Ingredients

  • 1 pkg puff pastry frozen
  • 1 can blueberry pie filling
  • 1 can cherry pie filling

Instructions

Preparation: (prep time - 30 minutes, start to finish)

  • Defrost the puff pastry in your refrigerator overnight.  Separate the dough into two squares (the brand I use does this for you)
  • Spread a piece of parchment paper and a little flour to make rolling easy.
  • Roll out the square of puff pastry, fairly thin into a rectangle. (the instructions will say 12 X 9)
  • Cut the pastry into small squares – you will get 6 squares per section.
  • Place the small square of puff pastry on the baking sheet you will use.
  • Using a teaspoon the blueberry filling in on the one side of the square – leaving enough room so that you will be able to fold over the dough
  • Fold the dough over and pinch the edges closed.  I like to press the edges with a fork
  • Brush the pastry with an egg yolk wash and then sprinkle with sugar.
  • Repeat until finished and do the same for the second square of puff pastry, using the cherry pie filling.
  • Bake at 375 F for 15-20 minutes – until the pastry is flaky and golden.
  • Let cool before serving as the filling will be very hot!

Garnish:

  • Mix up some icing sugar glaze ( 3 parts icing sugar to 1 part water) and drizzle on the pies when they are still warm.  Yum!
