Peach Cream Puff Pastry Squares with fresh peaches and whipped cream filling

Delightful pastry squares filled with creamy vanilla-infused cream cheese and sweet, ripe peaches, all enveloped in flaky puff pastry.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 sheet All-Butter Puff Pastry, thawed
  • 8 ounces Full-Fat Cream Cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1 large Egg, divided
  • 1 teaspoon Pure Vanilla Extract
  • 1 tablespoon All-Purpose Flour
  • 2 to 3 large Ripe Peaches, pitted and thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
  • 2 tablespoons Brown Sugar
  • Optional Garnish: Powdered Sugar, Apricot Jam, or Fresh Mint

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Unfold the thawed puff pastry onto the baking sheet and trim it into rectangles (about 3×4 inches).
  3. Score a 1-inch border around each rectangle and dock the center with a fork.
  4. In a bowl, combine cream cheese and granulated sugar, beating until smooth. Add egg yolk, vanilla extract, and flour, mixing thoroughly.
  5. Spread the cream cheese mixture on each pastry rectangle within the scored borders.
  6. Toss peach slices in lemon juice and arrange them on top of the cream cheese layer.
  7. Brush edges with whisked egg white and sprinkle brown sugar over the peaches.
  8. Bake for 18-22 minutes until puffed and golden brown.
  9. Cool slightly, then garnish with powdered sugar or apricot jam and fresh mint before serving.

Notes

Make sure your puff pastry is at room temperature before using for proper puffing during baking. Store in the fridge for up to 2 days.
