Pistachio-Cashew Puff Pastry Swirls with Hemp Seeds

Crispy, flaky golden puff pastry filled with creamy pistachio-cashew butter and nutty hemp seeds, finished with a simple sugar glaze and an extra drizzle of nut butter. An easy sweet treat with a rich, nutty flavour that requires only a handful of ingredients.
nutritional bonus: the pistachio-cashew butter and hemp seeds add plant-based protein, fibre and healthy unsaturated fats to the mix.

Makes: approximately 12 pastries
Prep time: 10 minutes
Baking time: 15-20 minutes
Temperature: 200°C

Ingredients

  • 1 sheet puff pastry (approx. 275 g)

  • 150 g pistachio-cashew butter

  • 2 tbsp hemp seeds, plus extra for topping

  • 1 egg yolk

  • 30 g powdered sugar

  • 1-2 tsp water

  • Extra pistachio-cashew butter for drizzling

You can also replace the hemp seeds with sesame seeds, chopped pistachios or other seeds of your choice.

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 200°C and line a baking tray with parchment paper.

  2. Unroll the puff pastry and spread the pistachio-cashew butter evenly over the surface.

  3. Sprinkle the hemp seeds over the nut butter.

  4. Starting from one side, gently roll the pastry into one large, tight roll.

  5. Separate the egg yolk from the egg white and lightly whisk the yolk. Brush it evenly over the outside of the pastry roll.

  6. Cut the roll into slices approximately 2 cm thick and place them cut-side up on the prepared baking tray.

  7. Sprinkle a few more hemp seeds over each pastry.

  8. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the pastries are puffed and beautifully golden brown.

  9. Meanwhile, mix the powdered sugar with a small amount of water until you have a smooth, drizzleable icing.

  10. Allow the pastries to cool slightly, then drizzle with the icing and a little extra pistachio-cashew butter.

    Enjoy!
