Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Grease a mini muffin tin generously with cooking spray.
2. Dust the counter and rolling pin with flour. Roll the puff pastry sheet into a rectangle about 10 by 15 inches.
3. Cut the pastry into 24 squares, about 2.5 inches each (4 columns by 6 rows). Press each square into a muffin cup to form a cup, then prick the bottom of each cup twice with a fork so it does not puff too much.
4. Put about ½ to ¾ teaspoon of fig jam into each cup. Add a few crumbles of goat cheese and about 1 teaspoon of chopped walnuts or pecans.
5. Beat the egg in a small bowl with a fork and brush it on the edges of the pastry to help it turn golden.
6. Bake 12 to 14 minutes, until the pastry is golden brown and the cheese is melty.
7. Take the tin out of the oven and sprinkle each bite with a little chopped rosemary and a pinch of flaky sea salt. Cool 5 minutes, then lift each bite out with a fork. Makes 24 bites.
