Servings: 6-8 servings 
Complexity 1/5

For the filling

• 1 pint strawberries (roasted or raw) 
• 4 tbsp Buddy Fruits Organic Strawberry Fruit Spread 
• 4 oz cream cheese, softened 
• 2 tbsp sugar
• 2 tbsp lemon juice 
• 1 egg yolk (save egg white for pastry!) 
• 1 lemon, zested 
• 1 tsp vanilla 
• 1 tsp salt 

For the pastry:

• 1 package of puff pastry dough unthawed 
• Egg white (to brush the pastry dough with) 

1. If you are roasting your strawberries, preheat the oven to 425 degrees and then roast the strawberries for 30 min.
2. In a medium bowl smash roasted strawberries and combine with cream cheese, egg yolk, lemon juice, lemon zest, salt and vanilla. 
3. On a lightly floured surface, roll puff pastry into a 13-by-11-inch rectangle about ⅛-inch thick. Transfer the dough to a parchment-lined baking pan. With a sharp knife, score a 1-inch border along the edges of the puff pastry (don’t cut all the way through).
4. Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly inside the scored border. 
5. Then evenly distribute 6 tablespoons of Buddy Fruits Organic Strawberry Fruit Spread on top of the cream cheese filling and arrange the strawberries on top in a single layer. 
6. Bake until the pastry is puffed and golden, 22 to 30 minutes. Transfer pan to a wire rack to cool for at least 20 minutes or up to 8 hours before serving. 
7. Slice and serve!
