Serves 6 to 8 as a snack

Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 10 minutes

Cooking Time 15 minutes

Ingredients

2 x 250 g puff pastry sheets
250 g icing sugar
1 lemon, juiced
water

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 250°C. Cut the pastry into different shapes – squares, circles, rectangles – or plait them. Place on a baking tray lined with baking paper and bake until golden brown, about 7–12 minutes. Allow to cool.

2. Combine the icing sugar, lemon juice and water and whisk to make a runny icing. You can colour the icing if you’d like to. Drizzle over the pastry and serve.

Cook’s note: Add chopped nuts, breakfast seed mixture, grated chocolate or cake decorations.
