Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 2 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed 1 package, about 17.3 oz
  • 0.25 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 0.33 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 0.5 cup blueberry jam or preserves
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1 tsp lemon zest
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 0.25 tsp fine sea salt
  • 0.25 cup powdered sugar for dusting

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin pan with a little melted butter.
  • In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar, cinnamon, and salt. In another bowl, stir together the blueberry jam, lemon zest, and vanilla.
  • Unfold 1 puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface and roll into roughly a 10x12 inch rectangle. Brush lightly with melted butter.
  • Spread half of the jam mixture over the pastry, leaving a 0.5 inch border on the long sides. Sprinkle half of the cinnamon sugar over the jam, then scatter half of the blueberries evenly.
  • Starting from a long side, roll up tightly into a log. Trim ragged ends if needed. Cut the log into 6 equal pieces. For each piece, slice lengthwise down the center to expose layers, then twist the two cut halves together and coil into a spiral. Place into a muffin cup. Repeat with remaining 5 pieces.
  • Repeat Steps 3–5 with the second puff pastry sheet and remaining fillings to make 12 cruffins total.
  • Let the shaped cruffins rest for 5–10 minutes while the oven finishes heating. Brush any exposed tops with a touch more melted butter.
  • Bake for 20–22 minutes, until puffed, deeply golden, and the jam is bubbling.
  • Cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then loosen edges with a knife and transfer to a rack. Dust with powdered sugar and serve warm.

Notes

Thaw puff pastry in the fridge for best results. Swap blueberry jam for raspberry or lemon curd, and use other berries as desired. Store leftovers airtight at room temperature for 1 day or refrigerate up to 3 days; reheat at 300°F for 5–7 minutes to re-crisp.
