Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 egg yolk
- 1 tablespoon milk
- 1/2 cup blueberry jam
- 1 egg, beaten
Instructions
- Begin by preheating your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Add the flour, butter, sugar, egg yolk, and milk into a large mixing bowl.
- Mix the ingredients together until the dough forms a smooth ball. Be careful not to overmix the ingredients.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1/4 inch thick. Use a cookie cutter or a round cup to cut out circles in the dough.
- Place the circles on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Using a small spoon, place a dollop of blueberry jam in the center of each circle of dough.
- Brush the edges of the circles with the beaten egg.
- Bake the pastries for about 15-20 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.
- Let the pastries cool before serving.
Tips
If you’re short on time, you can use store-bought blueberry jam instead of making your own.
You can also change up the flavor of the jam to suit your taste. Try raspberry, strawberry, or apricot jam instead of blueberry.
If you don’t have a cookie cutter or a round cup, you can use a knife to cut out the circles in the dough.
You can also sprinkle some powdered sugar on top of the pastries before serving for added sweetness.
