Made these Almond Puff Rolls last week. Besides the flaky crust of the puff pastry, I also loved the almond filling very much. I used frozen puff pastry as I was too lazy to make the pastry myself and moreover the almond spread was very quick to prepare. Really hope you'll try this recipe if you're an almond fan. It's so easy to make and delicious too, not too sweet and fragrant with every bite. Also great to serve this at party.
Almond Puff Rolls
- Ingredients:
11-12 pcs Frozen puff pastry sheets (size about 4 x 4 inch) cut from 2-3 frozen puff pastry
Filling - Almond Spread
250g Almond meal/ground
1/2 tsp Almond essence
85g Icing sugar
1/2 tsp Vanilla powder/extract
1 tbsp Lemon juice
Method:
- Preheat oven to 200 degree C.
- Combine Filling ingredients to make a thick paste. Dilute with milk to make almond spread.
- Take one large thawed puff pastry, prick holes with a fork and cut into 4 equal sizes. Dust some flour if you find the puff pastry a little sticky.
- Spread a generous almond spread over pastry with a palette knife but leave edges alone and brush some milk on pastry while rolling it up. Poke some holes with a fork and press to seal. Use a sharp knife to slit some lines on the surface.
- Lastly brush the top with some milk and sprinkle some coarse sugar or almond flakes on it.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown.
Enjoy!

Deletehi,,may i know where to get this ready made puf pastry
ReplyDeletehere in singapore,,first time baker pls help,,

You can get the frozen puff pastry at Cold Storage or Phoon Huat.
DeleteThanks for sharing! I am a almond fan, so i will definitely bookmark this for trying :)
ReplyDeletePlease feedback to me after trying it.
DeleteKids will love it for sure and so will I. Perfect party snack
ReplyDeleteYou may like to increase the sugar a little as kids usually have sweet tooth. :)
DeleteYum! I love puff pastry too. It's so convenience to use and always taste good. :) Can't wait to try this one.
ReplyDeleteAmy, I'm sure you'll definitely create a better one.
DeleteAnn, these almond puffs look so delicious! And it seems quite easy to make too :)
ReplyDeletePhong Hong, have a try. You can have finished product within one hour.
Delete哇哇哇哇哇。。。
ReplyDelete这个又香又脆，怎么半
我流口水了啦(^O^)
真的很香，脆脆的，好吃！
Delete赶快做啦！
Ooo, looks flaky and yummy! I love almond filling in any bakes! These golden rolls will be very presentable on CNY too!
ReplyDeletePuff pastry is my favourite....regardless sweet or savoury filling. I would love to try this out soon too. Thank you lots and lots.
ReplyDeleteHi Ann, I could do with this for my afternoon snack right now... yummy!
ReplyDeleteI am sure I also would use the ready puff pastry :) the filling sounds really amazing!
ReplyDeleteWow! This is really delicious! I will be going to Phoon Huat tomorrow to get the pastry. My family will love this...thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteAi li, remember to thaw the pastry inside the fridge at least few hours or overnight in the fridge.
DeleteAnn, you think I can freeze them and bake when we want to eat? I bought a 1kg pack (6pcs) of the frozen puff pastry from PH today. Will it be too small if I cut them into half? Thanks!
DeleteSorry, I mean I cut each roll into half. Will it be too small?
DeleteYes you can roll the filling inside the puffs and put them in the freezer. I think better to bake first then cut. If cut then bake, I'm afraid the filling will split out during baking. You can also fold them into triangle, anyway convenient to you.
DeleteThank you for always being so helpful! Really appreciate it! Thanks again!
DeleteAnn, I baked this today. It is very nice except I think I never put enough filling so its not sweet enough and the taste of almond is very mild. However, I did manage to get 11pcs and used 3 sheets of the puff pastry. So actually didn't know where did I go wrong. But its still very nicy and yummy!
DeleteSometime the sizes of the puff pastry might be a little different. Next time you can make to 10 pcs and increase the icing sugar and almond essence if you like.
DeleteAnn, you could be right - the size of the pastry. Did you buy yours from PH? Increasing the almond essence won't make it taste and smell artificial? I think I also rolled too tightly and the pastry does not look as flaky as in your pictures above. Anyway, we still like them but will seek to improve....thanks, Ann!
DeleteAi Li, Actually my friend bought the frozen puff pastry from a factory. It comes in a carton of 100 sheets, about 4 x 4 inch at 30cts each. I took 30 sheets from her.
DeleteThe almond paste should have a mild taste of almond, can increase to 3/4 tsp essence but not too much. No need to roll the pastry to very tight but must seal properly.
这个好好吃得样子。。一定要试做。。：）
ReplyDelete真的很好吃 :)
DeleteHmm...I just may have to try and keep these in the fridge!
ReplyDeleteThe almond pastry look so great! I love lazy ideas, lol.
ReplyDeleteOh yes I am gonna try this. This is one of my fave pastry at Swissbake besides their bread. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteGinny
You're welcome :)
DeleteWow, just had my dinner, don't mind having this for dessert!
ReplyDeleteSure, share with you anytime.
DeleteThey look delicious especially with the thick almond paste in it. I will definitely try this out once I get some store bought puff pastry.
ReplyDeleteYou like almond? Must try this ... :D
Delete这我也没试过呢，第一次看过！
ReplyDelete那就试试看吧！
DeleteThese puff rolls look crazily good with almond filling!
ReplyDeleteThese look addictive! Great idea for parties. I need to make these too. I suppose I can use marzipan as filling. I still have a few packets of marzipan. Must experiment with it. Thanks very much for sharing. Hope you have a great week.
ReplyDeleteNot sure whether mazipan is too sweet. Can use almond flakes. Toast it before you blend the flakes into powder.
DeleteAnn , your flaky almonds rolls look really yummy ! Just love the almond filling :)
ReplyDeleteAnn, I must try this since you highly recommend it, I never get disappointed after trying your recipes heeheehee...
ReplyDeleteThanks Jess!
DeleteHi Ann,
ReplyDeleteHappy 2013!
These pastry look very delicious with lots of puff and crunch! Yum!
Zoe
Any left for me?
ReplyDeleteSorry not now... I'll make the 2nd batch soon.
DeleteVery creative....your puff rolls look like those store bought ones!
ReplyDeleteGood to have this for afternoon tea.
ReplyDeleteSorry, turn up so late for these almond rolls. I don't think that I have seen this in Sydney before for so many years, sounds like a new and interesting recipe to me. Shhh, I never make the puff pastry from scratch though I have time last time, haha! Indeed, it is a great dish to be served in the party!
ReplyDeleteJessie, So happy you're finally back for blogging. Last time I liked to make the puff pastry myself but now really lazy lah...
DeleteMy goodness! That crunch with the moist almond filling must be divine! Yummy!
ReplyDeleteYour photos are toooo tempting Ann! :D
Lynne
Thanks Lynne :) Your bakes always look delicious too!
DeleteI always enjoy almond-accented bakes - cookies, biscuits, cakes. These puff rolls sounds really good.
ReplyDeleteAnn,
ReplyDeleteI love bakes with almonds.
Your puff rolls sounds really tempting!
I will try to bake this.
mui
These almond puff rolls looked really pretty and delicious. Thanks for sending it to Tea Tattle Thursday.
ReplyDeleteHi Ann
ReplyDeleteIn the almond spread filling, you mentioned that to dilute with milk to make almond spread, how much milk to be added in? Just enough to mix all the ingredients to come together?
Oops! sorry Mel and thank you for telling me. Luckily I scribbled down the recipe in my note book. Is 4 tbsp of milk to be added last.
