120 g goat cheese crumbled
  • 1 tbsp olive oil 15 ml
  • 1 tsp dried thyme 5 g
  • 1/2 tsp ground black pepper 2 g
  • 1/2 tsp salt 3 g
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder 2 g
  • 1 egg beaten
  • 1 tbsp milk 15 ml

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 200°C and line a baking tray with parchment paper until it feels ready for baking
  2. Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface until it becomes smooth and slightly thinner
  3. In a bowl, combine pumpkin purée, goat cheese, olive oil, thyme, salt, pepper, and garlic powder until creamy and well blended
  4. Spread the mixture evenly across the pastry, leaving a small border around the edges
  5. Gently roll the pastry into a tight log, pressing lightly so it holds its shape
  6. Slice the log into even rounds, noticing the visible swirl of filling inside each piece
  7. Place the slices flat on the tray with space between them for expansion
  8. Brush the tops lightly with egg wash for a glossy, golden finish
  9. Bake until the pastry puffs up and turns crisp and deep golden, with a warm savory aroma filling the kitchen
  10. Allow to cool slightly before serving so the filling sets and the layers stay intact
