Description

Delightful flaky twists filled with turkey bacon and sharp cheddar cheese, perfect for cozy gatherings or weeknight dinners.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 package frozen puff pastry, thawed
  • 6 slices turkey bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Prepare the puff pastry by rolling it into a rectangular shape on a floured surface, about 1/8 inch thick.
  3. Add the crumbled turkey bacon, cheddar cheese, garlic powder, and oregano to one half of the pastry, seasoning with salt and pepper.
  4. Fold the pastry over to cover the filling, then slice it into 1 inch wide strips.
  5. Twist each strip to create a corkscrew shape and place them on the baking sheet. Brush with beaten egg.
  6. Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed up. Enjoy!

Notes

Make ahead by preparing the twists the night before and store in the fridge. Brush with egg wash before baking.
