1. Combine the sugar, ground almonds, butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and salt in a food processor. Blend on high until smooth, scraping down the sides with a spatula as needed. Sweet treats made easy in an air fryer. Try these puff pastry buns for an on the-go dessert or an after dinner delight.
2. Add the flour and pulse until the mixture comes together like a very soft dough.
3. Lay out the pastry on a surface dusted with flour and evenly spread the almond mixture on top, stopping just short of the edges all the way around.
4. Roll up the pastry into a cylinder; cut across it into eight even slices.
5. Preheat the air fryer to 190°C | 380F. Arrange four of the slices on their sides in the air fryer basket; reserve the remaining four pastries in the fridge.
6. When ready, bake the first batch of buns until puffed and golden, turning once halfway, about 20 minutes. Remove and transfer to a wire rack to cool; repeat for the remaining buns.
7. Once all the buns are baked, place the chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Melt over a half-filled saucepan of simmering water or in the microwave, cooking on high in 10-second bursts (stirring in between).
8. Dip one side of the buns into the melted chocolate to coat. Lay onto a sheet or platter lined with parchment paper and sprinkle with flaked almonds before serving.
