Ingredients

  • 1 sheet puff pastry 250 g
  • 200 g peppered ġbejna grated
  • 1 large brown onion
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 2 tbsp milk

Instructions

Caramelised onions

  • In a large skillet, heat the olive oil, add the sliced onions and season with salt. Let the onions cook over medium heat. Do not stir until they start browning. Stir and let them cook until they are all browned and caramelised. Once done, let cool and set aside until ready to use.

Assembly

  • Open on sheet pf puff pastry and spread the grated ġbejna cheese. Add the caramelised onions on top. Drizzle with honey and add the thyme.
  • From both ends roll the filled puff pastry inwards. Make sure that it's tight. Fold both ends until they meet in the middle. Wrap the dough in cling film, and place in the freezer for at least 30 minutes.
  • Line a baking tray with parchment paper. Preheat the oven to 200°C/390°F.
  • Using a sharp knife slice the palmiers about 1 cm thick. Place on the baking sheet and arrange their shape, so that they are neat. Brush with some milk.
  • Bake for about 15 minutes, making sure that you turn them over the last 5 minutes. They should have a nice golden colour.
