📜 A Little History of Puff Pastry
Traditional puff pastry (also called pâte feuilletée) dates back to France and is famous for its many layers created by repeatedly folding butter into dough. While the classic method can take hours, modern home cooks have created shortcut versions like this one—keeping the flavor and texture while saving time and effort.
This “quick puff” is loved around the world for its simplicity and reliability.
🧈 Ingredients
2 cups (300 g) all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon salt
60 g (4 tablespoons) soft butter, divided
Cold water (about ½ cup, added gradually)
1 chicken egg – for egg wash
🥣 Method Overview (Easy Formation)
This pastry uses a rub-in method, where butter is gently mixed into flour instead of being folded in layers. As it bakes, the butter melts and releases steam, forming natural flaky layers.
👩🍳 Instructions
1️⃣ Prepare the Dough
In a large bowl, mix the flour and salt.
Add half of the soft butter and rub it into the flour with your fingertips until crumbly.
Add cold water gradually, mixing just until a soft dough forms. Do not overwork the dough.
2️⃣ Add the Butter
Roll the dough lightly into a rectangle.
Spread the remaining butter over the surface.
Gently roll the dough into a log, then coil or flatten slightly.
3️⃣ Rest the Dough
Wrap the dough and refrigerate for 20–30 minutes. This helps the butter firm up and improves flakiness.
4️⃣ Roll & Shape
Roll out the dough to desired thickness.
Cut or shape for pies, turnovers, pastries, or snacks.
5️⃣ Egg Wash & Bake
Brush with beaten egg.
Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C (400°F) until puffed and golden.
