Provided by Kelsey Nixon

Time 1h5m

Yield 40 olives

Number Of Ingredients 7

3/4 cup grated Parmesan
Zest of 1 lemon
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley
1 large egg
Flour, for dusting
1 sheet frozen puff pastry (from a 17.3-ounce package), thawed
About 40 pimento-stuffed green olives (two 3-ounce jars), drained

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a mixing bowl, toss together the Parmesan, lemon zest and parsley until combined.
  • In a separate small bowl, whisk the egg with 2 teaspoons water to make an egg wash.
  • On a floured work surface, gently roll out the puff pastry sheet, removing any fold marks but keeping the same general size and shape. Using a sharp knife or a pizza wheel, cut forty 1-by-2-inch rectangles. Place an olive in the middle of a rectangle and gently wrap the pastry around the olive, pinching the seam and ends to seal. Coat the wrapped olive first in egg wash and then in cheese mixture. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining pastry and olives.
  • Bake until golden brown and crispy, about 15 minutes. Remove the olives from the baking sheet and cool completely on a wire rack.

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 large egg yolks
1 large egg
1/4 cup whole milk
20 pitted olives
Store-bought puff pastry, rolled into 1 (10 by 12-inch) rectangle

Steps:

  • Prepare the egg wash: Combine the yolks, whole egg, and milk in a small mixing bowl and whip with a hand whisk until well combined. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Set the puff pastry on a lightly floured work surface, with the long side facing you and cut in half from top to bottom. Use a pastry brush to coat one piece of the dough with egg wash. Lay the olives spaced about 1-inch apart from top to bottom on the egg-washed dough. Place the other rolled-out dough half on top of the olives and mark each olive by pressing the dough on either side of the olive. Use a sharp paring knife to cut between each puff pastry-covered olive. Place on a parchment paper-covered baking sheet and brush with more egg wash. Bake until well risen and golden brown, about 20 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack before serving. There is no need to cut these in half. Just cut between the olives to make small packages. Baking and cooling is the same. These puff pastry items are best eaten the day they are made.

OLIVE PUFFS

I prepared these little puff pastry wrapped olives last Christmas and saw them disappear very quickly. You could use the jalapeño stuffed, garlic stuffed, anchovy stuffed, or even kalamata olives instead of the pimento ones. They can also be rolled in sesame seeds, poppy seeds, or grated Parmesan cheese before baking to give a bit more flare. This recipe was originally published on Allrecipes.com. That site stated that they could be made ahead and frozen, allowing 30 minutes for the pastry to thaw before baking.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, firm olives. Overripe or bruised olives will not hold their shape well when wrapped in pastry.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut the olives. This will help to prevent them from tearing.
  • Be careful not to overfill the pastry cups. If you do, the olives will be difficult to eat.
  • Bake the pastries until they are golden brown. This will ensure that they are cooked through.
  • Serve the pastries warm or at room temperature. They can be enjoyed as an appetizer or a snack.

Conclusion:

Puff pastry wrapped olives are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. They are perfect for parties or gatherings, and they can be made ahead of time. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a tasty and impressive treat that your guests will love.
