Instructions
- Firstly, get your oven going at 175° C or 350° F. Next get a baking tray and line it with non-stick baking paper.
- Let your puff pastry thaw for about 5 minutes (leaving the plastic in place that it comes on). When ready, sprinkle the sugar and cinnamon over the puff pastry and then spread it evenly with your hand.
- Once you're happy with sugar/cinnamon spread lightly mark the center line of the puff pastry and then roll in one side of the puff pastry till you meet the center line. Next, roll the other pastry sheet from the other side so you end up with something similar looking to an old scroll.
- Chop the scroll into 1/4" (6mm) slices and place them onto the lined baking tray. Make sure you give each slice enough room to expand without hitting a neighboring slice on the tray.
- Place the baking tray in the oven for approximately 12 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown and the sugar has caramelised.
- Best served hot to eager visitors... or just yourself!
Recipe Notes
This recipe is highly adaptable. Try adding some crushed nuts - walnuts, almonds, pistachios etc. You could add some maple syrup for an extra sweet hit!

Where can you find this Borg’s pastry? I live in Virginia, USA and was wondering where I might find it.
Thanks!
I am not sure if it is available in the US. I get mine in Australia. You could always ask at a health food store.
Do you have ‘Jus Roll’ chilled pastry in the States, as we have here in England? They do a range that’s accidentally vegan or ‘AV’ as we call it in our house.
Another fab recipe Anja! 🙂
They do have it in the States but to get the ‘vegan’ kind you may have to look at Wholefoods or Trader Joe’s or another health food store.
Anja, this looks amazing. They make these here in Spain but LOADED with sugar and of course animal fat so I am glad I can try this much healthier version to go with my vegan lifestyle. Tks for sharing such great recipes. 🙂
