Ingredients
1sheet of ready roll puff pastry
250gsoft goat's cheese
6Peppadew Mild Piquante Peppers
1tbspchopped fresh thyme
1beaten egg
honey for drizzling
Instructions
To make the vol-au-vent cases
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees and line a baking sheet with greaseproof paper.
Using a circle cutter, cut out 16 circles out of the puff pastry and place on the baking tray. Take a smaller circular cutter and cut out the center of 8 of the larger circles and set them aside.
Now brush the complete circles with the egg wash and lie the circles with the missing centres on top, so that you end up with 8 vol-au-vent cases.
Brush the tops with egg wash and bake in the oven for 10-15 minutes, until crisp and golden brown. Allow to cool once cooked.
To make the filling
Whip the soft goat's cheese until smooth and stir in the rest of the ingredients.
Spoon the filling into the centre of the cooled down vol-au-vents and drizzle with honey before serving.
