Equipment

  • Rolling Pin
  • Pastry Brush
  • Knife or Pizza Cutter
  • Baking Sheet
  • Parchment Paper

Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 1 sheet vegan puff pastry defrosted according to package instructions
  • 3 tbsp vegan butter melted, divided
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp ground cinnamon

Instructions
 

  • Defrost the puff pastry according to the package directions until soft but still cold to the touch.
  • On a lightly floured surface, gently roll out the pastry. Brush one side with half of the melted vegan butter.
  • In a small bowl, mix the sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle the mixture evenly over the buttered side of the pastry.
  • Fold the puff pastry in half (like a book) to seal in the cinnamon sugar.
  • Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, slice the dough into 8 equal strips.
  • Twist each strip and form into a loose knot or spiral. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • Brush the tops with more melted vegan butter.
  • Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 20–25 minutes or until golden brown and crisp.
  • Let cool for a minute or two, then brush with remaining butter and roll each knot in leftover cinnamon sugar for a sweet, crunchy coating.
  • Serve warm and enjoy with coffee, tea, or just a big smile.

Notes

Keep puff pastry cold before working with it for best results. You can prepare the knots in advance, refrigerate, and bake them fresh the next morning. Try different fillings like chocolate spread or Biscoff for fun variations!
