Ingredients:
1 bunch asparagus ends trimmed
2 tsp olive oil
salt and pepper to taste
1 sheet puff pastry fresh or thawed
150 g dairy-free herb cream cheese
6 dairy-free cheese slices
To Brush:
2 tbsp non-dairy cream
1 tsp olive oil
To Garnish (optional)
1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves
Fresh lemons
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 218°C. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Toss together the asparagus, olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Roll the pastry sheet out on a floured surface and use a pizza cutter to cut it into 6 or 8 squares (depending on size).
Spread the dairy-free cream cheese on each square. Follow with a slice of dairy-free cheese and 3-4 stalks of asparagus (depending on size). Take 2 corners of the pastry and wrap them up and over the asparagus, pressing to seal. Repeat with remaining squares, then arrange them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each bundle.
Brush each pastry with non-dairy cream and a drizzle of olive oil. Transfer them to the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until puffed and golden brown.
Sprinkle with more salt and pepper and thyme if desired and serve immediately with a drizzle of lemon juice.
