Puff pastry with potatoes - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, you can make them without eggs. For the filling, simply omit the eggs from the mashed potatoes. For the egg wash, you can use a plant-based milk or a little olive oil brushed on top to help with browning. The pastries will still be delicious, though the crust might be slightly less golden.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. For best results, reheat them in an oven or toaster oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 5-10 minutes to restore their crispiness. Avoid the microwave, as it will make the pastry soggy.
Absolutely! You can assemble the pastries up to the point of baking, then cover and refrigerate them for up to 24 hours. When you're ready, brush them with the egg wash and bake directly from the fridge. You might need to add an extra minute or two to the baking time.
Yes, they freeze very well. After assembling, place the pastries on a baking sheet and freeze them solid. Then, transfer to a freezer-safe bag or container for up to 3 months. To bake, no need to thaw—just add a few extra minutes to the baking time and bake from frozen until golden brown.
They're quite versatile! Serve them as a snack, an appetizer, or even a light meal. A simple green salad, a bowl of soup (like tomato or broccoli cheddar), or some fresh vegetables with dip make for excellent companions. They're also great for breakfast with a fried egg on the side.
If your pastry is tearing, it's likely too warm. Pop the dough and your rolling pin in the freezer for 5-10 minutes to firm up. When rolling, use a light dusting of flour on the surface and your pin to prevent sticking. Be gentle and work quickly to avoid overworking the dough.
