Peanut Butter and Jelly Puffs

Serve something unexpected to mix up your breakfast routine. Our peanut butter and jelly puffs recipe is a light, flaky breakfast treat that is super simple to make and is sure to get you a high-five from the kids!

We kept things simple and used puff pastry sheets, rich and creamy peanut butter and sweet strawberry jam to make this delicious treat. You can use whatever flavor jam your heart desires or create an assortment of flavors to choose from at the table.

Puff pastry is a light, flaky, leavened pastry that rises as the water between the layers evaporates into steam during the baking process. Crimping your pastry along the sides will prevent the layers from flaking all the way to the edges.
