Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until it is crispy. Once cooked, transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease. Let it cool, then chop it into small pieces.
-
In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, chopped green onions, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
-
Roll out the thawed puff pastry on a lightly floured surface. Cut the puff pastry into 8 equal squares.
-
Spread a generous spoonful of the cream cheese mixture onto each puff pastry square, leaving a small border around the edges. Top the cream cheese mixture with a sprinkle of the chopped bacon.
-
Starting from one corner, gently roll up each puff pastry square into a tight spiral. Place the roll-ups seam side down on the prepared baking sheet.
-
Brush each Bacon Roll Up with the beaten egg to create a golden and shiny finish.
-
Bake the Bacon Roll Ups in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until they are puffed and golden brown.
-
Once baked, remove the Bacon Roll Ups from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.
