Steps:
- Preheat oven to 200c.
- Mix all ingredients together (except pastry sheets).
- Lay pastry sheets (with plastic attached) out on your counter.
- Fill a large piping bag (no nozzle) with the mix and squeeze out a long line of mix down the long edge of the pastry-about 1/2 an inch in from that edge.
- No piping bag? Divide mix in 4 and spoon this along the long edge.
- Roll up, peeling the plastic away as you roll.
- Seal the inner edge with a little water.
- Cut each of these rolls into three, then cut each smaller roll ALMOST through in the middle (leave the bottom intact). When they are cooked, I cut them right through to make a bite sized roll, but cooking them this way keeps them moister.
- Place on a baking tray, brush each with a little milk, then cook in pre heated oven for about 20 minutes or until golden brown on top and cooked through.
SPINACH-FETA CRESCENTS
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Put the spinach in a kitchen towel and wring very dry (to get about 1/2 cup dry spinach). Put the spinach into a large bowl, breaking up the clumps with your fingers. Add the cream cheese, feta, scallions, dill, Parmesan, lemon zest, 1/2 teaspoon salt and some black pepper. Mix well.
- Lightly flour your hands and work surface. Unroll the crescent dough and separate into triangles along the perforated lines. Put about a tablespoon of filling at the shortest end of a triangle, and roll. Place the roll, point-side down, on the prepared baking sheet, tucking in the ends to form a crescent shape. Repeat with the remaining triangles and filling, spacing the rolls at least 1 inch apart on the baking sheet.
- Brush the dough with the egg wash and bake until puffed and golden brown, about 12 minutes. Let the crescents cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a cooling rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.
