Prep Time:10 minutes
Cook Time:20 minutes
Total Time:30 minutes
Servings:24 puff pastry cups

Ingredients

For the pastry:

  • 24 puff pastry cups frozen

For the filling:

  • ¼ cup blueberries
  • 3 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream

Instructions

To make the pastry:

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the frozen puff pastry sheets on the lined baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.

To make the filling:

  • Meanwhile, add the blueberries, lemon juice, and honey to a food processor and blend until you have a smooth purée.
  • Add the whipping cream to a mixing bowl, mix in one tablespoon of the blueberry purée, and then whip until firm.
  • Stir in the remaining purée slowly until well combined, and then transfer the filling into a piping bag and refrigerate for 10 minutes to thicken.
  • Remove the piping bag from the refrigerator and pipe the filling into the pastry cups. Optionally, top with a fresh blueberry. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • Swap the blueberries for any other type of soft fruit and the lemon juice for lime if you prefer.
  • Keep an eye on them while baking since they might take closer to 15 minutes than 20 depending on your oven. Once they’re golden they’re ready.
  • Although these will keep for 2 or 3 days in the refrigerator, they’re better served as soon as they’re made.
