Best Amys Strawberry Jam Puffs Recipes

STRAWBERRY CREAM PUFFS

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, bring water, butter, sugar and salt to a boil. Add flour all at once and stir until a smooth ball forms. Remove from the heat and beat in eggs, one at a time. Continue beating until mixture is smooth and shiny. , Drop by tablespoonfuls 2-in. apart on a large ungreased baking sheet (make 10). Bake at 400° for about 35 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on a wire rack. , For filling, combine berries and 1/4 cup sugar. Chill 30 minutes. , Beat cream and remaining sugar until stiff. Just before serving, cut tops off puffs. Combine berries and cream mixture. Fill cream puffs and replace tops. Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar, and serve with additional berries and mint leaves.

STRAWBERRY-JAM HAND PIES

Steps:

• On a lightly floured work surface, roll out pastry sheets to 1/8 inch thick. Cut each sheet into quarters and place on a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet. Spoon 1 heaping tablespoon jam in center of each piece, brush edges with egg yolk, fold into triangles, and press tightly to seal. Freeze pies until firm, 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Bake pies until golden and puffed, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool completely on sheet on a wire rack. Whisk lemon juice and confectioners' sugar until smooth. Drizzle glaze over cooled pies and let set 20 minutes.

AMY'S STRAWBERRY JAM PUFFS

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven to 200c (or whatever the pastry packet recommends).
• Cut the puff pastry into 8 equal-sized pieces (keep them rectangular).
• put a teaspoonful or so of jam in the middle of each pastry rectange.
• fold up two opposite corners of the pastry and join in the middle (like a danish). You'll also need to curl up the other two corners of the pastry because otherwise when the pastry puffs up the jam will get pushed off onto the baking tray.
• Place on a baking tray (I like to grease with some 1-cal cooking spray) and brush the top of each pastry with milk/egg.
• Bake for approximately 10-15 mins or until the pastry is puffed and golden.
• Cool for a few minutes before serving (because the jam gets HOT).

CREAM CHEESE AND STRAWBERRY JAM PASTRIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 220°C.
• Cut pastry into 4 squares and place on a baking sheet lined with non-stick baking paper.
• Place a quarter of jam and quarter of cream cheese into centre of each piece of pastry. Don't overfill or it will leak out during cooking.
• Carefully bring the four points together to form a parcel and twist - don't worry too much about small gaps.
• Bake for approx 20 mins or until golden.
• When cool dust with icing sugar.

EASY MINI STRAWBERRY CREAM PUFFS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place a mixing bowl in the freezer.
• Combine water, butter, and salt in a saucepan; bring to a boil.
• Remove from the heat and immediately add flour; quickly beat in the flour with a wooden spoon, alternating between pressing on the dough and beating it quickly. Continue until dough has formed a ball and no longer sticks to the side of the pan.
• Add 1 egg, and using the same technique above, beat it in until dough has reached a smooth consistency. Repeat with the second egg. Beat until dough begins to break into strands, about 5 more minutes.
• Divide dough into 12 pieces. Round each piece and place 2 inches apart on an ungreased baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until puffed up and browned, about 20 minutes. Remove and cool on a wire rack.
• Meanwhile, pour cold cream into the chilled mixing bowl. Add white sugar and beat with a hand mixer until light and fluffy.
• Slice across the tops of the cooled cream puffs just enough to open; they will be hollow inside. Put a heaping tablespoon whipped cream in the top and bottom cavities. Put a strawberry in the middle and close the two halves. Set on a plate and dust with powdered sugar.
