👩🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions
1️⃣ Prepare the Filling
- In a mixing bowl, combine spinach, artichokes, cream cheese, provolone, gruyere, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and chili flakes. Stir until well combined.
2️⃣ Assemble the Rolls
- Lay each puff pastry sheet on a clean counter and roll it into a slightly larger rectangle.
- Cut each sheet in half lengthwise, creating 4 long pieces.
- Spoon 1/4 of the spinach mixture along the long edge of each pastry strip.
- Brush the opposite edge with the beaten egg mixture.
- Roll the dough over the filling, sealing the seam. Place seam-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
3️⃣ Chill & Bake
- Brush the tops with the remaining egg wash and sprinkle with pretzel salt.
- Place in the freezer for 20 minutes to firm up.
- Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Bake for 20 minutes, or until the pastry is deep golden brown and flaky.
4️⃣ Make the Brown Butter Sage Topping
- In a small pan, melt 4 tbsp butter over medium heat.
- Add the sage leaves and cook until the butter turns golden brown and the leaves become crisp.
- Spoon the buttery sage mixture over the warm rolls for an extra layer of flavor.
5️⃣ Serve & Enjoy!
- Slice and serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce, or enjoy as-is!
🌟 Pro Tips for Perfect Pastry Rolls
✔ Thaw the puff pastry properly—let it sit in the fridge overnight or at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
✔ Don’t skip the freezing step—this helps the pastry puff up beautifully!
✔ For extra cheesiness, sprinkle parmesan on top before baking.
✔ Use fresh artichokes if desired—just cook and chop them finely.
🍷 Perfect Pairings
🥂 Drink: Pairs well with a crisp Sauvignon Blanc or a citrusy cocktail.
🍽️ Side Dish: Serve with a tangy marinara or garlic aioli for dipping.
⚠️ Common Mistakes to Avoid
🚫 Skipping the egg wash—it gives the rolls their golden, glossy finish.
🚫 Overstuffing the pastry—too much filling can cause them to burst open.
🚫 Forgetting to drain the spinach—excess moisture can make the pastry soggy.
