Ingredients
UnitsScale
1 roll of puff pastry (bought)
1cup of raisins
1/2cup of brown sugar
1 teaspoon of cinnamon
cream cheese for spread
1 egg
Instructions
Roll out your defrosted roll of puff pastry. Open it up on the paper, or place it on a floured surface. (do not leave it to long at room temperature, as it will be difficult to work with)
Spread thinly a little cream cheese over the pastry. (not to much as it will leave the center of the roll up uncooked and damp). Then sprinkle some cinnamon and sugar over the whole top. Add the raisins evenly.
Start to roll up the pastry length wise. Roll as tightly as possible. For easier use of the pastry roll it is recommended to wrap with cling wrap plastic and keep in the fridge for up to 20-30 minutes. To chill.
Preheat oven to 200 deg. C (400 deg. F)
Once it has been in the fridge it will be easier to work with. Slice the roll in half an inch slices. Not to thick.
Spray your sheet pan with a non stick or grease it with butter and you can optionally use a a wax proof or parchment paper.
Place your sliced puff pastry raisin slices on the greased sheet pan tray. Keep them about an inch apart for them to expand.
Beat your egg and lightly brush to top of the roll before you place them in the oven. This will give the bake a brown and crusty topping.
Bake for 25-30 minutes until they are golden and done.
Take them out and lay on a cooling rack.
Eat them warm or at room temperature. They are still tasty when cold.
