What Are Palmiers Made Of?
Palmiers, also known as elephant ears or palm leaves, are made of puff pastry that has been rolled out thin and spread with sugar before being folded and rolled again. The pastry is then shaped into a spiral approximation of a palm leaf, sliced thin, and baked until crispy and caramelized. The result is a sweet, flaky pastry that is perfect for serving as a dessert or snack.
