Recipe Notes
- I didn’t have two cookie sheets available so I just used a cake pan and stacked it underneath the cookie sheet to prevent burning.
- Try this recipe with other fruit jams like raspberry, strawberry, peach, blueberry or blackberry.
- Store the puff pastry appetizers in an airtight container.
Here's how to make it:
- Unroll the pastry dough and place on a sheet of parchment paper. Put a little flour on a rolling pin and roll the dough out to be about 12 inches long. Spread the fig jam out on the dough leaving a 1/2-inch margin on one long side. Sprinkle the crumbled goat cheese on top of the jam.
- Wet the 1/2-inch border with water and roll up the pastry. Press the seam to close.
- Slide the parchment onto a cutting board and place in the freezer for 20 minutes. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F while the roll is in the freezer. Remove roll from the freezer and slice into 10 pieces.
- Stack two cookie sheets together to prevent burning and line the top one with parchment paper. Place the rolls flat on the parchment.
- Bake for about 22 to 24 minutes or until golden brown. Remove and cool for 10 minutes and enjoy warm!
