Equipment

  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Sharp knife or pizza cutter
  • Small mixing bowl
  • Fork or whisk
  • Pastry brush

Ingredients
  

  • 1 sheet of puff pastry thawed
  • 4 oz goat cheese softened
  • 2 tbsp fresh herbs e.g., parsley, thyme, chives, finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 egg for egg wash
  • 1 tsp olive oil optional, for drizzling
  • Pinch of salt and pepper

Instructions
 

  • Prepare Puff Pastry: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Roll out the puff pastry slightly and cut into 12 equal squares.
  • Make Filling: In a small mixing bowl, combine goat cheese, chopped herbs, honey, salt, and pepper. Mix until smooth.
  • Assemble Bites: Place a teaspoon of the goat cheese mixture in the center of each puff pastry square. Gently fold the corners of the pastry toward the center, pinching lightly to seal.
  • Add Egg Wash: Beat the egg in a small bowl and brush over the tops of the pastry for a golden finish.
  • Bake: Place the bites on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12–15 minutes or until puffed and golden brown.
  • Drizzle & Serve: Let cool for 2 minutes. Optionally, drizzle with olive oil or extra honey before serving.

Notes

  • Can be made ahead: Assemble the bites and refrigerate; bake fresh before serving.
  • Swap goat cheese for cream cheese if preferred.
  • Add finely chopped sun-dried tomatoes for an extra punch of flavor.
