Peach Puff Pastry Pouches

Ingredients:

1 egg
3 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
8 grams vanilla sugar
300 ml milk
1 teaspoon butter
Puff pastry sheets
Peaches in syrup

Instructions:

Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to the temperature specified on the puff pastry package.

Prepare the Cream Filling:
In a saucepan, whisk together the egg, sugar, cornstarch, and vanilla sugar.
Gradually add the milk while whisking continuously to avoid lumps.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook the mixture, stirring constantly, until it thickens.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the butter until melted.

Prepare the Puff Pastry:
Roll out the puff pastry sheets and cut them into squares.
Place a spoonful of the milk mixture onto each puff pastry square.
Top the milk mixture with a slice of peach from the syrup.

Assemble the Pouches:
Fold the corners of the puff pastry squares over the peaches to create a pouch.
Place the pastries on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Bake:
Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the pastries are golden brown.

Serve:
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.

Serving Suggestions:
Serve warm, dusted with powdered sugar or a drizzle of honey for extra sweetness.
Pair with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.

Cooking Tips:
Ensure the cream mixture is thickened well to prevent it from leaking out of the pastry during baking.
Use canned peaches in syrup for convenience, but fresh peaches can also be used.
