High-End All-Purpose Flour

Unsalted European Butter

Egg, Beaten

Why This Recipe Works

The combination of flaky pastry, rich butter, and a hint of egg yolk creates a pastry that’s both tender and flaky.
Using cold ingredients ensures that the butter stays solid during the folding process, allowing for the flakiest pastry.
The simplicity of this recipe makes it accessible to bakers of all levels, while the combination of ingredients creates a rich, buttery flavor.

Key Ingredients

When it comes to the quality of puff pastry, the type of flour used can make all the difference. I recommend using High-End All-Purpose Flour for its balanced protein and starch levels. Unsalted European Butter is also essential for a rich, buttery flavor and tender texture. A beaten egg provides a layer of moisture and helps to bind the pastry together.

Ingredients

2 cups High-End All-Purpose Flour

1 cup Unsalted European Butter, softened

1 large Egg, beaten

1 tablespoon Water

1 teaspoon Salt

1 tablespoon Granulated Sugar

Directions

In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, salt, and granulated sugar.

Cut the softened butter into small cubes and add to the dry ingredients.

Using a pastry blender or your fingers, work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Add the beaten egg and water to the mixture, stirring with a fork until the dough comes together in a cohesive ball.

Slowly roll out the dough to a thickness of about 1/8 inch, using a gentle pressing motion to avoid overworking the dough.

Storage & Reheating

leftovers can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. To reheat, simply bake at 375°F (190°C) for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until flaky and golden brown.
