Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) for conventional settings or 200°C (390°F) for electric non-fan ovens.
  2. Place two sheets of puff pastry on a clean, floured surface. Drizzle two tablespoons of honey over each sheet.
  3. Sprinkle the crumbled blue cheese, grated Parmesan, chopped walnuts, and fresh thyme over the pastry sheets. Season with sea salt and cracked pepper.
  4. Roll each pastry sheet tightly into a log shape and slice each log in half lengthwise.
  5. Gently twist each half-roll into a spiral and place onto a lined baking sheet.
  6. Brush each twisted pastry with milk, then bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.
  7. Let the pastries cool slightly before serving, garnished with fresh thyme.
