How to Make Puff Pastry Knots

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Gently unfold one sheet (14.1 oz) of puff pastry onto a lightly floured surface. Roll it out slightly to a 12x15 inch rectangle.
  3. Spread 1/2 cup of your desired filling (jam, preserves, Nutella, pesto, etc.) evenly over the dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border.
  4. Fold the dough in half lengthwise, pressing gently to seal.
  5. Gently roll the dough again to ensure the filling is sealed within.
  6. Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, cut the dough crosswise into 1/2-inch thick strips.
  7. Take each strip and tie it into a knot, pinching the ends firmly to secure.
  8. Arrange the knots on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each.
  9. Bake for 8-12 minutes, or until puffed and golden brown. Keep a close eye to prevent burning.
