Puff Pastry

Puff Pastry

Everyday

Puff pastry is a laminated dough made by repeatedly folding butter between thin layers of dough, creating hundreds of flaky, airy sheets when baked. This French-origin pastry contains no leavening agents like yeast, relying instead on steam from the butter layers to achieve its signature rise. While versatile for both sweet and savory applications – from croissants to cheese straws – its high butter content makes it one of the most calorie-dense doughs, with approximately 60% of its calories coming from fat.
