Krab Puffs Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • Mix all ingredients of the 1st part of the dough in a stand mixer with the hook attachment on low until everything comes together. Roll the dough out on parchment paper and shape into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick. Refrigerate while making the second part.
  • Using a paddle attachment blend the butter and 1 oz of flour until creamy. Place butter mixture onto a sheet of parchment paper and cover with another sheet of paper. Roll butter into a rectangle that is about 1/2 the size of the dough you rolled previously. Refrigerate for about 20 minutes.
  • Put the butter sheet on top of the dough sheet and fold the sides of the dough around the butter creating a "dough envelope" around the butter. Roll the dough/butter out a few times while keeping the rectangular shape. Fold the dough in a tri-fold. Cover and refrigerate for about 20-30 min.
  • Turn the dough 90 degrees from that last direction you rolled it and roll the dough out into a rectangle again. Fold in a tri-fold again and refrigerate for another 20-30 minutes. Repeat this process 2 more times until you have rolled the dough in each of the four directions.
  • At this point you can refrigerate the dough for later use or (if you wanted to skip all of the work in the previous steps you can purchase puff pastry dough and continue the recipe from here). Cut the rolled dough into squares about 1 1/2" in size and place into muffin pan.
  • In a mixer, blend cream cheese, crab and scallions until thoroughly mixed. Using a pastry bag, pipe the filling into the puff pastry squares or use a spoon to scoop filling. Bake at 375 degrees until pastry dough is golden in color (about 10 minutes). Remove from pans and cool on a wire rack. Enjoy.

    It does save a lot of time to purchase the puff pastry dough from your grocer.

    Not much for making my own puff pastry, but I'm certainly going to try this one. Thanks for sharing!
