- 1 tsp golden syrup
- 1 tsp boiled water
- 3 tbsp icing sugar
- 1.5 tsp soya milk (or other dairy alternative)

Take your puff pastry and cut into 4 equal size squares (you could ave trimmings for another bake, maybe make jam tarts at the same time and add a lattice top to them) Set the squares aside until needed.

In a saucepan heat the golden syrup and lemon juice and add your bread crumbs. Take off heat and set aside to cool slightly.
-
Cut your puff pastry squares as shown below and add the golden syrup and crumb mixture, fold the two corners over to create the criss-cross effect.

Pop in a preheated oven set at 220C/200C fan/Gas 5 for 15mins

Remove fro, the oven once beautifully browned, whilst still hot, using the pastry brush add your second glaze to create a deliciously beautiful shine, allow to cool completely
