Blueberry Danish Roll
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup cream cheese
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- puff pastry
- 4 cups blueberries
- 2 tsp sugar
- 1 tsp cornstarch
- 1 whisked egg
- 2 tsp brown sugar
- 2 tsp sliced almonds
- icing
Instructions
- Mix the cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract until you have a smooth mixture. Roll out the puff pastry and spread a large strip of the cream cheese filling down the middle of it.
- Fold sugar and cornstarch into the washed blueberries. Now spoon them on top of the cream cheese filling.
- Cut 12 equally-sized strips on both sides of the pastry. Make sure that you cut deep enough into the pastry on both sides. Alternately lay the strips over the filling in a diagonal pattern. That's how the braiding is done.
- Brush egg on top of the Danish roll before covering it with brown sugar and sliced almonds. The pastry is baked at 375°F for 35 minutes. Add icing for the finishing touch before serving.
