Ingredients
- 1 medium 5.3 oz Russet potato thinly sliced
- 2 C water cold
- 3 whole garlic cloves crushed
- 1 sheet frozen puff pastry dough thawed and cut into 12 strips
- 1/2 C parmesan grated
- 1 1/2 cup mozzarella
- 1/2 C pepperoni
- 1 tbsp Italian seasoning
- 1 C marinara sauce
Instructions
- Wash and scrub the potato thoroughly. Pat dry and slice thinly into 1/8-inch rounds.
- Put the sliced potatoes in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Option to add 3 crushed garlic cloves to the water to impart more flavor.
- Par boil the potatoes for 5 minutes until they are slightly tender.
- Thaw 1 sheet of puff pastry and roll out slightly with a rolling pin. Cut into 12 equal strips.
- On a foiled lined tray generously sprayed with oil, sprinkle 1 tsp of parmesan and a pinch of Italian seasoning, then shingle 3-4 slices of the par-cooked potato slices with 3-4 slices of pepperoni. Top the slices with ~1 1/2 tbsp mozzarella, followed by a strip of the puff pastry. Push the edges of the pastry down onto the foil to slightly “seal” the puffs, allowing the contents to remain within the pastry.
- Bake in a 400-degree F air fryer for 7-8 minutes.
- Wait for the cheese to cool before trying to remove the puffs from the tray. Gently peel the potato pizza puffs off the foil. Serve with marinara sauce and enjoy!
