Easy Homemade Palmiers

cane sugar

salt

puff pastry, thawed

Roll Out the Dough

: Sprinkle 1/2 cup of the sugar mixture onto a clean counter or surface. Unfold one sheet of puff pastry and place it on top of the sugar evenly. Sprinkle 1/4 cup more of the sugar mixture on top of the pastry sheet. Using a rolling pin, gently roll the pastry out slightly, pressing the sugar into the top and bottom. Gather excess sugar around the edges and sprinkle it on top evenly using as much sugar as the pastry will hold. You want it completely coated. 

Fold

: Use a knife to score a vertical line down the middle of the pastry sheet. Fold one half of the pastry from the edge one-third distance towards the middle. Repeat by folding it over itself 2 more times reaching the scored line. Repeat with the other side of the dough, so both sides meet in the middle. Fold the left side over the right side, like closing a book. Set to the side.

Repeat

: Sprinkle 1/2 cup more of the sugar mixture onto the same counter. Unfold the second sheet of puff pastry onto the sugar. Sprinkle the remaining sugar on top of the pastry. Repeat the rolling and folding process the same as you did the first sheet. 

Chill

: Wrap the folded doughs separately in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes. 

Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with paper paper and set aside.

Cut and Bake

Working with one dough at a time, cut the dough into slices approximately 1/2- inch wide. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, 2- inches apart, cut side up. Bake for 18 minutes, until golden brown, flipping the cookies over halfway through baking so both sides caramelize. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.

Made these for Christmas, directions easy to follow and they are so good!!!

Classic Palmiers cookies are a traditional French pastry that is made with buttery puff pastry and granulated sugar--that&#39;s it! The sugar caramelizes on the puff pastry for a sweet crunch to the airy cookie, and it takes just 30 minutes!

Palmiers Cookies (Elephant Ears)

lb puff pastry

fine sea salt

Parchment paper to line the cookie sheet.

Mix - Preheat the oven to 450°F with a rack in the center. Mix sugar and salt together. Pour 1/2 cup of sugar mixture on a clean, flat surface, such as a large wooden cutting board.

Roll - Unfold one Puff pastry sheet onto the sugared surface and spread 1/4 cup sugar over the top. With a rolling pin, roll the pastry sheet to about a 13&quot; square, pressing the sugar into the dough.

Fold 2 opposite sides into the center. Fold again and close like a book (you should have 8 layers total).

Cut the pastry log into just under 1/2&quot; pieces and arrange on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Repeat with the second puff pastry sheet.

Bake for 6-8 minutes* until the bottoms of the cookies are golden brown and caramelized (this can be hard to see, so check at 6 minutes). Flip the cookies over, reshape as needed and return to the oven for another 4 to 5 minutes until golden brown on the other side. Remove from the baking sheet to cool.

Hi Natasha, I just made a batch of these and had to have three of them after the first bite.  I always loved palmiers but never attempted to make them myself.  That's in the past now! 
 They are that good.  I now will be making these often as a fancy for afternoon tea, actually anytime I fancy anything sweet.   Thank you!

I made these again using half white sugar and half turbinado sugar. The turbinado sugar melted to make them crisper and more caramelized. Just another option to try. However you make them, they are delicious.

These cookies seem so very easy and quick. A wonderful treat to have available for the holidaysl. Thank you Natasha for sharing.

These are some of the BEST and easiest pastries I’ve ever made. Shortbread cookies used to be my favorite. These have replaced them. Sooo good

Every recipe is fully explained and made it so easy to follow . Really good and make my festive season very festive. Thank you my dear Natasha

Will try it tonight but can this be baked in air fryer?
