In keeping with the pumpkin theme I decided the make pumpkin puff pastry puff buns for our Halloween hamburgers. The kids and my husband really enjoyed these biscuits although they were a little hard for the kids to hold without breaking the 'bun'. However they would also be really good served on their own as an appetizer or side dish, and as an extra bonus they were really easy!
Original recipe here
Ingredients
Makes 18 to 24
1 puound lean ground chickenAll-purpose flour, for parchment
1 standard package (17.3 ounces) frozen puff pastry, thawed
1 1/2 teaspoons paprika
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
2 1/2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 1/2 cups finely grated Gruyere cheese
1 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese
Freshly ground pepper
Directions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Generously flour two pieces of parchment paper; on each, roll out an unfolded pastry sheet to form a 15-by-13-inch rectangle, about 1/16 inch thick. Refrigerate until firm, about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, stir the paprika into the melted butter.
Remove pastry from the refrigerator, and brush off excess flour. Spread a rectangle of pastry with mustard; sprinkle with both cheeses. Season with pepper. Lay a second pastry rectangle on top.
Place a sheet of parchment on top of the stacked pastry; using a rolling pin, roll until smooth and pastry layers are sealed together. Remove parchment, and brush top of pastry with butter mixture. Chill until firm, about 30 minutes.
With a pumpkin-shaped cookie cutter, cut into 18 to 24 shapes. Immediately place the shapes on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Using a sharp paring knife, score each shape four or five times to make pumpkin ridges. Bake until golden, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer puffs to a wire rack; let cool slightly before serving.
Meanwhile shape the ground chicken into small patties and BBQ. When the puff pastries are done place on chicken hamburger on one and then top with another pumpkin puff pastry. Enjoy!
