Ingredients:
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking tray with parchment paper and set aside.
- Coarsely chop the walnuts and almonds. Place them in a medium bowl.
- Add the dried cranberries and cinnamon to the bowl. Set aside.
- Lay out the puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface.
- If the sheets are frozen, let them thaw according to the package instructions before handling.
- In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
- Once melted, stir in the brown sugar until fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
- Pour this butter-sugar mixture over the bowl of nuts and cranberries. Stir to combine all ingredients well.
- Evenly sprinkle the nut and fruit mixture over each puff pastry sheet, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Starting from one edge, gently roll each puff pastry sheet into a tight log.
- Cut each rolled log into 1-inch (2.5 cm) wide pieces. You should get about 8-10 pieces from each roll, depending on the thickness.
- Place the sliced scrolls onto the prepared baking tray, cut-side up.
- In a small bowl, beat the egg to create an egg wash. Brush the tops of each scroll with the beaten egg.
- Place the baking tray in the preheated oven.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the scrolls are golden brown and puffed up.
- Remove from the oven and allow the scrolls to cool on a wire rack for about 10 minutes.
- Serve warm or at room temperature.
Tips:
- If you find the puff pastry becomes too soft to handle, refrigerate it for a few minutes to firm up before rolling and cutting.
- Toast the walnuts and almonds lightly before using them in the recipe. This enhances their flavor and adds extra crunch.
- You can brush the tops of the scrolls with a little extra melted butter before baking for an additional layer of richness.
- For an extra burst of flavor, consider adding a dash of vanilla extract to the butter and sugar mixture.
- If you prefer, you can substitute the dried cranberries with other dried fruits like raisins or chopped dried apricots.
Once you've taken your cranberry and walnut sticky scrolls out of the oven, let them cool slightly before serving. They're best enjoyed warm, allowing the flavors to truly shine. These scrolls are not only delicious but also incredibly easy to prepare, making them a perfect choice for both novice and experienced bakers alike. Enjoy this scrumptious treat with family and friends!
