Cinnamon Raisin Swirls
Cinnamon Raisin Swirls are a delicious and easy-to-make pastry that is perfect for breakfast or as a snack. These sweet and spicy treats are made with a combination of cinnamon, raisins, and a flaky pastry dough that is sure to satisfy your cravings.
To make these Cinnamon Raisin Swirls, you will need the following ingredients per serving:
- 1 sheet of puff pastry dough
- 1 tablespoon of cinnamon
- 1/4 cup of raisins
- 1 tablespoon of sugar
- 1 egg, beaten
To start, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Roll out the puff pastry dough on a lightly floured surface until it is about 1/4 inch thick. In a small bowl, mix together the cinnamon, raisins, and sugar.
Spread the cinnamon-raisin mixture evenly over the puff pastry dough, leaving a small border around the edges. Starting at one end, roll the dough tightly into a log shape. Use a sharp knife to cut the log into 1-inch slices.
Place the slices on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each one. Brush the tops of the swirls with the beaten egg.
Bake the Cinnamon Raisin Swirls for 15-20 minutes, or until they are golden brown and puffed up. Remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
These Cinnamon Raisin Swirls are a perfect combination of sweet and spicy flavors. The pastry dough is flaky and buttery, while the cinnamon and raisin filling adds a warm and comforting taste. These swirls are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or as a snack.
