Ingredients

• 2 cans canned tuna
• 4 tablespoons cream cheese
• 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
• 1 small yellow onion, finely chopped
• 1 clove garlic clove, minced
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 2 tablespoons parsley, chopped
• 2 sheets pre-made puff pastry sheets
• 1 large egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Drain the canned tuna and place it in a mixing bowl. Flake the tuna with a fork to break it into smaller pieces.

Step 3

Add the cream cheese, mayonnaise, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and chopped parsley to the bowl with the tuna. Mix until the filling is well combined and creamy.

Step 4

Roll out the puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface. Cut each sheet into 12 equal squares (approximately 3x3 inches each).

Step 5

Place a small amount of the tuna filling (about 1 tablespoon) in the center of each pastry square.

Step 6

Fold each square diagonally to form a triangle, then use a fork to press and seal the edges together.

Step 7

Place the mini pies on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a small gap between each pie.

Step 8

Brush the tops of the pies with the beaten egg to create a golden, shiny crust.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pies are puffed and golden brown.

Step 10

Allow the mini tuna pies to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature!
