Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. Roll out the thawed puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface into a rectangle, about 1/4 inch thick.

  3. In a small bowl, mix the honey and almond meal together until well combined.

  4. Spread the honey and almond mixture evenly over the puff pastry sheet, leaving a small border around the edges.

  5. Sprinkle the sliced almonds on top of the honey and almond mixture.

  6. Gently roll the puff pastry sheet from the opposite sides towards the center, creating two rolls that meet in the middle.

  7. Using a sharp knife, carefully slice the rolled puff pastry into 1-inch-wide strips.

  8. Twist each strip a few times and place it on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them apart.

  9. Brush each twist with the beaten egg to help them achieve a beautiful golden color when baked.

  10. Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-18 minutes, or until the twists are puffed and golden brown.

  11. Remove the pastry twists from the oven and let them cool slightly on the baking sheet.

  12. Dust the twists with powdered sugar before serving for an added touch of sweetness.
