Instructions
Prepare the pastry:
Roll out the puff pastry sheet onto a clean surface. Cut the sheet in half lengthwise.
Add the pesto:
Spread your pesto of choice evenly over one half of the pastry. Use the Lovely Basil, Spicy Red Pepper, or Sundried Tomato Pesto—or mix and match for variety!
Shape the stars:
Place the other half of the pastry on top to sandwich the pesto. Using a star-shaped cookie cutter, cut out star shapes from the layered pastry.
Form the wreath:
On a fresh sheet of baking parchment, mark out a large circle (using a bowl or plate as a guide). Arrange the pastry stars along the circle, slightly overlapping, to form a wreath shape.
Brush and bake:
Lightly brush the pastry stars with oat milk to ensure a golden finish. Transfer the wreath (on the parchment) to a baking tray.
Bake:
Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F) and bake the wreath for 15–20 minutes, or until golden and puffed.
Serve:
Let the wreath cool slightly before serving. This beautiful and flavorful centerpiece is perfect for sharing! Serve alongside extra pesto for dipping!
