Do you have to thaw Puff Pastry before baking?

Puff pastry needs to be thawed before using; you can leave it in the counter for 30 to 40 minutes, until it’s easy to handle and doesn’t brake.

You can also thaw it overnight in the fridge, which helps the pastry soften but not too much. If it’s still not pliable enough, leave it on the counter for 5 to 10 minutes.

How to make Cinnamon Puff Pastry Knots

First, you need to let the puff pastry thaw for 30 to 40 minutes, until easy to handle. Pre-heat oven to 350 F and spray 8 cupcake tins with cooking spray.

Next, mix sugar, cinnamon and butter, until a thick paste is formed. Spread the sugar mixture in the middle of the pastry, then fold the sides in.

Cut pastry into 1 inch strips, then cut each strip down a line in the middle, leaving the pastry attached at the top. Twist the pastry together, and then roll it to form a knot (watch the how-to video link of the process here)

Place each knot in one of the cupcake tins and bake for 25 minutes, or until golden brown. Let cool completely and sprinkle with powdered sugar if desired
