How to Make Banana Purse In Puff Pastry
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, mash the bananas with a fork. Stir in the maple syrup until well combined.
- Unfold the thawed puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface. Cut the sheet in half lengthwise.
- Using a rolling pin, gently roll each half into a 15x5-inch rectangle.
- Cut each rectangle crosswise into thirds, creating 6 squares.
- Spoon a generous amount of the banana mixture onto the center of each square. Top with banana slices, if desired.
- Fold the corners of each pastry square to the center, meeting at the top. Pinch the corners together firmly and twist to seal.
- Arrange the pastries on the prepared baking sheet.
- Brush the pastries with milk and sprinkle evenly with sugar and cinnamon.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed.
- Let cool slightly before serving warm. Enjoy!
