Parmesan Puff Pastry Breadsticks
These parmesan puff pastry breadsticks are quick and easy which makes them the perfect appetizer or snack for any occasion.
Ingredients
- 1 puff pastry (thawed (½ pound/250 grams), see note 1)
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (see note 2)
- salt (to taste)
- black pepper (to taste)
- 1 tablespoon parmesan powder (see note 3)
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary (finely chopped)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 Fahrenheit (200 Celsius).
- Unfold the puff pastry and roll it out thin (if not using ready-rolled).
- Brush it with olive oil and sprinkle with salt, pepper, Parmesan powder and rosemary. Press it down lightly with a rolling pin.
- Cut it into thin slices (0.5-inch/1.5-centimetre). Mine were 8-inch/20-centimetre long, but you can cut them into any length you like. Transfer them onto a baking sheet lined with baking parchment, leaving small gaps between them.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 400 Fahrenheit (200 Celsius) for 8 minutes or until puffed and golden brown (see note 5).
- Enjoy!
Notes
- Fresh pastry can also be used.
- Extra virgin olive oil can be substituted with regular olive oil. I don’t recommend using another type of oil. You might need less/more oil – you want to cover the whole surface of the pastry.
- Parmesan can be substituted with Grana Padano or Pecorino. If you use pecorino, you can omit the salt completely, as the cheese is quite salty.
- The number of sticks will vary. This will depend on how large your pastry is as well as how thin you cut the sticks.
- When making these for the first time, I recommend keeping an eye on them as the baking time may vary from oven to oven/puff pastry to puff pastry. They should all be puffed and golden brown on top. Bake them less rather than more to avoid overcooking.
