Step 1: Preheat the oven

• Set your oven to 400°F (200°C).
• Line a baking sheet or mini muffin tin with parchment paper.

Step 2: Prepare the puff pastry

• Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface.
• Cut into 2-inch squares using a knife or pastry cutter.
• Place squares into the cups of a mini muffin tin (or directly on a baking sheet if flat bites).

Step 3: Add the goat cheese

• Spoon about 1 teaspoon of goat cheese into the center of each pastry square.
• Make sure not to overfill to prevent overflow during baking.

Step 4: Brush with egg wash

• Beat 1 egg and lightly brush the edges of each pastry square.
• This helps create a golden, shiny finish.

Step 5: Bake

• Place in the oven and bake for 12–14 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.

Step 6: Finish with honey

• Remove from the oven and let cool for 2 minutes.
• Drizzle a small amount of honey over each bite.

Step 7: Garnish

• Sprinkle with fresh thyme or rosemary.
• Add a tiny pinch of flaky sea salt for balance.
