These flaky pastry pockets are filled with a delicious cheesy beef filling, making them the perfect solution for busy weeknights or impromptu gatherings.
Ingredients
Scale:
1 pound ground beef
1 medium onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
2 sheets puff pastry (thawed)
1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until soft, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute, stirring frequently to avoid burning.
Incorporate the ground beef into the skillet, cooking until browned, approximately 6-8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
Once the beef is cooked through, remove from heat and stir in the shredded cheese until melted. Allow the mixture to cool slightly.
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry sheets. Cut each sheet into 4 equal squares.
Place a generous tablespoon of the beef and cheese filling in the center of each pastry square.
Fold the squares over to form triangles and seal the edges by pressing with a fork. Brush the tops with the beaten egg.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and p■.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your Cheesy Ground Beef Puff Pastry Pockets!
