Is there anything easier than rolling up goodies inside some puff pastry? If there is, I don’t know it. I love recipes like these since it’s just super hard to mess it up. These garlic Parmesan puffs are a great way to feed a crowd. Party food FTW!
Feel free to peruse my pie archive for more recipes that use both homemade and pre-made pastry dough. There are tons of ways to go there: savory, sweet, Harry Potter-inspired!
One roll of pastry can whip out a lot of sweet little appetizers. Give some a try! But really, none are as easy as these garlic Parmesan puffs. Only a few ingredients for pretty high-impact flavor.
The herb and cheese mixture is an easy mix of Parmesan, Italian seasoning, salt, black pepper, a little paprika, and of course, lots of garlic. It’s in the name for a reason.
Rolling up the herbs creates lots of flavor layers in an already layer-y, flaky dough. Every bite is full of something tasty. This is especially nice since sometimes with filled dough, you end up with some extra dough edges filled with nothing. Plus, we’re literally covering the outside of the pastry with the herb dressing, too. So much yum.

Ingredients
- 3 Tbsp olive oil
- 3 Tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tsp minced garlic (fresh or dried)
- 2 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 tsp paprika
- 1 sheet refrigerated puff pastry sheet
Instructions
- Preheat you oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Let puff pastry thaw for about 30 minutes, until it's pliable but still cold.
- In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, Parmesan, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, parsley, salt, and pepper, and set aside.
- Roll out the puff pastry. Brush about half of the olive oil mixture on top, then roll on itself as shown. Cut small rolls about 1 to 2 inches thick.
- Place the rolls onto the baking sheet and brush each with the remaining olive oil mixture. Sprinkle with a bit of paprika.
- Bake until golden, about 8-10 minutes, and serve warm.

It’s one that I know my friends would enjoy, we all LOVE garlic.
My friends are VERY easy to please, just give them a plate with yummies on it and they’re happy! 🙂
Now if I can just get them to help with some of the dishes…… LOL!
Have a great day Catherine!
You are so fun, Dalia! You have to let me know if your friends like these. My mom ended up getting a ton and raved, but she’s easy to please.
how large do you roll out the dough to be before topping with garlic and cheese?
