Description

Golden, flaky puff pastry squares filled with savory diced corned beef, tangy sauerkraut, melted Swiss cheese, and Dijon mustard. A delicious twist on the classic deli sandwich, baked until crisp and perfectly melty.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 sheets puff pastry, thawed but still cold
  • 1 cup sliced corned beef, diced
  • 1 cup shredded sauerkraut, well drained
  • 1 cup Swiss cheese, shredded
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, combine diced corned beef, shredded sauerkraut, shredded Swiss cheese, Dijon mustard, and black pepper. Mix until evenly distributed.
  3. Lightly roll out the puff pastry sheets and cut each sheet into 6 equal squares for a total of 12 squares.
  4. Place a small spoonful of filling into the center of each square, leaving a border around the edges.
  5. Brush the pastry edges lightly with beaten egg.
  6. Bake for 15 to 18 minutes until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.
  7. Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  • Drain the sauerkraut thoroughly to prevent soggy pastry.
  • Keep puff pastry cold until ready to bake for best rise.
  • Do not overfill to avoid leaking during baking.
  • Reheat leftovers in the oven at 350 F to maintain crispness.
