Blackberry Jam Pie-Crust Straws

They’re fun and easy to make, packing big pie-like flavour into a simple preparation that’s easy to master

Ingredients

  • 1 large egg
  • 3 tablespoons (38 g) granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 sheets (about 453 g) puff pastry
  • ⅓ cup (103 g) Blackberry Jam

Method

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 200°C and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a small bowl, whisk the egg with 1 tablespoon water to combine.

Step 3

In another small bowl, stir the sugar and cinnamon to combine.

Step 4

On a lightly floured surface, roll out both sheets of puff pastry to flatten slightly. Spread the jam evenly on top of one sheet of puff pastry, leaving about ¼ inch uncovered on all sides. Brush the uncovered edges with egg wash and place the second sheet of puff pastry on top, pressing firmly around the edges to seal.

Step 5

Brush the top sheet of puff pastry with egg wash and sprinkle evenly with cinnamon sugar.

Step 6

Use a sharp knife or pizza cutter to cut the dough into ½-inch-wide strips. Twist the strips a few times, then transfer to the prepared baking sheets, leaving about ½ inch between each piece.

Step 7

Bake until the pastry is golden brown and crisp, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool for at least 5 minutes before serving.
