28 Easy Labor Day Appetizer Recipes: Pepperoni Basil Tomato Puffs
by eatwell101
Yield: 9 servings Prep Time: 20 min Cook time: 15 min
Bite-sized with big flavor! Perfect for Sunday brunch.
Ingredients you need for the Pepperoni Basil Tomato Puffs
1 sheet puff pastry (click here to learn how to make your own puff pastry)
1 or 2 tomatoes, sliced
1/2 cup shredded parmesan
Pepperoni slices (2 per appetizer)
Fresh basil, chopped
1 egg yolk mixed with 1 teaspoon water, for gilding
Salt and fresh cracked pepper
Directions
1. Preheat your oven to 360°F (180°C). Roll out the puff pastry and transfer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cut 9 squares (approx. 3-inch/8cm)
2. On each square, arrange a tomato slice, topped with 2 pepperoni slices, parmesan, salt, pepper and chopped basil. Fold to opposite corners of each squares to form little boats.
3. Brush each pastry with the egg yolk, then refrigerate for 10-15 minutes before baking in the oven for 15-20 minutes, until cheese is melted and pastries are puffed and golden. Serve immediately, enjoy!
Note: Make sure the puff pastry is cold when it goes into the oven. The recipe doubles easily, check our puff pastry recipe because it allows you prepare 2 batches.
