PROSCIUTTO ASPARAGUS PUFF PASTRY BUNDLES
These look amazing!! I’m a fan of anything in puff pastry and love asparagus too, being Scottish I’d probably swap out the Gruyere for grated Scottish Cheddar or Red Leicester (just because they’re our favourite cheeses) but I just know Hubby will love these with a lovely crunchy green salad. Thank you so much for sharing, definitely going to try them, hugs x

Ingredients
- 1 bunch asparagus (about 12-16 ounces) ends trimmed
- 2 sheets frozen puff pastry thawed
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 8 ounces Gruyere shredded
- 12 slices prosciutto
- 1 egg beaten
- kosher salt
- pepper
Instructions
- First, Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
- Then, On a lightly floured surface, roll the puff pastry out to a large rectangle about double the original size. Square off edges and cut into 6 squares. (I use a pizza cutter to do this).
- Toss asparagus in olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
- To make the bundles, place slice of prosciutto on top of the square. I folded the prosciutto in half so that it fit nicely on the square. Follow with 3-4 stalks of asparagus (depending on size) and 1-2 tablespoons of cheese.
- Lift two opposite corners of the puff pastry squares and wrap them around the asparagus and press to seal. Brush puff pastry with egg wash. Sprinkle with more salt and pepper if desired.
- Bake until puff pastry is golden and puffed, about 12-15 minutes. Serve immediately.
