Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a medium skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Saute asparagus and shallot until tender, about 5 minutes.

Roll pastry out to 16x12" rectangle. Sprinkle asparagus mixture, cheese, and bacon evenly over pastry. Starting at one long end, roll pastry up tightly like a jelly roll. Place on prepared baking sheet and freeze for 15 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and cut into 1/2" thick slices. Place slices cut side up on baking sheet and brush with egg. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until puffy and golden.
