Ingredients
Scale
For the Crust:
- 1 sheet puff pastry (thawed)
- 1 cup mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 cup milk
- 2 large egg yolks
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar (for custard)
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon butter (melted)
- 1 tablespoon powdered sugar (for dusting)
Instructions
1. Prepare the Crust:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, combine mixed berries, 1/2 cup sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Set aside.
- In a saucepan, whisk together milk, egg yolks, 1/4 cup sugar, and flour. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until thickened. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract. Let cool slightly.
- Roll out puff pastry on a floured surface to a 12×10-inch rectangle. Spread the custard evenly over the pastry, leaving a 1-inch border on all sides.
- Spoon the berry mixture over the custard. Carefully roll up the pastry from the long side, tucking in the ends. Place seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
- Brush the top with melted butter and make a few slits to vent steam. Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown. Let cool, then dust with powdered sugar before serving.
