Print Recipe

A simple puff pastry filled with sautéed mushrooms and melted Gruyère cheese.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 8 oz mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/8 tsp black pepper
  • 4 oz Gruyère cheese, grated
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add mushrooms and cook until browned and tender, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Add garlic, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Cook for 1 minute more until fragrant. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  4. Unfold the puff pastry sheet onto a lightly floured surface.
  5. Spread the mushroom mixture evenly over one half of the puff pastry, leaving a small border.
  6. Sprinkle the Gruyère cheese over the mushrooms.
  7. Fold the other half of the puff pastry over the filling. Press the edges to seal. You can crimp the edges with a fork.
  8. Cut a few small slits in the top of the pastry to allow steam to escape.
  9. Brush the top of the pastry with the beaten egg wash.
  10. Transfer the pastry to the prepared baking sheet.
  11. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed.
  12. Let cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, you can add a pinch of thyme to the mushroom mixture.
  • Ensure your puff pastry is well-chilled before baking for the best puff.
