These Pulled Pork Pastry Puffs are flaky, golden-brown appetizers filled with tender pulled pork and gooey cheese. Perfect for parties, game days, or an indulgent snack, they’re easy to make and absolutely irresistible.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 sheet (8 oz or 225 g) puff pastry, thawed
  • 1 cup (150 g) cooked pulled pork (use store-bought or homemade)
  • 1/2 cup (60 g) shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) barbecue sauce (plus more for dipping)
  • 1 large egg, beaten (for egg wash)
  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven:

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Prepare the Filling:

  • In a bowl, mix the pulled pork with the barbecue sauce.

3. Prepare the Puff Pastry:

  • Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface to smooth out any creases. Cut the pastry into 9 equal squares (3×3 grid).

4. Assemble the Pastry Puffs:

  • Place about 1 tablespoon of the pulled pork mixture in the center of each square. Top with a small pinch of shredded cheese.
  • Fold each square diagonally into a triangle, enclosing the filling. Press the edges with a fork to seal.

5. Brush with Egg Wash:

  • Transfer the pastry puffs to the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with beaten egg and sprinkle with sesame seeds, if using.

6. Bake:

  • Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.

7. Serve:

  • Let the puffs cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with extra barbecue sauce for dipping.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, add diced jalapeños, caramelized onions, or a dash of hot sauce to the pulled pork mixture.
  • Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven or air fryer.
  • These can be frozen before baking. When ready to cook, bake from frozen, adding 3-5 extra minutes to the baking time.
