Easy Puff Pastry Beef Rolls Recipe

These Easy Puff Pastry Beef Rolls are filled with seasoned ground beef, cream cheese, onions, and garlic, then wrapped in flaky puff pastry and baked until beautifully golden. They're perfect for parties, holiday gatherings, game days, or a comforting family dinner.

Ingredients
  

For the Filling
  • * 1 pound ground beef
  • * 1 small onion finely diced
  • * 2 cloves garlic minced
  • * 4 ounces cream cheese softened
  • * 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • * 1 teaspoon paprika
  • * Salt to taste
  • * Black pepper to taste
#### For the Pastry
  • * 2 sheets puff pastry thawed
  • * 1 egg beaten (for egg wash)

Equipment

  • Large skillet
  • * Mixing spoon or silicone spatula
  • Cutting board
  • Chef's knife
  • * Measuring cups and measuring spoons
  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • pastry brush
  • Rolling pin (optional)
  • cooling rack

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to **400°F (200°C)**. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ground beef and diced onion, cooking until the beef is browned and the onion is tender. Drain any excess grease.
  3. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
  4. Remove the skillet from the heat and mix in the softened cream cheese, Worcestershire sauce, paprika, salt, and pepper until smooth and creamy. Let the filling cool for 10 minutes.
  5. Roll out the thawed puff pastry sheets if needed and cut each sheet into rectangles about **3 x 4 inches**.
  6. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the beef mixture onto one end of each pastry rectangle.
  7. Roll each rectangle tightly, tucking in the sides slightly, and place seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
  8. Brush the tops evenly with the beaten egg.
  9. Bake for **18–22 minutes**, or until the pastry is puffed and deep golden brown.
  10. Let cool for 2–3 minutes before serving warm.

Notes

Cool the filling before assembling to keep the puff pastry light and flaky.
* Don't overfill the pastry or it may split while baking.
* Brush generously with egg wash for a crisp, shiny finish.
* These rolls can be assembled a day ahead and refrigerated before baking.
* Freeze unbaked rolls for up to 3 months. Bake from frozen, adding 5–7 minutes to the baking time.
* Serve with ranch dressing, garlic aioli, honey mustard, or your favorite dipping sauce.
