Gluten Free Cheese and Pesto Straws (dairy free)
Ingredients
- 1 packet of gluten free Jus-Rol puff pastry
- gluten free & dairy free pesto homemade or bought
- dairy free cheese grated
- egg beaten (for the egg wash)
- salt and pepper
Instructions
- Remove your gluten free pastry from the fridge and packaging for around 5 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 180 degrees.
- Prepare a baking tray with some baking paper.
- Cut your sheet of pastry exactly in half and place one piece on your tray.
- Spread the pastry with a layer of pesto, leave a very small gap around the edges of the pastry.
- Sprinkle a good layer of dairy free grated cheese on top of the pesto.
- Place the other half of your gluten free pastry on top.
- Using a sharp knife cut your filled pastry into strips, about the width of a cheese straw! (See in the pictures!)
- Hold onto the ends of the strips and twist a few times.
- Brush on some of your egg wash, this will help the cheese straws go golden in colour.
- Sprinkle on more dairy free cheese all over the top.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Bake for around 20 minutes or until the pastry and cheese is golden.
- Remove from the oven, allow to cool if you want.. or eat them hot!!
- I sprinkle some fresh chives over mine for an extra flavour (I LOVE CHIVES!).
- Enjoy!
Notes
These can be made vegan if you don't use the egg wash, the cheese makes these pretty golden anyway!
