Background

If you’re after some Christmas nibbles that are gluten-free, vegetarian and super easy to make try these pesto Christmas tree puffs. I made them with gluten-free puff pastry, but you can use normal one too. As for garnishing - you can add other veggies or even small pieces of fried bacon, Parma ham, smoked salmon etc. These nibbles can be served warm or at room temperature.

Ingredients

1 sheet puff pastry (can be gluten-free)
2 Tbsp green pesto
2 Tbsp grated parmesan
Garnish:
Olives, chilli/red pepper, tomato bits, paprika cream etc

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 190°C. Line 2 baking sheets with baking paper.
Cut the olives, chilli or red pepper and tomatoes to tiny bits for the tree decorations. Grate the cheese.
Roll out the puff pastry and, using a cookie cutter, stamp out mini Christmas trees. Place them onto the lined baking sheets.
Brush them the pesto, then garnish them with the vegetable bits looking like dressed Xmas trees.
Scatter some grated cheese on top of each, then bake for approx. 10 minutes until golden.
Let them cool slightly or completely before serving.
