Pepperoni Pastries – two ingredients to a delightful canape that is sure to delight your family and friends!

I adore simple recipes, and this one is no exception. Let’s face it, it doesn’t get much more simple than this.

Although simple, Pepperoni Pastries do not lack on flavour! They are a taste explosion. Make them your own – I also like to serve my Pepperoni Pastries with a dollop of basil pesto, or a sprinkle or parmesan cheese.

They are fantastic for entertaining and are great made in advance or at the last minute. You can enjoy the Pepperoni Pastries straight from the oven, or once they have cooled down.

This is the second of three recipes that I have written for Erica from Bring Your Own Kombucha. If you saw my post yesterday, you would have read about my excitement at collaborating with her for a series of recipes perfect for the American Football season. (Or any other celebration or entertaining occasion too, of course!) 🙂

I wanted to create a quick savoury bite that takes minutes to create, which is why I am so excited to share this recipe with you.

Please let me know what you think of these tasty morsels in the comments! If you missed my post yesterday, you can check it out here: Caramel Fudge

Enjoy!

Ingredients

  • 140 g salami or pepperoni
  • 180 g butter puff pastry I used one sheet of Pampas

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 220 Degrees C (430 F)

  2. Using a cookie or pastry cutter, cut small rounds of pastry out - the size may depend on the size of the pepperoni/salami you are using. 

    For this recipe, I used a 5cm cutter. It yields approximately 20 pastries from one sheet of puff pastry.

    Prick the pastry a couple of times with a fork.

  3. Slice your salami into thin slices. 

  4. Top pastry with salami.

  5. Bake for 10 minutes. Place on a cooling rack if not serving immediately, otherwise - enjoy! 

Recipe Notes

- I used one sheet of Pampas Butter Puff Pastry for this recipe

- Would also be delicious with a dollop of basil pesto on top!

- Are lovely cold, as well as straight from the oven

    mmm I can already I imagine how delicious this would be! I especially like the fact that it’s a two-ingredient recipe… i found this two-ingredient pancakes (just eggs and bananas) on the Internet and it works like wonders 😊

    These would be great appetizers for parties or perfect snacks throughout my busy day. I have to ask how many is a serving size because no one can do just one of these!

    As an Italian, I always have a question that I blend in my head because you call “Pepperoni” this sort of … meat? Sausage? In Italian “peperoni” means “sweer pepper” and it makes me strange to read this word each time instead of meat xD

    I do love pepperoni and this sounds like such a unique idea of something different to do with them! I would love to try one myself, I’ll have to try and cook some up.

    It’s always nice when you can have fast recipes for last minute moments especially when guests just show up at the door. And the pastries look just yummy!

    Oh my gosh! I never thought of using pepperoni on pastries! But why not huh? This is a good idea. But I think I would rather chop them and mix em with the filling. So excited. Wanna make these!

      Thank you so much for the feedback. This such a simple recipe, just 2 ingredients, so there’s no filling but do let me know if you make them. They are delicious. 🙂 🙂

    This is going to the top of my Eid appetizer list! I think I’ll use some basil pesto or the parmesan that you suggest or perhaps half a small mozzarella ball.

    Put pepperoni on anything and I will eat it! But I love love that these could be such yummy after school snacks!

    Fun fact, I hate pizza. But this isn’t pizza and I think the way it looks and was made would actually be really tasty.

    It looks so good and so easy to prepare..😊 I would probably be making this recipe every now and then. 😅
