Ingredients
-
1
1 ready rolled puff pastry
-
1 cup
golden caster sugar
-
2 tablespoons
ground cinnamon
-
Zest of 1 orange
Directions
-
Mix the sugar, ground cinnamon and orange zest in a bowl. Then sprinkle the sugar mix on a clean flat surface.
-
Remove the ready rolled puff pastry from the box, unroll and lay on top of the sugar mix covered surface.
-
Roll both the ends lengthwise until they both meet in the middle. Another way of doing this is to fold both ends into the middle then fold again. Then tug the ends in so it forms a long rolled cylinder.
-
Let the rolled puff pastry rest in the refrigerator for 1 hour or in the freezer for about 20 minutes.
-
Remove from refrigerator and cut in about 1cm thick. Place these cut pieces flat on a baking sheet and bake in a pre-heated oven at 180C for about 10-15 minutes.

When ready, let cool on a cooling rack. Make some tea and enjoy those palmiers at its freshest.
