Savory Cheesy Garlic Cruffins
  1. Step 1: Warm Up the Oven, Grease the Tin!First thing, crank that oven up to 400°F (200°C). Give your muffin tin (just a standard 6-cup one) a quick spray or rub with butter so nothing sticks later. Make sure your puff pastry is thawed and ready!

  2. Step 2: Garlic Butter Time!Grab a little bowl. Toss in your soft butter, minced garlic, chopped herbs, salt, and pepper. Mix it all up ’til it’s combined and smells ridiculously good (it will!). Give it a tiny taste – need more salt? Add it! Hot tip: Make sure the butter is properly soft, not melted, otherwise it gets messy to spread!

  3. Step 3: Layer Up the GoodnessFlour your counter a tiny bit and gently roll out your puff pastry sheet. Don’t go crazy, just smooth it out into roughly a rectangle (like 10×12 inches?). Now, slather that yummy garlic butter ALL over it, edge to edge. Be generous! Sprinkle the cheese evenly right on top of the butter.

  4. Step 4: Roll, Slice, Repeat!Pick one of the long sides and roll that pastry up nice and snug, like you’re making cinnamon rolls. Pinch the end seam a little. Grab a sharp knife and slice that log into 6 rounds. Bam! Look at those pretty spirals!

  5. Step 5: Tuck ’em into Bed (The Muffin Tin!)Okay, pop each slice, swirl-side up, into a muffin cup. Don’t squash ’em! Here’s the cool part: That cheese and butter inside? As these babies bake, it’s gonna bubble up and melt all over the tops, creating that incredible golden, cheesy crust you saw in the picture. It just happens!

  6. Step 6: Bake ’til Gorgeous!Slide that tin into the hot oven and bake for about 20-25 minutes. You’ll know they’re done when they’re puffed high, beautifully golden brown, and that cheese on top is bubbly and maybe even a little crispy in spots. Your kitchen is going to smell insane right now!

  7. Step 7: Hold Your Horses! (Just for 5 mins)Okay, okay, I know you wanna grab one, but let your amazing Savory Cheesy Garlic Cruffins hang out in the muffin tin for 5, maybe 10 minutes after they come out of the oven. It helps them firm up a bit so they don’t fall apart. Then, gently ease ’em out onto a wire rack or plate. Go on, admire your handiwork!
