Instructions

Prep

  2. Line a sheet pan with parchment

    paper.
  3. Set out the puff pastry from the fridge for 5-10 minutes–just long enough for it to be easy to roll but still cold.

Roll the Puff Pastry

  1. Sprinkle a work surface lightly with flour.
  2. Roll out cold puff pastry into a rectangle a little less than 1/8″ thick.
  3. It’s perfectly okay if your pastry sheet has uneven edges.

Cut the Pastry

  1. Use a pizza wheel

    (Affiliate)

    to cut the pastry into strips, about 1″ wide along the long edge of the pastry.
  2. Cut these pieces in half.

Sprinkle

  1. Mix the turbinado sugar

    with cinnamon (or pumpkin pie spice, chai spice blend, or apple pie spice). Sprinkle the top of the pastry liberally with the cinnamon sugar.

Twist

  1. Hold on to the end of a piece of the pastry with both hands and then twist your hands in the opposite direction so that the pastry forms a twist.
