Ingredients

  • 2 sheets of puff pastry 17.5 ounce package 
  • ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
  • ¼ cup salted pecans 
  •  cup salted pistachios 
  • ½ cup sugar 
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon 
  • Zest of one orange or lemon 
  • Silan or honey for drizzling optional 

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Roll puff pastry between two sheets of parchment paper to form a 12-inch square. Cut into 12 long strips. Note: Make sure puff pastry is as cold as possible while making the recipe. Place in fridge as necessary. Repeat with second sheet of puff pastry.
  • Place pecans and pistachios in a blender, food processor or spice grinder (or use a sharp knife), to create coarse crumbs. Combine nuts with sugar, cinnamon, orange zest and salt.
  • Brush extra virgin olive oil over puff pastry strips and dip into nut-sugar mixture so strip is fully coated. Twist strip 4 to 6 times.
  • Place twists onto parchment lined sheet and bake at 400°F for 12 to 15 minutes, until golden brown. While still hot, drizzle honey or silan over twists
