AIR-FRYER CRANBERRY WHITE CHOCOLATE PASTRY TWISTS preparation stage

You’ll Need

For the Twists
1 sheet ready-rolled puff pastry
120g white chocolate, finely chopped
4 tbsp whole cranberry sauce
Zest of 1 orange
30g chopped pecans
1 egg, beaten
Maple Vanilla Drizzle
80g icing sugar
2 tbsp maple syrup
1 tsp vanilla extract
1–2 tbsp milk
To Finish
Extra chopped pecans
Orange zest
Optional but Dangerous
Vanilla ice cream
Salted caramel sauce
White chocolate shavings
Whipped cream
Cinnamon sugar

Method

Preheat your air fryer to 180°C.

Unroll the puff pastry and cut it into 8 long strips.

Spread a thin line of cranberry sauce down the centre of each strip.

Scatter over the chopped white chocolate, orange zest and chopped pecans.

Fold each strip lengthways to enclose the filling, pressing gently to seal.

Twist each strip several times to create loose spirals.

Brush each twist with the beaten egg.

Arrange the twists in the air fryer basket, leaving space between them.

Air fry for 9–11 minutes, until puffed, deeply golden and beautifully crisp.

Whisk together the icing sugar, maple syrup, vanilla and enough milk to make a smooth drizzle.

Allow the twists to cool for 2 minutes, then drizzle generously with the maple icing.

Finish with extra chopped pecans and a little fresh orange zest.

Serve warm or just slightly cooled.

Lad Tip: Don't overload the pastry with cranberry sauce. A thin layer gives you lovely little bursts of sharp fruit throughout the twist, while too much will leak out before the pastry has a chance to puff properly. The crispy caramelised edges are where the magic happens.
