- 2 sheets Puff Pastry (store-bought)
- 100 g Granulated Sugar (can use brown sugar for enhanced flavor)
- 2 tsp Ground Cinnamon (optional: use pumpkin spice for a twist)
- 1 Egg (beaten; omit for a vegan version)
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Whisk together 100g of granulated sugar and 2 teaspoons of ground cinnamon in a small mixing bowl.
- Roll one sheet of puff pastry onto a floured surface to about 30x40cm (12×16 inches) and sprinkle half of the cinnamon-sugar mixture on top.
- Layer the second puff pastry sheet on top, sprinkle remaining cinnamon-sugar mixture, and press down lightly.
- Slice the stacked pastry into 1.5-2cm wide strips, then cut each strip into three smaller sections to form plaits.
- Twist each plaited piece gently and arrange in a circular wreath shape on the baking sheet, overlapping ends slightly to seal.
- If you have leftover pastry strips, shape them into bows and add them alongside your palmiers.
- Bake for 18–20 minutes until puffed and golden brown.
- Allow to cool slightly on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack.
