I absolutely love puff pastry and could eat it every day, but every time I glance at the nutrition label, the saturated fat content makes me pause. That doesn\u2019t mean I skip out on this crispy, flaky goodness entirely, it just means I enjoy it in moderation.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"483\" data-end=\"962\">Most of the time, I make a savoury filling, usually stuffing the pastry squares with a flavourful chicken or beef mixture. But this time, I wanted something different: a sweet twist. I whipped up a delicious filling with coconut, eggs, sugar, dates, and cashew nuts. When the pastries came out of the oven, they were perfectly golden, crispy, and flaky. I couldn&#8217;t even wait for them to cool down before taking my first bite!<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"483\" data-end=\"962\">The combination of coconut, eggs, and cashew nuts along with the crispy puff pastry was simply divine.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"964\" data-end=\"1065\">One thing I\u2019ve learned about puff pastry? No matter how many I make, they disappear within seconds!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-33031\" src=\"https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/09\/Sweet-coconut-egg-puff-pastry-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/09\/Sweet-coconut-egg-puff-pastry-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/09\/Sweet-coconut-egg-puff-pastry-150x200.jpg 150w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/09\/Sweet-coconut-egg-puff-pastry-45x60.jpg 45w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/09\/Sweet-coconut-egg-puff-pastry.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"easyrecipe mceNonEditable\" data-rating=\"0\"> \t<link itemprop=\"image\" href=\"http:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/09\/img_1416-copy2.jpg\" \/>\n<div class=\"item ERName\">Sweet Coconut Egg Puff Pastry &#8211; Sweet Puffs<\/div>\n<div class=\"ERClear\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERHead\"><span class=\"xlate\">Recipe Type<\/span>: <span class=\"type\">Snack<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERHead\">Cuisine: <span class=\"cuisine\">Indian<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERHead\">Author: <span class=\"author\">Thasneen<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERHead\">Prep time: <time itemprop=\"prepTime\" datetime=\"PT10M\">10 mins<\/time><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERHead\">Cook time: <time itemprop=\"cookTime\" datetime=\"PT35M\">35 mins<\/time><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERHead\">Total time: <time itemprop=\"totalTime\" datetime=\"PT45M\">45 mins<\/time><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERHead\">Serves: <span class=\"yield\">9<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERIngredients\">\n<div class=\"ERIngredientsHeader\">Ingredients<\/div>\n<ul class=\"ingredients\">\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Puff Pastry (store bought)- 1 sheet, cut into medium sized 9 squares<\/li>\n<li class=\"ERSeparator\">[b]For making the filling[\/b]<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Ghee- 2 tbsp<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Coconut, grated- 1 cup<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Dates, chopped- 2 (or add 1 tbsp raisins)<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Egg- 2<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Sugar- 4 tbsp<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Cardamom powder- 1\/2 tsp<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Cashew nuts, chopped- 2 tbsp<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"ERInstructions\">\n<div class=\"ERInstructionsHeader\">Instructions<\/div>\n<div class=\"instructions\">\n<ol>\n<li class=\"instruction\">If using frozen puff pastry sheets, thaw them by placing it on the kitchen counter top for about 2 hours.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Place a pan over medium heat, add 2 tbsp ghee, add the grated coconut and saute till coconut starts to turn light golden in color.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Add chopped dates or raisins, combine well.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Add cardamom powder, combine well.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Add the eggs and scramble them.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Add sugar and combine well.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Add the chopped cashew nuts &amp; stir fry for 2 minutes.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Take the pan off the heat.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Let the filling cool down for a few minutes.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Preheat the oven to 400 F or 200 C.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Divide the puff pastry sheets to 8 square shapes.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Place about 1 to 2 tbsp of filling onto the centre of each puff pastry squares, fold the square &amp; seal the edges.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Using a fork press the edges this will give a nice pattern on the edges.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Keep the baking sheet in the preheated oven, on the middle rack.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Bake for 20 minutes.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">The baking time may vary depending on the brand of puff pastry you\u2019re using, so be sure to follow the instructions on the box.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">After 20 minutes, take the baking sheet out of the oven.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Enjoy while the puffs are warm, the sweet coconut egg filling along with the crispy puffs tastes absolutely delish, enjoy!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"ERNutrition\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"endeasyrecipe\" style=\"display: none;\">3.5.3251<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Puff pastry with sweet coconut and egg filling, delicious&#8230; I\u2019ve never had the nerve to make puff pastry dough from scratch, so I always take the easy route: grabbing a pack from the frozen aisle at the grocery store.
