Description
Move over, bacon-wrapped asparagus! These air fryer asparagus puff pastry bundles are a fun and delicious way to enjoy your veggies. The pastry is crispy and golden brown, and the asparagus is perfectly tender. Plus, they're easy to make - just wrap the asparagus in pastry, brush with a little egg wash, and bake! Serve them as an appetizer or a side dish, and watch them disappear fast.
Ingredients
- 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 18 asparagus spears, 3 per bundle
- 1 cup Mozzarella Cheese, 2 to 3 tablespoons butter bundle
- 1 large egg
- 1/4 cup Romano Parmesan, 2 teaspoons per bundle
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Roll out the puff pastry sheet into a rectangle about twice its size. Cut the puff pastry into 6 equal pieces, using a pizza cutter or a sharp knife. Lightly drizzle olive oil over the asparagus and salt and pepper to taste.
- Place the asparagus spears diagonally across the center of each cut piece of pastry and top each one with 2 to 3 tablespoons of grated mozzarella cheese.
- Fold free edges over the filling, forming a bundle. In a small bowl, beat the egg well to make an egg wash. Brush the tops of each bundle with egg wash and sprinkle with the Romano Parmesan cheese.
- Place the bundles into the air fryer basket and cook in the air fryer at 370 degrees F, air fryer setting for 6-7 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown.
- Plate, serve, and enjoy!
