These Blueberry Cream Cheese Puff Pastries are a delightful treat that combines the buttery crispness of puff pastry with a sweet and tangy cream cheese filling and bursts of juicy blueberries.

Ingredients

Scale

Puff Pastry:

  • 1 sheet (about 8 oz/225 g) puff pastry, thawed

Cream Cheese Filling:

  • 4 oz (113 g) cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon lemon zest (optional)

Blueberry Filling:

  • 1/2 cup (75 g) fresh or frozen blueberries
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour (if using frozen blueberries)

Egg Wash:

  • 1 egg
  • 1 tablespoon milk

Glaze:

  • 1/2 cup (60 g) powdered sugar
  • 1–2 tablespoons milk or cream
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Prepare the Puff Pastry: Roll out the thawed puff pastry on a lightly floured surface to smooth any creases. Cut into 6 equal rectangles for individual pastries.
  3. Make the Cream Cheese Filling: In a small bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and lemon zest (if using) until smooth.
  4. Assemble the Pastries: Spread about 1 tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture onto the center of each puff pastry rectangle. Toss the blueberries in flour (if using frozen) and evenly distribute them over the cream cheese layer. Fold the edges of the puff pastry slightly inward to create a small border.
  5. Apply the Egg Wash: In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and milk. Brush the edges of each pastry with the egg wash to encourage browning.
  6. Bake: Transfer the pastries to the prepared baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the puff pastry is golden brown and puffed. Let cool slightly.
  7. Make the Glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Drizzle the glaze over the slightly cooled pastries.

Notes

  • You can customize these pastries by adding a sprinkle of cinnamon or a dash of almond extract to the cream cheese filling.
  • For a shortcut, you can use store-bought blueberry pie filling instead of fresh blueberries.
