Quesitos are a beloved Puerto Rican pastry that combines the creamy goodness of cream cheese with the flaky, buttery layers of puff pastry. Traditionally baked in an oven, this air fryer version offers a quicker and equally delicious alternative. If you're looking to make a delightful treat that pairs perfectly with your morning coffee or serves as a sweet snack, these air fryer quesitos are a must-try!
- Make sure your cream cheese is at room temperature before mixing to achieve a smoother filling.
- Don't overfill the puff pastry to prevent it from bursting open while cooking.
- Seal the edges of the puff pastry well to keep the filling from leaking out during the air frying process.
- Brush the egg wash evenly over the pastry to achieve a beautiful golden-brown finish.
- For an extra touch of sweetness, you can sprinkle a little sugar on the quesitos before air frying them.
In just a few simple steps, you can enjoy warm, golden, and flaky quesitos right out of your air fryer. This recipe captures all the traditional flavors and textures you love, but with the added convenience of faster cooking. Whether you're making them for a family breakfast, a snack to share with friends, or just a treat for yourself, these air fryer quesitos are sure to impress. Enjoy your delightful pastry creation!
