Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon Salted Butter
- 2 cups medium diced Onions
- 1 to 1.5 cups chopped fresh Figs
- Salt and pepper to preference
- 1 sheet of refrigerated Puff Pastry dough make sure it is cold and not frozen
- ¼ cup Apricot Jam
Instructions
- Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and melt the butter. Sauté the onions and figs until they are soft and caramelized. Salt and pepper to taste.
- Unfold the puff pastry and cut into 8 (or number of your choosing) pieces and set onto the parchment paper lined tray.
- Spoon some of the onion-fig mixture onto one side of each puff pastry piece. Repeat until all of the filling has been evenly used.
- Fold over the puff pastry dough and pinch the long end closed. The ends will still be open as the filling will not leak out.
- Brush the tops with a little bit of apricot jam.
- Bake for about 20 minutes or until the pastries have completely puffed up and are golden brown.
- Allow the pastries to rest for a few minutes before serving and enjoying.
Notes
Yield: 8 small hand pies depending on the size of your pastry dough and how many pieces you choose to cut it into. Adjust cooking time accordingly.
