Ingredients
- 7 oz puff pastry (1 sheet, depending on size of packet)
- 2 tablespoon fig preserves fig jam
- ¾ cup grated cheddar or gruyere also works well
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400F/200C and line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment.
- Flatten out the sheet of puff pastry on a lightly floured surface.
- Spread a thin layer of fig preserves over the top of the pastry, leaving just a small edge without any on.
- Sprinkle over a layer of grated cheese, covering evenly.
- Roll two opposite edges into the middle - don't roll too tightly, just as it naturally rolls. Use a little water to gently help the two 'rolls' stick by brushing along the join. You might want to chill the roll before slicing to make it easier.
- Using a serrated or large, sharp knife, cut the rolled up pastry into slices then carefully transfer to the lined baking sheet.
- Bake until the pastry is crisp and golden, about 15 minutes. Nudge in any coils that have opened up too much. Leave to cool a few minutes so that the cheese can firm up before transferring to a cooling rack.

Notes
I have made these with both a sharp cheddar and gruyere along with the fig preserves and they pair well, but you can try different cheeses, as well as different jams/preserves.
